About this deal

Gaiman, Neil (30 April 2005). "The Speech I Just Gave at the Nebulas". neilgaiman.com. Archived from the original on 7 May 2005.

The first and the third shorts are fairly sex-obsessed in the way you'd expect an aging famous writer with a somewhat younger wife to write. The second one is grotesque and fairly cryptic at the end. Also, you would think Neil Gaiman hates cats given the number of times I've had to hear about or see them being killed in truly horrifying ways in his works. The last story and the epilogue are the same, which kinda ruins the epilogue idea - or rather I should just say the book has a prologue but no real epilogue.

The Day I Swapped My Dad for Two Goldfish (read by Gaiman, released by HarperChildrensAudio in 2004, ISBN 0-06-058701-6) The series has been solicited through issue #21 [9] [10] [11] but these remaining issues ended up being cancelled, in part due to the COVID-19 pandemic. [12] Fragile Things (stories and poems from the eponymous collection — read by Gaiman, released by HarperAudio in 2006, ISBN 0-06-114237-9) That theme is carried through Gaiman’s cameos, too, a practice that carries through into the second episode, “Feeders and Eaters.” In both cases he’s a presence within the story,commenting on it but, as he himself advocates, never explaining it. The Sandman Presents: The Furies (with Gaiman credited as "consultant"; written by Mike Carey, drawn by John Bolton, graphic novel, 2002)

In 2018, Vertigo launched The Sandman Universe sub-imprint with an eponymous one-shot consisting of several segments produced by various creators from a story by Gaiman: The Comic Relief Comic (as editor — with Richard Curtis and Peter Hogan — and contributor among other writers and artists, one-shot, 1991) [1]

Success!

Looking for the Girl, also from Smoke and Mirrors, focuses on a man with a lifelong fixation on a model in a porn magazine. But as he gets older, she somehow stays the same age. The series was preceded by a short serial titled "Run Ragged" (written by Toby Litt, drawn by Victor Santos), published in Ghosts + Time Warp + The Witching Hour anthology one-shots (2012–2013) HOUSE OF WHISPERS VOL. 3: WATCHING THE WATCHERS". dccomics.com. Archived from the original on 25 November 2020.

The novel was later published in the form of a comic book as The Sandman: The Dream Hunters #1–4 (adapted and drawn by P. Craig Russell, 2008–2009) Eaters and Feeders” is about a police officer who finds himself in an extremely unhealthy and potentially deadly relationship with an older woman. Neverwhere (The Author's Preferred Text) (based on the novel as opposed to the original television series — read by Gaiman, released by HarperAudio in 2007, ISBN 0-0613-7387-7)

Note: Neil Gaiman’s Likely Stories airs on Sky Arts in the UK; “Foreign Parts” and “Feeders and Eaters” premiered on May 26th, while “Closing Time” and “Looking for the Girl” air on June 2nd. Dominguez, Noah (30 May 2020). "DC Cancels Lucifer, Will Release Final Issues as Collected Edition". Comic Book Resources. Archived from the original on 30 May 2020. The Sandman Presents: Petrefax #1–4 (with Gaiman credited as "consultant"; written by Mike Carey, drawn by Steve Leialoha, 2000) You can stream them all in a row and imagine they’re more conjoined, like it’s an anthology film akin to the Creepshow features consisting of adaptations of Stephen King short stories. Likely Stories is a compilation of short films based on Neil Gaiman works otherwise unrelated. They range in origin from a 1985 Penthouse contribution to a 2002 piece published in McSweeney’s, with another found in a multi-author collection and another first existing in a comic book. Each short could be classified as horror, or at least as strange, one of them being a sort of light ghost story rather than something scary. If you’re a Gaiman fan, you might know the titles: “Foreign Parts,”“Feeders and Eaters,”“Closing Time,” and “Looking for the Girl.”
