Review: "Shadow Show" by Neil Gaiman et al.

Thumbs up for Shadow Show: All-New Stories in Celebration of Ray Bradbury by Neil Gaiman et al. Fantasy/graphic novel.

"I worry I was keeping [the stories] alive. I think it's God’s fault. God can't be expected to remember everything. Perhaps he delegates things, just goes, 'You! I want you to remember the dates of The Hundred Years' War. And you, you remember Jack Benny...'"
