Anyone reading the new American Gods comic? I used to collect The Sandman years ago and jumped at this new series written by Neil Gaiman.

I've been very happy with it. P. Craig Russell has done an admirable job of creating a faithful and compelling translation of Gaiman's novel. There are very minor cuts, omissions, or story restructuring here and there, but they are minimal not unexpected considering that comic books are a very different medium from prose. The current arc, "Moment of the Storm", is the third and final arc and parallels with part 3 of the original novel. Scott Hampton's art has been a bit hit and miss, but he brings in a surprising amount of background detail from the novel.
Cheers! Jim
