We shall find out tomorrow and I guess I can add that the names listed below were heavily involved in the decision-making process. What do you think?

October 15, 2021 Ken Pierce Leave a comment

Hey there my friends, I am taking a pause in the day by day postings from the New York Comic Con to do another side posting from one of the items that attendees were able to enjoy. I felt this breaks it all up nicely but if you are just joining us you are going to want to click HERE first to see the other posts that have come before it. So this is the “Sandman” Audible experience and that’s an audio book for those who are unaware. This experience takes you to several places in the story and each had a brief summary of what it was and a means to do a photo op. If you connected to their link and snapped a photo one of the characters would appear in the image with you. I just took simple snaps so let’s go into The Dreaming.

It was only back in January that we shared the trailer for the second season of “American Gods” which airs on the Starz Network and if you missed that trailer please just click HERE to be up to date with the rest of us. This season begins tonight on the Starz network which is a premium channel from your cable provider and it will be episodic as opposed to something that you can sit and binge. Let’s take another look at the premise and casting along with the poster for the season.

The Premise: When Shadow Moon is released from prison, he enters a world he does not understand and meets the mysterious Mr. Wednesday. Left adrift by the recent death of his wife, Shadow is hired as Mr. Wednesday’s assistant/bodyguard. He finds himself in a hidden world where magic is real, where the Old Gods fear irrelevance and the growing power of the New Gods, including Technology and Media. In a grand plan to combat the threat, Mr. Wednesday attempts to unite the Old Gods to defend their existence and rebuild the influence that they have lost, leaving Shadow struggling to accept this new world and his place in it.
