I recall Coraline was made into a stop motion film and it was rather awesome. Ah Neil,contributing to my continual growth as a person in so many ways!

I read the second volume of Sandman last week and let me tell you, it was really good. Whereas the first volume was a series of stories loosely connected by Morpheus's plight, volume 2 told one long story (well, there was one off-topic story, but I really liked that one too). It also tied in with one of the human characters from volume 1 (Unity Kinkaid) and introduced more of the Endless, Desire in particular. That one will make more trouble down the line, mark my words.
Yeah, the cover is super creepy
Instead of moving on to volume 3 right away, I'm taking a break for some Batman! The New 52 run specifically. I just finished the first volume of that a few minutes ago. It's been very interesting so far and Gotham looks to be in trouble for volume 2! I like how mysterious the Court of Owls is, though it remains to be seen if they will remain interesting throughout. (By the way, I've noticed that the library has New 52 Nightwing and Batgirl too. Does anyone know if they tie into this Batman story somehow or are they their own thing?) I think I'll read the next volume of this before going back to Sandman.
On another comics note I found an Aliens comics omnibus (volume 1!) at Goodwill for 50 cents. It sells for $18 on Amazon! So at some point I'll be reading that, though it will be after these library books. So much to read!
