If you enjoyed Gaiman's work you will really like his Sandman series. I've read watchmen about three times and love it more and more with each reading - my all time fav. Another one you should try...Alan Moore's run at Swamp Thing - just awesome.<BR> <BR>You've peaked my curiosity about the Eternals....will be picking it up.<BR> <BR>Take care,<BR>Peter.<BR><BR><BR><BR>

<P class=EC_MsoNormal><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">I haven’t read a ‘graphic novel’ for a number of years but a friend recently recommended “The Eternals” (Neil Gaiman and John Romita JR). I thought the artwork looked pretty good, threw my sensible middle aged comic apathy to the wind and bought a copy. This is the first comic (other than back-issues of Groo) I can remember buying in a loooooooooong time and was surprised to see a forward by ME. </SPAN></FONT></P>

In a bit of a mad spree I unsealed my Elektra Assassin and Dark Knight Returns, some of my old 2000AD stuff and even attempted to understand Stray Toasters again. Comics are back in my life and I have a hunger.</SPAN></FONT></P>
