I have a t-shirt with an image of a dark-haired female character from The Sandman with the quote, “You Get What Everyone Gets - You Get A Lifetime.” She’s also wearing a rather large ankh as a pendant.
I’ve never read any of the series. The only Sandman comic-book characters that every mattered to me was the Spider-Man foe, and the Golden-Age Sandman, whom I see Gaiman kinda revived. Ick. I think I’ll stick with Flint Marko.
addendum: damn! why did he have to go and ruin one of my favorite G.A. characters? stupid fucking man-creature!
That’s Death… she’s a great character… I had a Death shirt that was just of her that I got from some boy back in the 90s, and I loved it so much that when ti started to fall apart I clip it out and sewed in on a new shirt… But I guess I’ll never wear it again now.
edit: the shirt, your avg Hot Topic t-shirt style from 2001, is now cut down to just above my navel. I could either wear it over a tank top or sew in an insert.
Addendum: Ummm, I don’t think this is something he just up and started to do almost 20 years ago. I mean, what was he doing at the peak of his fame, eh?
