Here’s a random re-posting of super-awesomeness we found on the Interwebs, enjoy! Check out the Author Neil Gaiman as he appeared on an episode of The Simpsons, ha! Then, poor Comic Sans gets NO respect. Plus, here’s an Motivational Poster we all need on our wall.

At this website we shouldn’t have to explain who the Author Neil Gaiman is. He has a bestselling book out right now called, “THE OCEAN AT THE END OF THE LANE“. Before that he teamed-up with Designer Chip Kidd to create a book titled on his famous Commencement Speech called, “MAKE GOOD ART“. He just released news about coming back to DC Comics to write his famous SANDMAN character for their vertigo line… whew!

Well, now Neil Gaiman has plans to release his very first Video Game later this year titled, WAYWARD MANOR. You can visit their official website for the game by clicking HERE. But wait, hold on a second! Neil explains this game a lot better than we can so please give this video a quick view before you go. It sounds like a great project!!

This weekend, at the 2013 San Diego Comic Con (SDCC), Neil Gaiman made some HUGE announcements about coming back to his “Sandman” character for DC Comics’ Vertigo line. He will write the books and the interior art will be done by J. H. Williams III. The cover art (example up above ) is by Dave McKean and he will do a few other covers as well. This is great news, especially considering that the original comic books came out 25 years ago (circa 1988) and now we get to revisit that world and those amazing characters. The six-issue series starts this October and will be released bi-monthly. Yeah, we’re drooling already and can’t wait!! For more info just check out the video down below:

While Chip Kidd was having fun partying at this week’s 2013 San Diego Comic Con (OK honestly, he was probably working like a dog) he was kind enough to share a few fun photos he took while running around.

The first one is of him standing in front of the Booth for Pantheon Books. Hey, take a notice of the banner in the background with the new “Pantheon Graphic Novels” logo!

Next, Chip ran into some super-awesome famous people. The 1st pic is none other than Neil Gaiman (The Ocean at the End of the Lane, Make Good Art Speech, & soon, Sandman Overture for DC Comics) and then we get to see the Fantasy Author, George R. R. Martin (The Game of Thrones). That’s cool!

Then, last but not least, he dropped by the HOT TOYS Toy Booth to see the brand-new Classic 1966 BATMAN TV Series Figures and Batmobile. These are coming out later this year and they are insanely beautiful…. actually, Masterpieces of ART!

Neil Gaiman seems to be having an amazing year so far. He just recently teamed-up with Chip Kidd to produce a book based on a speech he gave and it instantly became a major hit! It’s titled, “Neil Gaiman’s MAKE GOOD ART Speech” book (William Morrow). This book is available now and it makes a wonderful Graduation Gift. It’s based on a famous YouTube Video that went crazy-viral and it’s extremely inspiring.

Then, Neil Gaiman has another new book, a Novel actually, called “The Ocean at the End of the Lane” (Also, by William Morrow). The reviews on this new novel have been totally amazing so far (whew!) and we’re looking forward to reading it soon. Yeah, sorry Neil, I’ve been extremely busy lately but I swear I want to read this really really bad, ha!

Now the reason for this post. Over at the CURIOUS BOOK SHOP Website they recently posted TWO Neil Gaiman Book Reviews at the same time. They are for the 2 books mentioned up above. They are short but very concise and also very well-written. They give you a really great idea what these two books are all about. So, if you would like to read those then please CLICK HERE!

The CURIOUS BOOK SHOP is a used and rare book store located in downtown East Lansing, Michigan. Originally started in a basement in 1969, the store has since expanded to three floors with over 50,000 well-organized books, magazines, and other paper items.

Here’s a quick post to share some special book publishing news.

THE DAILY BEAST recently caught-up with Neil Gaiman who has been insanely busy promoting his new book, “The Ocean at the End of the Lane”, and talked with him about his future projects. Neil Gaiman spoke about the upcoming prequel to the hugely popular SANDMAN comic book series (Vertigo/DC Comics). The author also expanded on a potential GOOD OMENS movie (with Terry Gilliam?), his wife Amanda Palmer, the fun of writing episodes for the DR. WHO British Sci-Fi TV Series and his new book, “The Ocean at the End of the Lane.” Here they are, check ‘em out! And, as always, please remember to share this site with all your friends on Facebook, Twitter, or any other Social Media, Thanks! Now, enjoy.

Here’s some wonderful news to share. Jennifer Doody, a Correspondent at the Harvard Gazette, recently wrote a very excellent article all about when Neil Gaiman and Chip Kidd gave a lecture series at Harvard where they discussed their latest collaboration, the creation of the MAKE GOOD ART Speech Book.

While on stage they discussed other projects as well. Neil Gaiman spoke about his new novel, "The Ocean at the End of the Lane," his scripts for the BBC's "Doctor Who," and a six-part miniseries of his "Sandman" comic. Chip Kidd touched briefly on his next new book he working on titled, “GO: A Kidd’s Guide To Graphic Design”. Due in October 2013 and to be published by Workman Publishing.

Overall the event went really well and a good time was had by all. We want to thank Jennifer for her wonderful article and we also wish to ask our readers to please check it out by clicking HERE!
