I recall Jesus was only mentioned in passing as not being the most popular figure in Palestine, maybe?

Also I thought the Shadow Gaiman had envisioned was pre huge Dwayne Johnson

are there any plans to also adapt the short story sequels of "Shadow goes to a nice place and terrible things happen"? Monarch of the Glen, and the one in the nice british village and Bast

i mean, they should also adapt anansi boys too

oh yeah, i thought they would actually do the whole blood eagle viking vigil thing in the beginning - which would be really rad when paired with Shadow's lynching at the end. maybe that would be a little too violent

i think the scene (and all the home scenes, being replaced by an electronic shuffler) is meant to show how empty Laura is and she's like, oh a hot dude wanna gently caress? why not. the rest of the show hits you very unsubtly how she feels like a complete nothing person

also everything between audrey and laura was amazing. Certainly didn't expect how great it was going to be.

i personally don't like the comic being published by Dark Horse right now (lots of tells instead of show, muted watercolours for a series full of gods and monsters), but sometimes it hits the correct notes and I'm wondering how the series will deal with this dream sequence:
