SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

The RPGPundit's Own Forum Rules
This part of the site is controlled by the RPGPundit. This is where he discusses topics that he finds interesting. You may post here, but understand that there are limits. The RPGPundit can shut down any thread, topic of discussion, or user in a thread at his pleasure. This part of the site is essentially his house, so keep that in mind. Note that this is the only part of the site where political discussion is permitted, but is regulated by the RPGPundit.

Quote from: QuireI remember thinking at the time that I would have loved to have seen that as a comic.

I'll be honest with you, the comic wasn't that great.  Glenn Fabry's style (which I love normally) wasn't a good match (IMHO) and I disagreed with some of the art direction

I bought the first issue of the Neverwhere comic.  I couldn't run fast enough to the comic shop to cancel that order!  

The art thing I was willing to overlook, it wasn't to my taste but then I was willing to accept that that was probably due to my own preconceived ideas as to how the characters should look.

But I despise abridged stories, and it was like each page was a scene header from the book/tv series.    Terrible waste of potential.

Only in an alternate dimension where there are sequels to Highlander and the like.

Shit, that's a shame. Gaiman and Fabry working together sounds like a blast. Pity it didn't work.

Gaiman had very little to do with it.  When I spoke to him about it at a signing he described it as having "a very different vision, but that's fine" in a similar voice to the one he used when talking about the Todd McFarlane lawsuit
