And a connection in Kate Jackson's career that I'd certainly never put together:
There was also a Topper made-for-TV movie in 1979, that I never saw, but that was co-produced by actress Kate Jackson, who played Marion, and was thereby revisiting old territory, since she had made her television debut playing another ghost on Dark Shadows (see "Comics in Context" #11 and 12) opposite Joan Bennett, the sister of Constance, the original Marion. It's a weird web of connections, all right.
The article is actually about all sorts of other things that eventually lead to the subject of Topper. Those interested in wading through can check out: In-depth on Gaiman's Anansi Boys (http://comics.ign.com/articles/656/656802p1.html)
(And one can also check out the author's report on the 2003 Fest via the article's "Comics in Context" #11 and 12 links.)
