28 Year old Comic Book Geek here. Love Todd McFarlane and Neil Gaimen. The whole falling out was that Todd used some of Gaimen's created characters without permission. Todd also designed the look of the Spider-Man character "Venom" which he is currently trying to receive credit for legally. If you like Gaimen, I highly recommend a book by him titled "The Dream Hunters".
