Time profiles the Dream King

Time Magazine's European arm talks to a very busy Neil Gaiman:

Instead, in the morning, the British-born Gaiman will climb on a plane — where he'll finish writing an article on Superman — for the Addams Family–style house near Minneapolis, Minnesota, where he has lived since 1992. There he will knuckle down to his screen adaptation of Charles Burns' teen-horror, graphic-novel series Black Hole. Then, Gaiman must deliver the first of six issues of The Eternals, a resurrected Marvel Comics creation from the '70s. Oh, and he also needs to finish a book of short stories, as well as The Graveyard Book, a tale of an orphan child being raised by dead people. In his spare time, he may swing by Los Angeles to see how Roger Zemeckis' animated version of Beowulf, for which Gaiman rewrote the oldest epic in the English language, is coming along.

Isn't that too much to juggle? Gaiman, jet-lagged but engaged, rocks one hand from side to side in answer. "I'm pushing it," he admits. "Right now is the first time I've ever looked around and thought, 'That's not sane.'"
