More Sandman Coming From Neil Gaiman [SDCC 2012]



If there are two things that I learned from working in a comic shop, it's that 1) there's always going to be ONE guy who is way too particular about how he wants his comics handled (no creases or blemishes, never opened, only touched on the sides with fingertips, placed into a current-sized comic bag with board "shiny side down" with opening at the bottom, NEVER taped shut, immediately placed inside a small brown paper bag, and placed delicately under the counter away from all other books and all sunlight) and 2) just about everyone has read and loves Neil Gaiman's Sandman.

Well good news, Sandman-fans... Gaiman is back at it.

Sunday Short Story (3/18/12): Hangover Edition!



I know yesterday was St. Patrick's day and a lot of you probably don't feel up to reading a short story after your drunken night of green-tinted debauchery, so instead of presenting you with something to read, here's author Neil Gaiman (who is like, the best) reading the first chapter of his Newberry Medal winning young adult novel, The Graveyard Book. Technically it's a YA book, but honestly it's so good I would recommend it to anyone.  Enjoy!

Remember, Sunday Short Story is still taking submissions of either stories you wrote, or great ones on the internet you think we should feature!  Just send me an e-mail with the subject Sunday Short Story!
