		Cain and Abel are a pair of fictional characters in the DC Comics universe based on the Biblical Cain and Abel.

	Cain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		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.

		The Sandman can never be considered to be taking itself too seriously, theres great onrunning gags and gallows humour: The slapstick double team of Cain and Abel, Merv Pumpkinhead, The convention for serial killers, Merv Pumpkinhead.....
		I bought Sandman when it came out as a comic, and didn't switch to trades until it was pretty clear that I could get decent money for my comics...and traded the whole batch for a bunch of trades (including the Sandman trades).
		Sandman was nearly cancelled a couple of times early in its run, and without the trade sales, it probably would not have gone much past issue #50.
