Yeah, I'm only about halfway through The Wake but the first few issues I have to admit I got kinda teary-eyed myself.

I hope that sometime a Sandman movie gets done. There's already a couple movies based on Gaiman novels in the works and there's been tons of comic book movies so if only those two genres can be combined.

Yeah, Death is my favorite character. She looks like she'd be pretty awesome to hang around and she's hot as heck too, in a goth sort of way. Too bad she's, you know, the physical personification of death and all...

Anyway, the name of the graphic novel that you're thinking of is Endless Nights. It has seven stories about one Endless each. It's at the university library and I'll check it out soon. I've wanted to know more about the Endless Desire, since it seems that he/she/it is the Endless that holds the most sway over my life...
