TW: Sexual assault mentioned and depicted below the break.
In the Neil Gaiman expose, they bring up Gaiman's story of a failed writer raping Calliope, youngest of the Nine Muses, and using her powers of inspiration to become an author lauded for his feminism. If any of the accusations towards Gaiman are true, he will go down as (among other horrible things) another creator who, like Louis C.K., lacked any self-awareness when just a fraction could have saved him and others a lot of pain.
A page from "Calliope" in Sandman 17, written by Gaiman with pencils by Kelley Jones and inked by Malcolm Jones III.
