So, when neil posted the link to listen to Mr. Punch on bbc, I did, but i really didnt understand what was going on half the story.
I just read the book and wow, its seriously such a strong story and daves artwork is just insane. I was wondering though, whose acctually seen a punch and judy show? I never have, they dont have things like that where I grew up. I felt very sheltered cuz I have never heard of a punch and judy show until i heard of neil gaimans book. I'd also like to ask if anybody else had the same stomach turning appreciation for it? It engulphed me. I don't think a comic has really ever made me tense like that before. SOme sandman issues made me squirm a bit, but never like this, the tension was so thick as i read, i thought i was losing my mind. |

I too think this is one of, if not the most, intense works Mr. Gaiman has written. And while I love the artwork and think it adds greatly to the presentation of the story, I know NG could've written it and as powerfully without the art. It's a painful, amazing story. Glad to find a fellow fan of it! grace ********-------******** "this whole blonde doctor situation has me mortified" --- and I don't normally advocate music I love, but go see www.myspace.com/umbrellatree and thank me later! |

Has anyone got the BBC broadcast as an MP3 file? Or can I download it somewhere? I'd love to hear this - Mr Punch is perhaps my favourite Gaiman/McKean cooperation.

Do you read Neil's blog thirith? He linked it at two different times where it was available for a week on the BBC radio site. No official downloadable version yet though

*hangs his skull in shame* I used to read his blog, but I stopped because I was trying to save time...
Did you listen to it, GMZoe? |

Never had the time! The idea of sitting by my computer for an hour just listening wasn't very palatable to me :P I wouldn't disparage too much the idea of it never coming out. After all, the Signal To Noise radio drama was released on CD.

Oh, I am sure it'll come out on CD sooner or later. I just would have liked to listen to it before I go out and buy it, as I did with the two last Hitchhiker's Guide series.
