Okay, not really a debatable subject (maybe it is) but what would some
good "starter" Gaiman stuff be? I really liked 'Day of the Dead" that
he did for Babylon 5 and I've read a few short stories in Sandman that
I liked. (One was about a cat telling other cats how they used to
rule the world and chased humans (as humans used to be smaller IIRC)
and at the end one of the cats listening to the lecture was dreaming
about chasing people and its owners said "aw how cute, he's dreaming
about catching mice.") Anyway, kinda got misdirected from the
question, but thanks for any advice and the like.
