I ran across this on a random website and thought it was very interesting, I for one had never heard of a LGBT comic book

background:: Here is one of my favorites from The Sandman, which had quite a few strongly portrayed LGBT characters. This week we meet Alvin Mann, also known as Wanda. Wanda is a pre-op transsexual who turned out to be too afraid of surgery to get the last bit... taken care of, if you get my drift.
Wanda is the neighbor and best friend of Barbie, who gets wrapped up in a misadventure in the dream world of Morpheus. As with many Sandman stories, it's not Morpheus but the side characters who have the greatest impact on us. Wanda makes her impact by guarding Barbie while she is asleep, left behind because she isn't a true woman and unable to walk the path into dreams opened by fellow neighbor and witch, Thessaly. Discussing it a bit later, she wasn't too happy about the rejection.
I would LOVE to read this! Where can I find it?
