	Actually, if Delirium has any sort of 'flip side' at all,
wouldn't that be Delight?  

	Are there any ideas on why Del made her transformation?

This is all well and good, but Green Lantern rings are attuned to
the planetary rotation of the home planet of the ring-bearer (or
some convenient measurement of time).  Not all rings are good for
exactly the same amount of time...

For a while the only two comics I was getting were Sandman and Excalibur.
Since the two books were so different I was wondering what they had in
common to make me buy them.  The only thing they had in common was 
the both had British authors (Gaiman, Davis).  Later I dropped Excalibur
and started getting Archer and Armstrong.  Even later I found out that 
Barry Windsor Smith is British.  Since they are very different from 
each other, I was wondering what they had in common to make me get them.
Are British authors naturally superior?

 Personally I love Sarsparilla, which I think you call root beer...don't know

 As for beer, it's all cat's piss. The only difference between beers is the

He did the back of Madman Adventures first outing, but he's a busy

Which reminds me of Everyman, I don't remembering hearing anything

I had hoped that as a part of the "Death of Superman" story line, we would get
several issues of Supes paying a visit to the Afterlife of the DC Universe. 
After all, as delineated by Moore and Gaiman, this would be a pretty nifty plot
line (Imagine Superman meeting Death. Imagine Death telling Superman "Lex
Luthor? No, I never picked him up.")
Does anyone have a guess as to whether this idea is being pursued?

Miracleman 3D is a one shot revealing more of MM's dreams of the 'Golden

series (although it really has nothing to do with that story).
