The Gaiman Experience... Again. PT2

11.26.2007 - Finally after a long wait the journey to meet and greet the man in black has come full circle. Though I did not have any book to sign the photos will do just fine.



As generous as anyone in the world Neil Gaiman was really the real Sandman. Seeing and hearing The Wall Of Fans scream on top of there lungs after his introductions is something that bring us back to 2005.



This time around there are no longer lines that took you close to four hours to wait, but the access to see the man was quite a satisfaction. Armed now with a better digital camera is an added spectacle to capturing the moment with the man who brought to you Stardust and executive producer of the much talked about Beowulf.



The excitement never stopped as they announced the winners, and Neil Gaiman speaking on stage like he's your next door neighbor.

He said that he is still addicted to Kalamansi Juice and I hear also about a Choknut cravings as of this moment one for the history books. The event was star studded with comic books artists led by Leinil Francis Yu (Wolverine, New Avengers), Arnold Arre (Andong Agimat), and Lyndon Gregorio (Beerkada) to name a few. This includes The Bloggers Azrael, Ronald Guanzon, and yours truly who covered the event.



The event on stage had performance by a group performing tribal songs. The lights are bright but the rain was quite a downpour on everyone who are not inside the big tent. We thought giving Gerry Alanguilan's third issue comics --Elmer was a futile attempt to get to see him after he walked off the stage as he bid good bye.



But there was a dinner for the winners and finalist who joinjed last year and this year's graphic Fiction Award. Though before we moved to that scene he did said that he will be back for next year's award giving event by Fully Booked.

So after he went off to prepare himself to dinner. The guys and I stayed at Starbucks until it was time for the crew to get up there and meet him.

Like the one happened almost three years ago, this one is more sweeter getting to talk to him like your regular buddy. Finally getting a decent photo with him is enough to say --Mission Accomplished!

Until the bigger event for next year of course!

The Gaiman Experience... Again. PT1

11.25.2007 - Its been almost three years since we haven't seen the likes of Neil Gaiman. One of the greatest literary artists of modern times. In 2005 the experience was like it was yesterday. Indeed it happened again today in the year 2007 as he came to judge the winners for The 2nd Graphic Fiction Awards.



Honestly I never thought that he wont keep, that promised as I asked that question on his blog about his return. The thought of it was definitely true. He came back and it was a full circle. Not only he came by himself he brought along his son Mike, who works for Google.com the friendly chap.



So I arrived like fifteen minutes after three going up the fourth level of the newly built Fully Booked branch at The Bonifacio High Street. Azrael was there fixing his network wi-fi if he could video blog the who event, but unfortunately the internet access was to weak for
the signal broadcast.




While he tries to get the laptop set-up for the event I chekced the area, where some of the Gaiman Fans waited near the area, where he is conducting his one-on-one interview with the lcoal media. Tim Yap was there too talking to fans and conducting interviews for his TV show.



Indeed things has changed a lot since he first came. The security now is much stricter, and you have to know someone from the inside to get closer to the man in black.



Azrael had a missed opportunity to get close to Mr. Gaiman, because we thought he will be having a second panel of discussion. But it turns out all the events are going to happen on stage at the courtyard fronting the store.

Things are going crazy from down below as Eric Mana the man known as the Philippines' David Blane conducted a magic show.

Its there where the event happened and that's where Mr. Neil Gaiman was introduced on stage...
