English can be so complicated sometimes. There are words that are spelled differently but pronounced the same and vise versa. Like, I want to read that book or I have read that book.
I might be a bit bised giving that I lived in baghdad for all my 19 years old life. But ramadan will always be my favorite, I could talk for days about how much this issue means to me. I could never read the last pages without crying. Neil was bravely political and spoke up in a time when most artists prefered not to. And I will forever love him for that.
This one I really really like. Despair asks Morpheus what he can do in her realm with his "little dreams". If you remember back to one of the first volumes, Morpheus says, exactly, "I am hope." Hope in the realm of despair
thank you for revisiting these stories. i remember them well from when i first read them, but there are a few that i missed. neil gaiman is in charge of a netflix tv series of these books. have you heard? i hope they are as weird and aloof as the books.
if you wan a taste of what it might be like, they recently released a second audio book for the comics. I actually found this vid because of the orpheus story had a pretty good song as futher representation to the song he sings. Can’t quite find if it was a cover of something or whatever.
Love your narration skills. I think watching a few Greek mythology documentaries might help you a bit with the pronunciations of the names. Per-ce-fa-ni Eu-ri-di-si
I like your videos, I listened to the audio books, but then I go back through these so I can see the images. . The way you said "persephone" at 48:45 ... lol
"Hercules was drunk & he didn't gond to underworld" imao, 🤣. Wait, persephone in Greek mythology comes out of underworld for 6 months, Does writer have changed even that fact
You should check out Southern Bastards by Jason Aaron sometime. Really great comic and would make for some great content. Still an ongoing series though, so I don't know if you'd want to tackle that until its done. Love the vids man, keep up the good work!
Oh I'm well aware of Southern Bastards, it's great. I might cover it one day. Although it seems like they are on indefinite hiatus now and who knows if it will finish. I also really liked Scalped by him which has a very similar feel.
Such beautiful writing! Thank you for the amazing narration @dannymalt. I want to buy a Sandman comic to start reading this stuff. Can you kindly take the time out and recommend where i should start? It would be greatly appreciated! Sending the link to this video to at least 10 of my buddies! Love from India.
For Sandman you just start with Volume 1, Preludes and Nocturnes and go from there. Once you finish the 10 volumes there are peripheral books you can read if you want, but most are not written by Gaiman.
@@dannymalt Thanks brother...but i don't plan to buy all of them. I just want own one for keepsake. An issue which has stunning artwork and a great story. Just tell me which one is you personal favourite...I'll go for that.
In terms of single issues, I love Issue 50 Ramadan, and issue 13 Men of Good Fortune (Hob Gadling one). I have yet to do my re-read of the last 3 Sandman volumes, so I’ll reserve picking a favorite trade paperback until then. But so far I think up to now, it’s volume 4, where Lucifer abandons Hell and Morpheus has to decide who to give it too.
Hey Dannymalt, what did you think of Batman The Long Halloween part 1? I think it was a good adaptation of the story so far besides the major difference at the end of the movie. Jensen Ackles killed it as Batman/Bruce Wayne. Hope part 2 doesn't disappoint. Great episode as always.
Wanted to do a review video, but didn’t have the time. I didn’t like how they cut the wedding in the beginning, and how they are tackling the overall flow of the story. It’s not exactly what I wanted. Voice acting is good tho. The big change at the end is interesting. I’m mixed on the change but I wonder how they are going to change the story for part 2. So I’m intrigued.
@@dannymalt I finished it. It's great. Now I'm reading Sandman. I thought comic were for kids, but I was wrong 😁. You are the reason I started reading comic. Thank you for introducing me to the world of comic. Keep up the good work man 🙏🏻
I remember reading about the story of the first and last emperor of United States years ago. I thought very little about the story, other than it being an amusing anecdote, but this interpretation of the event was so moving it brought a tear to my eye.
Eurydice - Your-id-a-see. Check out voiced dialogue from the game Hades. Persephone - Purr-sef-a-knee. Same, but, like, be wary of story spoilers if you're interested in the game and haven't played it with this one.
I haven’t played that yet, but plan on getting it when it comes out on PS5. Although I am failing to beat Returnal, so the thought of playing another Rogue-like that is hard to beat, has me a little worried.
@@dannymalt don't be worried about that with Hades... You're always getting stronger thanks to the darkness you get in each run that you can dump into permanent upgrades (including extra lives) after each death. From what little I've played of Returnal, it's very difficult compared to stuff like Hades and the Binding of Isaac.
Considering how most of these stories have a degree of historical/literary accuracy, I wonder about the story about Adam and Eve. It seems on point though lol.
It was an amazing episode. Most kings r by desire(conquering) & destiny(lineage), v saw here am emperor purely from dream, no lunacy, he dreamt & ppl respected his dreams.
I just assumed my pronunciation was correct by saying the names phonetically the English way, but other languages like to say them differently I suppose. I’m sure if I played that Hades game I would have got them right.
@@dannymalt Maybe, it is a good game. But i used to read alot of greek myths when i was young. I'm just nitpicking. I guess it just helps me stay in the story. But i do really enjoy your channel. So i hope it doesn't come off as rude.
No worries. I know I butcher weird names sometimes, I mostly just get annoyed with myself when I find out after the fact that it’s wrong, and I missed it, and can’t just fix it without having to resort to the drastic step of reuploading the entire video.
So many people already called me out on that name. In my defense I don’t hear that name said out loud regularly at all. If you say it phonetically how it’s spelled it’s how I would say it, but because of Greek history for some reason “phone” is “phon-eee”.
@@callengamble7845 thought about it. I haven’t read it yet, but I always meant to get around to it, especially Garth Ennis’ run because I’m a big fan of his. So maybe one day I’ll cover it.
Adam and his three wives, as I understand it, is not Biblical, but from Jewish studies. (Look, Jews existed long before Christians.) Now, Neil Gaiman is of Jewish background. So as a curious young boy, he loved tricking his favorite Rabbi into telling him these things. 🤭
I am aware I butchered the pronunciation of “Persephone” please stop telling me. In my defense, since when do we pronounce “phone” as “ph-on-eee”.
Greek words can be pretty confusing when reading
I use to say that too. I know your pain.

I know It takes a ton of work to make one of these the way you do. Doesn't make the wait any easier. I painfully wait for your next videos.
very well said
46:56 Plot aside is very wholesome to see a picture of all of the Endless in death´s home
Fun fact - The Emperor of America was actually a real person
That's one reason I like sandman so much it actually intertwines real history with fantasy
And what person he was ^^
Every year, San Francisco still celebrates a day in honor of Emperor Norton. 😉
the emperor of America was quite nice, brought some emotion to me
Sandman is great. Ive been meaning to read it for years now and never made time for it and thanks to you, I'm finally getting to enjoy it.
This is a great TH-cam channel I hope it gets like a million view keep up the good work
Love your channel my dude. Please don't stop doing what you're doing.

There’s so much information in this comic, such a story teller
A beautiful volume! One of my favorites

Orpheus should’ve just shouted and asked if she’s there like damn why do you have to ruin it ugh
I love sandman so much such intricate writing and meanings to the stories, very good work on the video by the way I can tell you put alot of work in!
I was born in 1993, so I'm happy this was my volume
oh God...
@@johnroscoe2406 what im 28 thats not old
"Hercules was drunk & he didn't gond to underworld" imao, 🤣. Wait, persephone in Greek mythology comes out of underworld for 6 months, Does writer have changed even that fact
Your videos are the best part of my Sundays, hey Danny you should check out SAGA, just for fun to yourself and maybe someday bring it to the channel
I love Saga. That’s another one I would like to cover one day.
Awsome work
Three things you can do. Basic but I'm inspired 😮 omg
Besides the first one this one was my favorite
Yeah...... my Sunday will be awesome...... was waiting...... thanks Danny...... love your hard work thanks for sharing
The King of Dreaming should dream of forgiveness. People suffer greatly because of his grudges.
Keep up the great work, I read books, then watch your vids as a recap
Honestly love all of these
Great narration, awesome story telling ,keep up👍🧡
everyone gives Nero flack about burning Rome, but nobody thanks him for his CD and DVD writing program!
He probably didn't even actually do that.
Burning rom
I love your contents - thank you 🙏 💗

Great work Danny!
thanks for these!
Can you do one about Batman Creature of the night or Swamp Thing by Alan Moore
Here's a second vote for swamp thing!
I’ve never read Moore’s Swamp Thing, but I do want to. I think long term one day I’ll try and go through it all on my channel.
48:46 Persephone's name is pronounced more like Persefany.
Yes, and it's You-ri-de-see (Euredice).
Best day of my week ❤️
thanks for this

Thanks Danny!!!
I peed my pants when I heard Persephone hahahahahah
Good music choice for the Ramadan story.
Keep up the awesome work! I'll have to check this one out at work.
Per*sef*oh*nee
cant wait for vol 7
this is awesome!
Have you read GIDEON FALLS by Jeff Lemire and Andrea Sorrentino? What do you think about it?
It’s been a while, but I remember liking it and thinking it was creepy. I’ve only read the first 2 TPBs or so, I need to catch up.

Vuh-silly and per-sef-fony
The timing is off for some of the meetings, but both Emperor Norton and the King of Pain were real people.
Thank you 🙏🏻
I noticed a lot of references in Ramadan to other stories but can't identify them. Were they from Arabian Nights?
I remember reading about the story of the first and last emperor of United States years ago. I thought very little about the story, other than it being an amusing anecdote, but this interpretation of the event was so moving it brought a tear to my eye.
Please do Maus by Art spiegelman next

Bro the pronouncing of.. like everything lmfao. Out of all of them “vass-seal-ee” not “Vesily” LOL...
Considering how most of these stories have a degree of historical/literary accuracy, I wonder about the story about Adam and Eve. It seems on point though lol.
I can't believe they included Emperor Norton
That's not why he won't end his son's suffering

Another comic you should do by Neil Gaiman is American Gods
I read the novel, didn’t know they did it in comic form too. The book was good. I didn’t like the show though.
@@dannymalt yeah the show is bad but there is a comic series for American gods that’s based off of the book which is really good
Check the pronunciation of Greek names
you cannot pronounce names to save your life :)))
And shit 🤣🤣🤣🤣 freaking Mathew
👍
Morpheus was an @$$, and glad what happens to him in the end.
I love this guy but per-se-phone made me laugh. It's Per-se-pho-ne my guy.
So many people already called me out on that name. In my defense I don’t hear that name said out loud regularly at all. If you say it phonetically how it’s spelled it’s how I would say it, but because of Greek history for some reason “phone” is “phon-eee”.

noice
Lol Persephone is pronounced per-seff-any 😂😂😂😂 persaphone 😂😂😂😂
XD
His good at world building but not character building 🤣
And do a little research! Gaiman knows what he's writing!
So what are you angry about? He knows what he’s writing. Did I say he doesn’t know what he’s writing?
Maaan you mean to tell me once upon a time women actually wanted to be on top??? They just don’t make them like Lilith anymore 😞
Adam and his three wives, as I understand it, is not Biblical, but from Jewish studies. (Look, Jews existed long before Christians.)
Now, Neil Gaiman is of Jewish background. So as a curious young boy, he loved tricking his favorite Rabbi into telling him these things. 🤭

hey danny, I enjoy your videos a lot. But please don't say the term gypsy anymore, it's a slur.
You'll live.
sandman is kinda weak
lol spoken like a true Gen Z.
YEEEEEEES
And “Vassily” is pronounced “vah-seelee”, it’s Russian
