NANCY BOYS

not manga related, but...
I GOT TO MEET NEIL GAIMAN YESTERDAY!

He came to visit Google yesterday, and did a 1-hour talk and reading from his new book "Anansi Boys," followed by a book signing! I got to:
  • Ask a question about that moronic Village Voice article trashing comics and comic adaptations, and his feelings on the whole thing

  • Hand Neil a black (duh) Google Print t-shirt

  • Thank him in person for making my teenage years less painful and get a picture together!
What a cool way to end the week!

UPDATE: Neil put up a post with a short mention of his visit to Google here

No way. That is awesome.

You all better have treated him with the Godlike awe he deserves!
