Are you surprised by that, considering it says Quesada in the left corner?

Suns are well-known for their anger.

Sonic/Mega Man crossover comic happening.

Ian Potto and I are the same age and were involved in Sonic fandom at the same time.  I skipped a grade, so I expect I was probably a freshman in college and pretty much done with the Sonic comics around the time he was mailing in submissions.  Once in awhile I wonder what might have been.  I wouldn't really want to work for Archie, but on the other hand it would probably be more fun than my current day job.

Yeah, seems like it'll have the same feel, basically.

Oh hey, here are some annotations for Century: 2009.

Again, I think the references are less all-consuming than in the previous issue, but they're still interesting.

(And it turns out nobody ELSE knows who the fuck those people in the "Will Mockney for Food" panel are supposed to be, either!)

Neil Gaiman is writing a prequel to Sandman.

I don't know what the appropriate level of cynicism for this event is, but it does seem to be following up on an opening whose existence was established right in the first issue of the original, and at the end of the day it is still Neil Gaiman.

So they're making prequels to all the DC heavy hitters? Maybe they'll call Alan Moore back for a Swamp Thing OOOH oops.

Well, Williams is certainly a good fit.  And while I think Sandman is fine the way it is, it's certainly a better universe to expand than Watchmen.  (I never did read Endless Nights or whatever the last post-conclusion collection was.  Somebody told me he should have ended it with The Wake and I certainly FELT like The Wake was a pretty obvious ending point.)

I'm not quite so ecstatic as some people about more Sandman, but I'm always happy to hear Gaiman's writing more comics.  Will see how it goes.
