Definitions for "Gerhard"
Gerhard is the professional name of a Canadian comics artist known for the elaborately detailed background drawings in Dave Sim's series Cerebus the Aardvark, on which he has worked since that comic's 65th issue. Occasionally joking that he "draws tables and chairs behind an aardvark" (since Sim pencils and inks the characters and Gerhard pencils and inks the backgrounds), many issues of the comic contain at least as much work from Gerhard as Sim. He is also fond of photography (some later issues of the comic book have covers based on his scenic photos) and sailing.
