Hello Neil! What do you think, what does Pestilence do in retirement?

neil-gaiman answered:

Spends a lot of time on the internet ranting about vaccines.

rocker-socks asked:

This perhaps may be a bit of a stupid question, and one I could be incredibly incorrect on as I haven't been to church in years, but why is Gabriel treated as Aziraphale's boss when Aziraphale ranks higher in the third sphere? Principalities rank higher than Archangels in Angel Hierarchy, and while Archangels are there to ensure fulfilment of roles (such as Armageddon) Gabriel would still rank lower than Aziraphale, so his treatment towards Aziraphale is a tad confusing for me.

neil-gaiman answered:

Terry and I were of the opinion that, in the world of Good Omens, archangels and Archangels were different things.

As Wikipedia explains, there are those who “make a distinction between archangel (with a lower-case a) and Archangel (with an uppercase A). The former can denote the second-lowest choir (arch-angels in the sense of being just above the lowest Choir of angels that is called only “angels”) but the latter may denote the highest of all the angels (i.e., Arch-angels in the sense of being above all angels, of any Choir. The seven highest Seraphim, Michael, being the highest of all).”

arrakeennightgaunts asked:

In Good Omens, I was kind of expecting Death to speak in ALL CAPS in the subtitles, but he doesn't (at least in the english ones). Was that just something that fell through the cracks or some technical reason that eludes me, a non-industry person?

neil-gaiman answered:

It’s been explained to me that the standards for subtitles strongly advise against all capitals because upper and lower case text is easier for people with reading issues (including dyslexia) to process faster.

lazy-lane asked:

I'm sure you've answered this in the past, but why do the demons have bugs and other creatures on their heads in the Good Omens show? And why are they so large? I've been wondering ever since I watched it.

neil-gaiman answered:

The other way of asking it of course, is why do the demons have people-shaped things beneath them to get them from place to place?
