Whole Sort of General Mish Mash

it’s funny to be able to tweet this, because it sounds so epic, but: neil gaiman is writing sandman.

I miss them still..

I always assumed they were paintings.

“There’s a tale in the Caballa that suggests that the Angel of Death is so beautiful that on finally seeing it (or him, or her) you fall in love so hard, so fast, that your soul is pulled out through your eyes.

I like that story.

There’s an Islamic story that declares that the Angel of Death has huge wings covered in eyes, and that as each mortal dies one of its eyes closes, just for a moment.

I like that story too, and take pleasure in imagining huge wings, and a ripple of ever-opening, ever-closing beautiful eyes.

And there’s a touch of wish fulfillment in there too. I didn’t want a Death who agonised over her role, or who took a grim delight in her job, or who didn’t care. I wanted a Death that I’d like to meet, in the end. Someone who would care.

Like her.”

—Neil Gaiman

Task accomplished.

Psst. News.

He answered my question!

He acknowledged my existence!

The all-ten-volumes-in-one-slipcase-edition of SANDMAN comes out in November! I’m thrilled. You have no idea how long I’ve been asking DC to do one of these. (Er, about 16 years.)

(Edit to add: lots of questions coming in. I believe it’ll be about $199, so the books are cover price but the slipcase is free. Probably cheaper places that discount books. These are the recoloured editions that use the Absolute edition recolouring of the first few books. And last time DC did something like this they also sold the slipcase separately.)

WANT IT.

I forgot all about this!  I remember how parents were horrified over this comic…  but I think it did some good back then, might even do some good now!

Ah, yes. Good stuff.

And I know I’ve posted it before but it’s worth a reblog just for how uncomfortable John looks.
