Neil Gaiman reveals if he wrote an original story for the Sandman Netflix series

Having remained a beloved group of comics for decades, hypnotic It has finally found its way into live action, with the series debuting on Netflix earlier this month. The show, which consisted (so far) of the first season of ten episodes and one additional episode, has adapted the original Vertigo Comics series in great detail, while still leaving plenty of storylines to explore in potential future seasons. while talking to ComicBook.com About the recently released additional episode, series creator Neil Gaiman addressed whether he would consider writing new content for hypnoticTV version – He revealed that he would much prefer to adapt the wide range of story that is still left in the main comics, as well as in the various branches and mini-series.

“Yeah, but I’m also incredibly aware that we have a lot of horrible stuff on us,” Gaiman revealed in our interview, which you can check out above. “We just covered the first season, basically, the first 400 or 450 pages. Now we’ve dropped 11 pages [episodes] From Sandman And we have 2,600 pages to go. So I’m not looking at this “wouldn’t it be fun to add something else?” I tend to look at this and go, “We have a long way to travel, with a lot of places to stop on the way.” How can we get as many as 75 versions of SandmanFrom dream huntersFrom endless nightsthen who Sandman: Introduction? Everything we did, we did it knowing that, in many ways, the odds are against our ability to finish the story, but also knowing that if we don’t plan to get to the end of the story we’ll have things missing when we need to get there. Which is a very familiar feeling to me, because when I was writing Sandman, I never knew I’d be able to get to the end of the story, if DC was going to cancel it, if something were to happen. So it looks kind of familiar.”
