Vertigo did something cool I have’t seen in a long time. The aired a commercial for one of their current books, Sandman Overture. I saw it while catching up on last weeks American Horror Story: Coven. The video can be seen here and is done in the motion comic format. Hopefully it will bring in some of the non-comic readers who read The Sandman. It highlights the fact there hasn’t been a new Sandman comic in 17 years.

If the shows become popular enough they will be made into movies or TV shows. This could bring some real heat to some books. Especially the Jessica Jones books that were well written and had a popularity of their own for the longest time. Alias could see a resurgence in popularity, as could the follow up series The Pulse.
