Wow. You know you have an eclectic comic series on your hands when Gilbert/G.K. Chesterton makes an appearance, and a near-super-heroic one at that! The portly one knows his chivalry and how to sweep the knee.Sandman Volume 1: Preludes & Nocturnes is really good, but it can't hold a candle to Watchm...
Cheap thrills with patterns in the universe: I ordered this book and [b:Jim Henson's Tale of Sand|11480909|Tale of Sand|Jim Henson|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1344689570s/11480909.jpg|16415882] from SFBC. On receiving the box and flipping open The Doll's House, I see that the first section is title...
4.5 starsEven darker and more twisted than the first, if that's possible, with interconnecting storylines that really pull you into the Sandman's world. Rose is an interesting character, and I hope that she makes more appearances in the next volumes. The "Convention of Collectors" was disgusting, pe...

I think this might be my favorite volume. The recurring themes--glass hearts, Red Riding Hood, the maiden/mother/crone image, dolls--are great, and it contains two of my favorite single issues in all of Sandman: "Tales in the Sand" and "Men of Good Fortune."This is the re-colored edition, and it's g...
This is a graphic novel that has all the potential to make me obsessed with it. It has everything: an engaging plot, interesting characters, great art, and a story that transcends the boundaries of paper. Of course, it could all go downhill from here, but from what little I know about the rest of th...
