Neil Gaiman: Hi, I’m Neil Gaiman. I’m wearing the first red T-shirt I’ve worn since 1987. Because I’m a member of the WGA. I’m on strike. I care so much for the things that I’ve written but I’m out here right now not working and here until we get a good contract because I care about the future of the WGA, the future of young writers. I want a world in which no AI writes scripts or attempts to. I want a world in which young writers get to learn how to make television. And I want a world in which we are fairly compensated for the things that we put up on streaming.
This is fascinating and what I’m about to say is not a criticism it’s just me being a massive nerd but I can’t help looking at this and seeing Confounding Factors. I am too lazy to do this but I think it’d be super interesting to have a chart that looks at comics-tagged fics only up until the Netflix show premiere, because I imagine that would be an extremely different chart.
I limited to the Sandman (Comics) fandom tag, date updated from 1989 to August 4, 2022 (the day before the Netflix show dropped), and excluded crossovers (which were by far the majority of what was in that date range). That left 333 works, and the top relationships according to the filter sidebar are
Death of the Endless & Dream of the Endless (9)
Dream of the Endless | Morpheus/Lucifer Morningstar (8)
Desire of the Endless/Dream of the Endless (6)
Dream of the Endless/Hob Gadling (6)
Dream of the Endless/Thessaly (5)
Death of the Endless/Dream of the Endless (4)
Dream of the Endless | Morpheus/Reader (4)
Dream of the Endless | Morpheus/Nada (3)
Dream of the Endless/Nuala (3)
