Volume II of this series is as gorgeous as Volume I. There are two main stories, only one of which I'd read before. The first, about Lucifer abdicating as ruler of Hell, did not appeal to me as much as the second, about The Cuckoo, with its cast of characters from under-represented groups and very m...
Although this series is quite enjoyable, occasionally witty, now with a touch of romance thrown in, the whole endeavour is still too wordy for my liking. There’s a lot of (too much?) explanation around the fighting and development of the characters. The artwork is generally good but nothing special....
Kevin teams up with Joe and later Kirby (Heracles) to take out the nasties and many more warriors (those with abilities) join in. A whole new batch of characters, supernatural beings and principal villain are introduced. It’s not the most engaging of plot lines but the artwork is reasonably done. En...
Kevin Matchstick, the Mage of the title, continues his efforts to survive against the denizens of the Faerie Kingdom while slowly recognising his new role. No new characters are introduced but there’s plot development and continuity. It’s a better Volume and I’m getting used to the simpler artwork. ...
Kevin Matchstick develops magical powers as a conflict between supernatural powers spills out into our world. He gains various allies of a different nature along the way. The volume explains the various characters and situation and presents them in a light manner. The artwork is fairly basic, colour...
*Book source ~ Library From Goodreads: Volume Four of New York Times best selling author Neil Gaiman's acclaimed creation, with updated coloring and new trade dress. Ten thousand years ago, Morpheus condemned a woman who loved him to Hell. Now the other members of his immortal family, The Endless,...
I haven't seen this series in too long. I really do adore it, and have since I first saw it. This graphic novel is composed of stories set in that universe: the title story is about Joker and Harley Quinn, although the other stories - reprints of Annuals, and I'm sure reprints of other stories f...
More fine artwork from Amy Reeder Hadley, this time paired with an excellent story from Matt Wagner. Spanning distances from Arthur's England to Marco Polo's Asia to, of course, some spectral Nowhere, the narrative tells of the exile of a forest nymph and her dealings across eras with someone known...
In Neil Gaiman's own words (from the introduction), these stories are an assortment of 'curiosities and oddments', including some examples of his earliest writing for comics, and a couple of one-off stories.The first few are Swamp Thing stories. I have next to zero knowledge of Swamp Thing, aside fr...
I think maybe I'm not cover enough for The Sandman series. Or maybe I haven't read enough. In no way though does this detract from this graphic novel. It gives you nightmares, makes you think and reminds you what a genius Gaiman is. The idea of everyone coming back to 'life' from hell is very creepy...
