Neil Gaiman’s Illustrated Apocalypse
Many of you may have guessed through previous posts that Neil Gaiman is one of my favorite authors out there at this time. So it was fun to see one of his poems (about the Apocalypse...or multiple Apocalypses...or is that Apocalypsese? Apocalypticals?) illustrated by artist Jouri Koponen.
If it's hard to read on this blog, check out the link. Still might have to squint.Also check out his illustrated short story, Babycakes.
Warning: Subject matter of Babycakes might be a little disturbing for those with children. Fortunately, the more graphic parts are left up to your imagination. You have been...well, see the first word of this section.
I see that smile.

thanks for the links...amazing stuff! loved babycakes. and great illustrations too.
Yea, those are fun to check out. It's always interesting to hear an author read their own work, since you get all the emphasis, emotion and inflections they had in their head when writing the piece. Can bring a whole new perspective to a story.
hi liked much of your site and wanted to say that I read a book by Neil Gaiman which is Coraline has been translated into my language that is the Portuguese! visit my blog.
Glad you liked it, Danillo. Thanks for visiting. I wonder if anything is different in the story with the translation. It'd be interesting to compare.
