Announcement of New Sandman 'Story' Turns All the World's Weapons to Candy Necklaces

Today was the first day of the San Diego Comic Con, and taking a page from the Higgs-Boson particle, Vertigo comics has started with a bang (heh..). Neil Gaiman himself released a video, from the comfort of his wizardly home library, that he will be working with J.H. Williams III, current artist for Batwoman and guy who makes my heart fluffy with his pictures, to tell a new tale concerning the Dream Lord Morpheus, protagonist of Gaiman's ground-breaking Sandman series. The story will follow Morpheus during the time just before his capture at the beginning of the original series, and explain things like why he was dressed in that Old Gods-looking getup he wore in his first appearance (above). Promotional art for the series has been released and is waiting for your eyeballs just below.
