Dark Horse Comics Ends Relationship with Neil Gaiman Over Sexual Assault Allegations

The publisher cancels Gaiman's 'Anansi Boys' comic series and halts all future collaborations following multiple accusations of misconduct.

Dark Horse Comics announced it will no longer publish Neil Gaiman's works, citing serious allegations of sexual assault against the author.
The decision includes the cancellation of the 'Anansi Boys' comic series, which was set to conclude with its eighth issue, and a planned collected volume.
The allegations, first reported in mid-2024 and expanded upon in a recent New York Magazine article, involve claims from at least nine women, some of whom provided corroborating evidence.
Gaiman has denied all allegations of non-consensual sexual activity, admitting to personal failings but rejecting descriptions of abusive behavior.
The fallout has also impacted Gaiman's Hollywood projects, with Prime Video altering plans for 'Good Omens' Season 3 and Disney pausing its adaptation of 'The Graveyard Book.'
