Oh, YES! I just read on living legend Neil Gaiman's blog that Vertigo is re-releasing the Dave McKean designed Tarot Card Set. Dave McKean is a one of the pioneers of digital art and color copy compositing, and is the genius behind every jaw-dropping cover of the hallowed Sandman comics series. He's since gone on to bring his vision to many other projects, including illustrating children's books, creating his own comics, and heading up the design for the Henson/Gaiman film, Mirrormask
. This new edition of the tarot set is being released to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Sandman (can't believe it's been that long...):
"This new anniversary edition features:
Seventy-eight cards with art by Dave McKean, a softcover 128-page book (with a four-color cover by McKean, black and white interior text by tarot expert Rachel Pollack, and an introduction by New York Times best-selling SANDMAN author Neil Gaiman), plus a black velvet-like drawstring bag to hold the tarot cards. The book cover, box front, spines and velvet-quality bag are gold foil-stamped with a special Sandman 20th Anniversary logo."
Can't wait til November 5th!
