iFanboy - Episode 54 - So Sad

The topic of Neil Gaiman's Sandman has long been one of controversy at the iFanboy offices. Ron took up the challenge and read the whole epic, and Conor jumped in too. Did Lord Morpheus, the Dream King have anylasting effect? You will certainly be surprised by what transpires within.

@brokennarcissist: I read the Walking Dead and the Green Lantern books. I haven't read a good indie comic in a while; I should get on that.

@InfernalApocalypse Pretty much out of comics these days as well, only read Fables, Sweet Tooth and the odd indie book.

@brokennarcissist: I'm suddenly glad I only read the Fables titles and Madame Xanadu. I take it Hellblazer has not been good since Mike Carey left?

Vertigo has degenerated into a sequential 'art' variant of HBO. All stories and characters are interchangeable, teenage agnst with gratuitous deciptions of violence and sex. A far cry from what the imprint once was, gone are the British writers. At least their voices weren't uniform. A book like Sandman wouldn't see the shelves today despite the suppose 'best age' of comics.
