Yoshitaka Amano’s 2006 collaboration with Neil Gaiman and David Bowie - I wanted to make the story about David Bowie coming to the city of New York. Iman is the queen, and she’s waiting for the Duke to rescue her, and she’s been waiting for a thousand years. But when I told that to Iman, she said that in real life that would never happen. [Laughs] She’d never wait that long. (Amano on The Return of the Thin White Duke, for V Magazine.)
