He's got to be good-looking ’cause he’s so hard to see.

I really don't think further comment is necessary.

I understand Slug's portraits of him are drawn from life.

I'm sure there's a FAQ somewhere that says he's never been photographed.
However, I did find this article, make what you will of it.

More or less like the IPU....

Well, as everyone knows, to protect Cecil's privacy, Ed stands in as a body double.
However, I have it on good authority that he attended Lollapalooza in Grant Park last summer, and a photograph showing him does exist on the Internet. It's here (http://dakotaroo.com/backblog/wp-content/Chicago%20crowd.jpg). Cecil is in the 78th row left, about 8 from the edge. :)
