*grin* Yeah, I'm not much of a fan of snobby Literature major-type books, although the discussion Atonement fostered upped its enjoyment. I'll read it again one of these days.
I've read all of the Sandman GNs. I have to say, I teared up quite a bit after reading The Wake. I keep hoping Gaiman comes back to The Dream King but he seems content doing wonderful writing around other interesting characters. You should try The Dream Hunters next. And the Death books are pretty good. There's also a GN with stories outside of the comic run, although I forget the name. It's about each of the Endless in turn. Pretty wacked out, but in a good way.
I've been wanting for a while to write in some sort of encounter with the Endless into the Ariel comics. I know it isn't Marvel but I'll make an exception in this case, since they're not strictly DC either. Multi-line arcs. Oh yeah.
