T here are quite a few things I did like about this one. Still it was interesting and fun to see different adaptations of all the famous characters and how they are all mixed together. As I mentioned above I knew nothing about this story, mainly because this one does have some age on it. This one was a very interesting ride to say the least. From there there is a race against time to save the planet and along with it the multiverse. The Wacher tells him that there is someone out of time that is messing with the time stream and threatens to destroy everything, not just that reality but everything. Later he uses his powers to finally get some answers as to why the world is ending, answer that only Wautu the Watcher can give him. The story deals with Dr Strange and his gifts see that the world is coming to an end. Doom, the Fantastic Four, Nicholas Furry, Peter Parker, Matt Murdoch, Black Widow, Magneto, and his two children in the Marvel Universe. It includes most of the famous superheroes including Dr. This story takes place in 1602 as the title states. He is beyond talented and if you run in the comics world you would have surely heard of him and should have read at least one of his stories. He is also credited with creating the now Marvel character Angela, which I did not know. He has basically written pretty much everything, comics, novels, television, and movie scripts. With that being said the more I think about it I really liked The Ocean at the End of the Lane and I know my review of it at the time was not great, the story has grown on me. I will also say that I am fairly certain that I am in the minority on this matter. Gaiman and I have an odd relationship, I admire his creativity and his success, but at times I feel some of his stories wonder aimlessly and don’t have much of a plot. He has also written quite a few books including The Ocean at the End of the Lane, which I read and you can read the review here. Sandman is the most famous work by Gaiman, not to mention one, if not the, most famous comic of all time.

Like Martin Scorsese I know he is a very famous director, but I would be hard-pressed to name a lot of his movies other than Departed, which was awesome. The best way I can explain it is if yo u know who he is you know how famous he is but if you don’t know him I doubt you would realize what he has written. He is arguable one of the most famous writers out there right now, but I also think he is kind of an underground writer. I thought it would be beyond cool to see my favorite heroes set back in the 1600’s, plus Neil Gaiman was the writer on this one so I felt this was a no brainer.Įveryone knows who Neil Gaiman is and if you don’t then I am not really sure what to tell you. As you know I like stories where writers take well established characters and put a new spin on them, so this was right up my alley.

I had never heard of it before but I thought it sounded cool.
