	Cain - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		God's rejection of Cain's sacrifice (korban in Hebrew) of fruit and grain in preference to Abel's blood sacrifice of a lamb drove Cain to murder his brother in a jealous rage.
		Cain protested that he would be killed by those he encountered, in reply to which God gave Cain a special mark and decreed that any who killed him would suffer vengeance "sevenfold." Cain then settled in the Land of Nod, east of Eden.
		The story of Cain and Abel is also told in the Qur'an (5:27-32), where Cain is not named; however, in Islamic tradition he is called Qabil, while Abel is called Habil.

	Cain and Abel (comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cain and Abel are a pair of fictional characters in the DC Comics universe based on the Biblical Cain and Abel.
		Abel stammeringly took abuse from both Cain and the House of Secrets itself, and had an "imaginary" (it was always rendered in quotes) girlfriend named Goldie, who berated him, too.
		Cain is often mean to Abel, but he is jovial and friendly storyteller to children and does everything he can to help Superman when the need once arose.

	Cain's Biography
		Cain, the Caretaker was introduced to DC comics by Joe Orlando in House of Mystery #175, 1969.

		Cain was supposed to marry Abel's twin, Jumella, and Abel Cain's twin, Aclima.

	History
		Cain, Abel, and Eve would participate in 'storyteller showdowns' competing in various situations for the prominence of being the best storyteller (of course Cain always outdid all of them!) In the end it didn't really matter who told the best story since they were just going to get plopped.
		Cain reassured us with his parting words that as long as we believed in him, the supernatural, and the House of Mystery, it still existed.
		Cain was a regular, along with his doofus brother throughout all 75 issues of The Sandman, and even more paneltime in the following series, The Dreaming.

	comics : essential reads
		Alan Moore's finest work and probably the greatest comic ever written, Watchmen changed the face of comics when it first appeared in the late 80's.
		The characters have more personality than most comic book figures, and Moore perfectly portrays the insanity of Rorschach, the aloofness and inhumanity of Dr. Manhattan, and the creepiness of the Comedian (even though we only see him in flashback).
		He tackles a wide range of comic archetypes within the framework of a grand struggle between the mysterious Planetary organization and The Four, an even more mysterious and deadly group whose unknown agenda has affected every aspect of human history since the 1960's.

	Sequential Tart - A Comics Industry Web Zine: The T&A Issue (Volume II, Issue 2, February 1999)
		We were already getting the "I'm tired of Cain and Abel" mail before Peter and I started writing Many Mansions, actually, and I suggested that some of the issues in the arc approach the consequences of the destruction of the House of Mystery and Cain's subsequent disintegration indirectly.
		I do know it's a very difficult time for comics, and it would have been great to be involved in the boom just a few years back, when there was so much less tension and anxiety, and so a lot more freedom for experimentation.
		When I began working on the book, what struck me was that you have these characters, Cain and Abel, Lucien, Matthew, Mervyn Pumpkinhead, Eve, Jumella, and so on, and they've all, in effect, just lost the single thing that gave their lives meaning and direction — Lord Morpheus.

	The Unofficial Aclima Biography

		The title, harking back to the Biblical story of brothers Cain and Abel, may lead the reader to expect a particular kind of story, but author Harms turns that expectation on its head.
		There is much to think about after reading Abel – about the total helplessness some people feel in the face of bullying from family members, about the lies we tell ourselves and others, about facing racism in our communities.
		This story is good for shonen manga (boys’ comics) and anime fans who want more history in their action, especially those who like Rurouni Kenshin.

	Son of the Gun #1 - Born in the Trash - PopMatters Comic Book Review
		It is the story of Cain and Abel.

		His panel placement and angle choices allows your eye to move over the pages so quickly that it is possible to spin though them in 20 minutes.

	The Comics Get Serious--Review of Sandman: The Dream Hunters
		The story is vintage Gaiman Sandman: possessed of the rhythms of folktales, interweaving the genuine article with Dreaming imagery, such as the two men he meets on the way--the original folktale included them, and Gaiman turned them into Cain and Abel, though of course without naming them as such.
		According to Amano's bio, this book is his "American comics debut," though this is not a piece of sequential art, so that statement is incorrect.
		Note that the nudity consists of a few bare breasts, but because the art is so fine, and the illustrations are obviously not there to titillate, I don't think this book would be objectionable to most parents--no more so than an art book with a few classic paintings depicting bare-breasted women, anyway.

		It's been a mish mosh of New Age, various comics about Witches, Hellblazer hasn't had a true regular writer in some time, Swamp Thing is a gory mess that seems to be looking for something resembling a storyline.
		We've had The Dreaming which was a crushing bore, which killed Matthew the raven pointlessly, which should have been called "Cain and Abel Comics" and we've had spin-off after spin-off of characters from Sandman which simply didn't have any momentum beyond their limited series.
		John Ney Reiber references it in his Comics Journal interview in the latest issue, although he doesn't name Sebastian O he does mention his involvement and Enigma.

		The population is truly powerless before the titanic struggles of these godlike beings and outside the law vigilantes -- as a result, resentment, fear and foreboding cannot help but creep in when things begin to spiral out of control.
		This series is told from the viewpoint of two brothers on somewhat opposite sides of the law, but Busiek resists the easy route of overplaying this as a Cain and Abel analogy.
		I understand that artist Brent Anderson may not be flashy enough for those who drool over the deformed and overbaked art of Michael Turner and Jim Lee, but he’s got a solid sense of the basics and he tells the story clearly and competently without the distraction of attention-getting bells & whistles.

		The nanites that revive him from death continually don't seem to be functioning properly.
		So in "the dreaming" (from the Sandman comics) Mitch helps and gets help in return from the Phantom Stranger and Deadman, while some strange tricks are turned in Abel's house of secrets.
		The story works so well, providing more and more surprises, first as the Stranger bursts on the scene, then when Deadman pokes his ghostly head in, and then when the trio land in the middle of Cain and Abel's chess game.
