The comic of the book of the TV series penned by a comic writer

Does anyone else find it bizarre that Mike Carey is adapting for comics Neil Gaiman's novelisation of his own Neverwhere TV series?

It looks even more preposterous than the tv series, judging by the previews - it's as if someone decided that the tv version did not sufficiently resemble an irritating parody of Gaiman's most idiosyncratic ticks.

"Yeah, you know what would improve the character Door? a tattoo of a keyhold over one eye, and a carnival outfit!"

I find it profoundly depressing that there is a market or percieved market for this, and that I have to put up with adverts for it in all the better books Vertigo is publishing.

Oh dear dear dear.
"Door told me the fourth day was the worst. She'd accrued two huge swollen black eyes from running for 72 straight hours without a bra."

Outstanding.

Why would they choose Glen Fabry to do art for a Neil Gaiman adaptaion?

I loved Neverhere (the novel) but this is looking pretty crap.
