Love love love!! Absolutely understandable and reasonable that this is such a classic comic, considering the combination of Gaiman's ever-interesting and wonderful writing and the absolutely fantastic and innovative artwork and very cool style throughout the series.
Contains a few 80s/90s-isms but still quite enjoyable overall, and a really solid core story and set of characters, as evidenced by the amazing TV adaptation.
