early issue of Sandman and >many other places, maybe had his own series for
a while) so take it with a grain of salt (whatever that means).

nah, it definitely wasn't etirgan i was thinking of, though maybe the two
are related in some way...

*ouch*    :)

to be honest, i'm a little disappointed that no one's heard of it. i'd
assumed there was no occult scribblings obscure enough for someone on this
list not to have a book or two on. *sigh*
