One cool thing in the NY ComicCon sign-in bag: a postcard promoting a Clive Barker exhibit at Sloan Fine Art on the Lower East Side. The reception has come and gone (April 17), but the show is up through May 10, and features a series of conceptual paintings for the upcoming film adaptation of Barker's own short story "The Midnight Meat Train" (out this summer). "Meat Train" was the second story I read in Barker's Books of Blood when I bought the collection back in 1988, and it has always made me think of Manhattan as a place that will carve you up into choice cuts for underground cannibals if you're not careful. Of course, that was before Guiliani cleared them all out. (Killjoy.)
