Death's Head

I did glitch through a couple of fences - particularly the artist lady's fence. Nothing game-breaking though.

Yeah, there's definitely a bit of Zenith to it and, as I mentioned upthread, a touch of Marvelman as well.

Was out and about today and spotted this bastard...

I found it a strangely moving finale. Life goes on etc. One thing I thought they'd address was the whole heavenly system - are people still getting sent to hell or heaven depending on some arbitrary rules? Or has the Saint initiated a new system? Who's running hell now, given we saw what a massive bureaucracy it was? Cassidy's coat in that last scene was fucking gorgeous.

I would have been all over this when I was twelve, to be fair!

It can be tough going for seven year olds

It's interesting reading these comments about Case's character. I know when I went back to re-read it a few years back the part near the beginning where he admits to murdering a young woman pretty much rendered him utterly unlikeable for the rest of the book, even as I enjoyed everything else going on around him. It's still one of my favourite books but that really hung over the rest of the story for me.

"Katia, where are you going?" "To my grave!"

Bless you, it's truly amazing.

Worked for me!

Yeah, I veered between this and loving it - when it's good, it's magic. Mr Nancy's monologues are great and Mad Sweeney's bits were highlights. But where is it all going? Neverwhere remains, for me, the best televised Gaiman.

It was slow to start but it's picked up and the last few weeks have been great. Poor Herr Starr!
