Sometimes words alone cannot contain Neil Gaiman’s creativity. This collection that begins the series of THE SANDMAN is a brilliant start to something magical. The idea alone is a standout, unique concept: to capture death, but end up capturing the dream maker instead. Wow. The story ramps up from t...

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...

If the first Sandman collection was near perfection, then this volume achieves it. Stunning.

I am finally reading these and can't believe I haven't until now. I am not an expert on comics and I know many people have written better reviews, so I won't go into detail. My favourite story was the one with the cereal (serial) killer convention. The collection is complex and quite hard to unders...

This is the second of The Sandman series. I like that the series has a defined end and I may continue to read it for that reason. The included cover art is good, although dated. The art of the comic itself is very much in the mainstream American tradition, which is an art style that I find a litt...

I did NOT like this book. Yes, Neil Gaiman is an amazingly original author whom I normally adore and the comic is well-drawn & executed BUT this does not make up for the sickening horror of so much of the book in the style of Palahnuik’s put-this-author-on-anti-psychotic’s Haunted. The only reason ...

How in the world is Neil Gaiman so good? I don't know, but he is. Season of Mists of continues the strange, disturbing, infinitely creative world of the Lord of Dreams. By now I spend way too much time staring at each page, as tiny story details often come back later (though not always obviously) an...

It's impossible to know what to expect in the Sandman series. Such great characters and fantastic storylines. Thoroughly entertaining.

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...
