British author Neil Gaiman is currently embroiled in serious allegations of sexual assault and harassment, leading to his publisher severing ties with him. His name is absent from the website of the agency that has managed his speaking engagements for several years.

Dark Horse Comics, a publisher of illustrated adaptations, announced over the weekend that it will no longer publish works based on Gaiman's popular novel, Anansi Boys. This decision comes shortly after the release of what was intended to be the seventh of eight planned installments. A statement from Dark Horse emphasized their commitment to taking the allegations seriously while still displaying Gaiman's books on their site.

The allegations against Gaiman, a prominent figure known for his works like Coraline and The Sandman series, first surfaced last summer during a Tortoise Media podcast. Following an extensive article by New York Magazine in January that featured accounts from eight women claiming assault and coercive behavior, Gaiman publicly denied the accusations in a blog post, asserting that he does not recognize the events as abusive.

Gaiman's team and literary agent have not provided comments following the news. Over the years, he has collaborated with various publishers; however, HarperCollins and WW Norton have publicly stated they have no plans to distribute his books going forward. Meanwhile, other publishers, including Bloomsbury, have yet to publicly address the situation.

Despite still listing the Stephen Barclay Agency for personal appearances on his website, Gaiman is no longer listed as a client with the agency. The agency also did not respond to requests for clarification. Additionally, Disney has put a hold on its adaptation of Gaiman’s The Graveyard Book, while plans for a second season of Netflix's The Sandman remain in place.
