The script at the end of Vol II or III (I can't remember which) was really interesting. It's almost a movie. I'm amazed at the detail in which he visualizes the comic before it's drawn.

It's interesting that you say that. Gaiman drawing comics from a movie-like script. Whereas those Matrix fellows made a movie from a comic-like script, even down to drawing panels and such.

Almost every movie is storyboarded--it helps the director know what the movie will look like, and the production crew to know what they have to build, where to put the cameras, where to put the lights, and so on.
My previous encounter with Gaiman was his books, so it was interesting to see something with different conventions. It made me wonder how much more he knows but doesn't tell about the people in his novels. ("I'd always imagined him with green socks, actually, not brown")
Oh, and you should pick up the two Death collections if you can =) I think I have the first somewhere here. I'll chew through the Sandman books first, though--my wallet's hurting at the cost of those!
