@Satsuki said in Western Comics thread:
You sometimes forget that Neil Gaiman did more than just Sandman for graphic novels. I just read "Snow, Glass, Apples", a mini-one he did which is pure Gaiman if someone told him to tell a dark, somewhat twisted version of Snow White.
I might be mistaking the chicken from the egg as to which came first, but I think that's from a short story he did that was then adapted into a comic! There's a couple collections of his short stories and they're all lovely.
I highly recommend "The Neil Gaiman Reader". It's not everything but it is the stories chosen by fans covering his long career and most are pretty good. The original version of Snow, Glass and Apples is in there, though the comic is pretty much the same.
If you also pick up Trigger Warning, there's a little overlap but I think that's almost all his short stuff.
Stardust is the weirdest one. I originally read it as a novel, then discovered it was originally released s a fully illustrated novel, but the text is the same in it's entirety. That's the version I keep now.
