Gahan Wilson adapts Gaiman's DARK AND SILLY NIGHT

Wednesday, April 15, 2009

Gahan Wilson, the cartoonist whose macabre, hilarious work has filled the pages of The New Yorker, The National Lampoon, Playboy and many other publications, has designed Steven-Charles Jaffe's new, animated adaptation of Neil Gaiman's story It Was a Dark and Silly Night. While the story itself didn't do much for us, the short has a lot charm and the animation is astonishingly faithful to Wilson's style. If you always thought Wilson's drawings of jowly, goggle-eyed kids kids were freaky sitting still on the page, wait until you see them in motion!

"Science fiction plucks from within us our deepest fears and hopes, then shows them to us in rough disguise: the monster and the rocket." - W.H. Auden

Who is he, this one who is called "Greg Stacy"?

Greg Stacy began the MONSTERS AND ROCKETS blog in April of 2009. Prior to that, he was editor of the popular sci-fi/horror news website DARKWOLDS.COM. He has also written for LA WEEKLY, OC WEEKLY, UTNE READER and LOS ANGELES CITYBEAT. He always feels weird writing about himself in the third person.
