Swamp Thing 88 not the last

88 wasn't supposed to be the last issue of Veitch's swamp thing, it went on for three more issues.

Cerebus

The A-V section of the bibliography needs further explanation. Were there backup stories he contributed to or something? Or were those the issues in which Veitch appeared as a character? I'm quite certain nobody but Dave Sim ever wrote Cerebus, and for the most part nobody but he and Gerhard ever drew it. I think there were one or two occasions when a guest artist would draw one character into a story otherwise illustrated by Sim and Gerhard (I'm pretty sure the Flaming Carrot issue was done this way) but I don't think I ever heard of Veitch doing this. 50.72.9.214 (talk) 11:16, 20 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't add this but I can verify that they were backup stories, not Cerebus material. Here are links to the GCD pages clarifying what was what: #126 had a preview excerpt from The One; #137 had a preview excerpt from Brat Pack; #180, #181, and #182 had some of Veitch's Rare Bit Fiends strips. I don't know what the right way would be to reference these in the bibliography. ←Hob 03:54, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
