“Most characters in comics simply didn’t have any families, and it was
something I loved..... It was something I loved to write about.....When I first
came out to America, people told me that in _The Sandman_ I created a
dysfunctional family, which was not a phrase I had heard before that in
England..... I talked to people about it, and I realized that what people in
America called ‘a dysfunctional family’ was the same thing that we in
England referred to as ‘a family.’.....You didn’t see a lot of functional
ones.”
----Neil Gaiman, SANDMAN, AMERICAN GODS, Books Of Magic writer
“I want my children to have all the things I couldn't afford. Then I want to move in with them.”

----From 'SUPERMAN FOR ALL SEASONS',.....On many a 'TOP-5-SUPERMAN-STORIES EVER' list, the story that inspired the creation of the TV SHOW 'SMALLVILLE', written by Jeph Loeb, who later also wrote for the show....
