Just starting to read Hellblazer through the Original Sins book, and I had a few questions regarding further reading. Obviously with a book that went 300 issues, it won't all be gold. So, to save myself a bit of trial and error, I thought I'd ask a few questions:

1) After Original Sins, which would you consider to be the essential Hellblazer trades? I already plan on getting The Family Man because of the Neil Gaiman and Grant Morrison penned issues.

2) If I want to skip around and only read the better trades, will I be lost in continuity? Would I really have to read every issue to understand what's going on?

3) Last one: Which Hellblazer storylines are your favorites? So that I know which ones to look out for!

Thanks for all the help!
