This is where Cerebus began to be hard to read for me. I loved Cerebus up until this book. There is nothing like Cerebus, the books are funnier and more thought provoking than I ever expected. I'll probably forget how weird this book made me feel at times and read the next one in a year or so, based off of my nostalgia for the earlier books. But hopefully I read this review first, and then go and read something else, and remember Cerebus for the good times we had, and not descend into the isolated, misogynistic, mystical, masochistic dungeon where Sim trapped his mind in these later years.
Cerebus gets meta-physical once again. He ascends to the Eight Sphere and has a talk with one of the gods of his universe. In the mean time, Roach turns into Punisherroach and starts a small rule of his own, killing the Cirinists in passing (which turns out to be quite funny...).
Boy, I truly hope that the story will come down from the high philosophy it has gotten into... :) Don't know what to wait from the next book.
