That’s very cool. It’s the same people that worked with Obsidian on the voice tech for Outer Worlds.
I love that they did that, that they gave him his voice back.

Oooh, dis gonna be gud!!!
Ah snap, right in the feels!
That is flipping awesome though!
As someone who used to own most of the original Gaiman Sandman comics, I will certainly be watching this. His delve into dream/lore/mythology both modern and ancient is a feat of extraordinary creativity.
I also have to admit, when I was younger I had a SERIOUS crush on the comic character of death. Luckily I did not style my preferences for real world companionship on her though. The whole premise of Death in Gaiman’s universe is so very deep and sad and hopeful, all at the same time.

Ok so anyone who wants to try the Time travelers Wife, DON’T! Just don’t
Oh dear. It’s on my holiday break binge list. Thought it looked okay in the trailer, and it was reviewing okay on IMDB at that point. What’s wrong with it?
I read the book, the actor is decent, the lead actress is REALLY irritating. I just find her very condesending. I made it thru 3 episodes and gave up. The movie was better.
