28. The Sandman: Endless Nights - Neil Gaiman

The 2nd Dev loan, also meant to broaden my Gaiman repertoire. This time a series of comics. And I'm not really sure what to say. I liked the comics. But I am not sure why exactly. And I am also not sure that I entirely understood them. Which is why I usually stay away from comics that aren't in the local paper or don't include a lot of pow, blam, gack and an obvious conclusion.

I guess it can be fair to say that while I have always enjoyed the comics I have read I haven't exactly gotten into them. I haven't felt immersed by them. It's always a sort of "that was good, but ..." and I'm not sure what the but is. I'm not dismissing comics out of hand because I have read some of them, they're just not my thing. And I feel bad saying that, just like I feel bad admitting there are other things I don't enjoy. Maybe because I feel like if I say I don't like something it will dissuade others from trying it or enjoying it. And wow if that is the case is that ever egotistical of me because I am sure that people have better things to do than take their cue from my series of beliefs; of likes and dislikes. Then again I also think we (possibly especially me) underestimate our sphere of influence.
