I went right back to the very beginning and read the first Vertigo comic. It's mostly made up of bits and pieces of other series, but there's also a Sandman story in there that's original. Though I usually refrain from including these sort of preview comics in the project, this one is pretty historically significant. Vertigo literally changed the way things were done in comics. It's interesting that this was happening at around the same time that the Image revolution was going on - two such different aesthetic movements within an ostensibly superheroic genre really does say something about the multiplicity of fans in the comics community. Honestly, anyone who says diversity is killing comics really has never been paying attention to them, have they?
