You already know that I would sell my soul to Neil Gaiman. Well, one of my souls...
I love that it's a graphic novel series, and that gas mask thingy is really awesome. I think I've read through volume 7 or 8. Must read more.

One of your souls?? Creeeeepy

Good to see your back Em, haven't seen you around here in a while...
as a side note, Gaiman has also published side-story books to accompany the Sandman, The Furies, a Death series, and another one that he did with a Japanese guy that isn't coming to mind right now...

Sandman - America
Written by Dewey Bunnell, ©1971

Ain't it foggy outside
All the planes have been grounded
Ain't the fire inside?
Let's all go stand around it
Funny, I've been there
And you've been here
And we ain't had no time to drink that beer

'Cause I understand you've been running from the man
That goes by the name of the Sandman
He flies the sky like an eagle in the eye
Of a hurricane that's abandoned

Ain't the years gone by fast
I suppose you have missed them
Oh, I almost forgot to ask
Did you hear of my enlistment?

Funny, I've been there
And you've been here
And we ain't had no time to drink that beer

'Cause I understand you've been running from the man
That goes by the name of the Sandman
He flies the sky like an eagle in the eye
Of a hurricane that's abandoned ...

I've only read the first two volumes. I may go back and read them again before proceeding now that I've studied some Freud, because his dream theories apply very well to everything that Gaiman does.
