The success of Game of Thrones and the Marvel Cinematic Universe have thrown open the floodgates for adaptations of beloved geek properties. Netflix has bet big on a few, including the insanely popular Japanese comic One Piece , which they hope could be the next big thing considering the high profile of the property basically everywhere but North America. Netflix also laid out a huge sum of money to adapt the thing that 90s teens who shopped at Hot Topic didn’t shut up about until Invader Zim came along, Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman . This project is so massive that Warmer Brothers, who own the rights to it because it’s a DC comic book passed on it and let Netflix have it because they didn’t want to spend the absolute fortune the show will cost to produce. Netflix announced the cast of the show on Wednesday and it looks like they’re already not sparing any expense there, either. The most notable cast member is Stephen Fry as Gilbert, a character from the comic’s second story arc, and Charles Dance as Roderick Burgess, an occultist who imprisons the series’ protagonist Morpheus in the early 20th century. That’s not a spoiler, it will likely be the first scene in the show. A second Game of Thrones alum, Gwendolyn Christie, will play Lucifer, the same character portrayed by Tom Ellis in Lucifer . Jenna Coleman from Dr. Who will make an appearance as Johanna Constantine, an ancestor of Legends of Tomorrow’s John Constantine. This is the best chance we have of hearing Constantine pronounced correctly because Neil Gaiman himself wrote the correct pronunciation into an issue of The Sandman . Patton Oswalt will also appear as Matthew the Raven, Morpheus’s assistant and friend. I know what you’re thinking “how did they get Patton Oswalt in a comic book adaptation?” If you’ve come this far and you’re not a comic book nerd, I salute you. But you probably want to know what The Sandman is, why your formerly- goth coworkers won’t shut up about it, and if you should watch it. In the mid-to-late 1980s, DC comics just let avant-garde writers from the UK go nuts on comics featuring lesser-known DC characters. This included Alan Moore’s Swamp Thing and Watchmen , Grant Morrison’s Animal Man and Doom Patro l and Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman . While Morrison and Moore gave their takes on DC’s lesser-known heroes, Gaiman mostly built his cast out of characters from DC’s horror anthology comics. You’ve probably heard of Tales from the Crypt , the horror series hosted by the Cryptkeeper; that started out as a comic by Mad Magazine’s publisher EC Comics. DC had a number of comics in the same vein, such as Weird Mystery Tales, House of Secrets, House of Mysteries and Tales of Ghost Castle . All of these books had hosts like Destiny, Cain, Abel and Eve or Lucien the Librarian. Neil Gaiman took those characters and made them central to his story as denizens of The Dreaming, the realm of Dream, the titular Sandman. Dream, or Morpheus, or The Sandman, is a new character that is essentially an update to an old DC superhero called The Sandman, aka Hector Hall, who was the son of Hawkman and Hawkgirl. He has no real relation to that character, though the Hall family features prominently in various storylines. The Sandman itself is a lot like one of those horror anthology comics; there are a lot of stories where Morpheus is simply a secondary character while the main focus is on a story about human characters. The TV show sounds like it will be adapting the first of these, A Doll’s House , as part of its ten-episode first season. Morpheus is involved in the events, but the main character is Rose Walker, a girl whose grandmother was affected by the sleeping sickness caused by Morpheus’s imprisonment at the start of the series. Unlike Tales from the Crypt and modern horror anthologies like American Horror Story , The Sandman manages to connect its characters to each other and to the larger DC Universe in interesting and rewarding ways. Honestly, though, if you’re interested in The Sandman, which is great, just go out and buy the comics. Neil Gaiman gets all the credit for the book, and he deserves most of it, but he worked with a lot of really talented artists who all brought a good deal of nuance to the story through their art that will be impossible to replicate. And you saw what happened to Game of Thrones . The Sandman : Kirby Howell-Baptiste, Patton Oswalt Among Dozen Cast in Neil Gaiman's Netflix Adaptation. Death has landed on The Sandman ‘s doorstep. Neil Gaiman’s Netflix adaptation has announced the addition of 12 new cast members, including Kirby Howell-Baptiste ( The Good Place, Why Women Kill ) as the aforementioned Death, the wiser sister of Tom Sturridge’s Dream. She’ll be joined by Patton Oswalt ( The King of Queens, A.P. Bio ), who is set to lend his voice to Matthew the Raven, Dream’s most trusted emissary. The dozen castings — which Gaiman revealed in a blog post Wednesday — also include Doctor Who fave Jenna Coleman, Fargo and Harry Potter vet David Thewlis, Nip/Tuck ‘s Joely Richardson, and British comedian Stephen Fry. Read on for character details: * Coleman will play Johanna Constantine, haunted exorcist and occult adventuress for hire. * Richardson ( Nip/Tuck ) will play Ethel Cripps, a master thief and woman of a thousand identities. * Niamh Walsh ( Good Omens ) will play Young Ethel Cripps, a betrayed and determined young woman seeking to survive. * Thewlis ( Fargo ) will play John Dee, Ethel’s son, a dangerous, insane man on a quest for truth. * Kyo Ra will play Rose Walker, a young woman on a desperate search for her missing brother. She discovers a connection to Dream that neither of them can escape. * Fry will play Gilbert, debonair protector of Rose Walker. * Razane Jammal ( Paranormal ) will play Lyta Hall, Rose’s best friend and travel companion. * Sandra James-Young ( EastEnders ) will play Unity Kincaid, heiress and mysterious benefactor. * Mason Alexander Park ( iCarly ) will play Desire, Dream’s sibling and desire personified. * Donna Preston ( The Hitman’s Bodyguard ) will play Despair, Dream’s sister and the twin of Desire. The Sandman is based on the DC Comics series of the same name, which is described as “a rich blend of modern myth and dark fantasy in which contemporary fiction, historical drama and legend are seamlessly interwoven.” The TV adaptation, which is currently in production, will follow “the people and places affected by Morpheus, the Dream King, as he mends the cosmic (and human) mistakes he’s made during his vast existence.” As previously reported, the ensemble also features Game of Thrones alumni Gwendolyn Christie and Charles Dance, who will respectively embody Lucifer and Roderick Burgess. What do you think of The Sandman ‘s cast so far? Drop your thoughts in a comment below. Cool Stuff | Essays. Neil Gaiman's The Sandman was launched in 1989. This extremely popular series was bound into ten collections. Following Dream of the Endless, also known as Morpheus, Onieros and many other names, we explore a magical world filled with stories both horrific and beautiful. What do you need to know to enjoy the series? Only that there are seven brothers and sisters who have been since the beginning of time, the Endless. They are Destiny, Death, Dream, Desire, Despair, Delirium who was once Delight, and Destruction who turned his back on his duties. Their names describe their function and the realms that they are in charge of. Several years ago, a coven of wizards attempted to end death by taking Death captive, but captured Dream instead. When he finally escapes he must face the changes that have gone on in his realm, and the changes in himself. Preludes and Nocturnes begins the series. In it, Dream, escapes his prison. He must go on a quest to find the tools of his office: his helm, pouch and ruby. The journey will take him - and us - through the gates of hell itself. It will also teach Dream an important lesson about relying on tools, and introduce us to the other star of the series, Death. The Doll's House shows us that the Dream King has not yet resolved all of the problems caused by his imprisonment. Three dreams have escaped The Dreaming, the villainous pair Brute and Glob, and the kindlier Fiddler's Green. This story is intertwined with another about a young woman named Rose Walker and her search for her little brother.

    WATCHING TELEVISION WITH FRIENDS: TWEEN GIRLS’ INCLUSION OF TELEVISUAL MATERIAL IN FRIENDSHIP by CYNTHIA MICHIELLE MAURER A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-Camden Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Childhood Studies written under the direction of Daniel Thomas Cook and approved by ______________________________ Daniel T. Cook ______________________________ Anna Beresin ______________________________ Todd Wolfson Camden, New Jersey May 2016 ABSTRACT Watching Television with Friends: Tween Girls’ Inclusion of Televisual Material in Friendship By CYNTHIA MICHIELLE MAURER Dissertation Director: Daniel Thomas Cook This qualitative work examines the role of tween live-action television shows in the friendships of four tween girls, providing insight into the use of televisual material in peer interactions. Over the course of one year and with the use of a video camera, I recorded, observed, hung out and watched television with the girls in the informal setting of a friend’s house. I found that friendship informs and filters understandings and use of tween television in daily conversations with friends. Using Erving Goffman’s theory of facework as a starting point, I introduce a new theoretical framework called friendship work to locate, examine, and understand how friendship is enacted on a granular level. Friendship work considers how an individual positions herself for her own needs before acknowledging the needs of her friends, and is concerned with both emotive effort and social impact. Through group television viewings, participation in television themed games, and the creation of webisodes, the girls strengthen, maintain, and diminish previously established bonds.

  • Sandman, Aesthetics and Canonisation Today I Want To
    Sandman, Aesthetics and Canonisation Today I want to examine the ways in which Neil Gaiman’s Sandman has used narrative, format and aesthetic to move ever closer to the notion of the literary text. Particularly going to consider how it exploits the author function and enacts the struggle for cultural worth that comics seem consistently engaged in. Sandman is an epic series rewriting a golden-age superhero into an immortal deity. It is best remembered for its mythological content and literary references, and these elements have allowed it to claim its place as a canonised graphic novel (despite not actually being a singular GN but a maxi-series across multiple trade paperbacks!). Neil Gaiman’s authorship and authority dominate the text and epitomise Michel Foucault’s author function. But Sandman also draws heavily on mixed media and artistic variation and these aspects are less often discussed. Far from supporting a singular author function, Sandman’s visual style is multiple and varied. But despite this, in paratexts the artistic contributions are frequently subsumed into Gaiman’s authorship. However, a closer reading demonstrates that in fact this artistic variety destabilises clear-cut authorship and enacts the particular status struggles of comics as a collaborative medium struggling against the graphic novel branding. SLIDE: literary pix Sandman was launched in 1989 and became the flagship title for DC’s new Vertigo imprint. Vertigo’s publications contributed heavily to the mainstream cultural revaluation of comics as graphic novels, and critics such as Candace West have argued that Sandman in particular was instrumental here due to the attention the series received from mainstream media such as Rolling Stone magazine.
