Look for the Puppet Show at Comic Con 2005

Newsarama has an interview with Neil Gaiman and Mike Carey about Carey's adaptation (with artist Glenn Fabry) of Gaiman's novel Neverwhere--which was itself based on a miniseries he scripted for the BBC--to be published this fall by Vertigo, the DC "mature readers" line that introduced Gaiman to America's cool kids via Sandman a lot longer ago than I care to dwell on, what with having had a birthday recently and all. Says Carey:

“It's like being called in to add a new wing to a stately home: you're always going to worry about how your efforts are going to look when they're part of that whole. But so much of working in comics is like that, and so much of the enterprise has always been collaborative and cumulative in exactly that way. We're all of us standing on the shoulders of giants, throughout most of our creative lives. You get used to it, without--I hope--ever getting blasé or casual about it.”
