Overheard this weekend in the wonderful Page 45 graphic novel / comic book store was this line:
She likes Death so I'll get it for her.
Anyone else think this raises as many questions as I do? Whilst I am very familiar with the wonderful characterisation of Death that Gaiman constructs - female, goth, witty, prone to puncturing the dour balloon of Dream's approach to his role - one can't help think that a preference for death (taken more abstractly) suggests some problems.... n'est pas?
