That is widely reported, but not exactly true. Delirium existed quite a while before Neil met Tori. Neil found Tori to be very Delirium like, and started incorporating bits of Tori into the character. Her appearance started to become more Tori-like after a while as well. Still, the character was around before Tori and Neil met. There is a tree in Stardust that is completely based on Tori Do not hurry yourself in your spirit to become offended, for the taking of offense is what rests in the bosom of the stupid ones.

I really enjoyed "Coraline," but that's all I know of his work. My brothers, both of whom are HUGE graphic novel fans, LOVE Mr. Gaiman. "She made me glad to be a man" | |

By the way, Henry Selick (the director of Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas and James And The Giant Peach) is currently doing a stop-motion adaptation of Coraline, due out in 2007!!!

He doesn't do the artwork on his comics. He's the writer. Oops...thanks for that. All those who believe in telekinetics, raise my hand...
