Ideal tchotchke for the 'Sandman' afficionado
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
~This is a nifty little book that will be cherished for the most part by hard-boiled fans of Neil Gaiman's, 'Sandman' series. Casual fans or those without much knowledge of Gaiman's epic mythology would probablly be best advised not to read this until they've digested the series in it's entirety. Or maybe not. This book is slim and as far as text goes, quite sparse. Most readers will coast through this book in 15 minutes or so while still being able to appreciate the breadth of quality~~ artwork lining the pages. But to truly appreciate it do yourself a favor and make sure you read the entire series first.~
Clever oddity from Vertigo
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
This is an interesting little oddity in Neil Gaiman's brilliant Sandman mythos. Simply put, it is a book of some of the most memorable and thought-provoking lines from the 75 issues of "Sandman" comics and assorted specials, illustrated with pictures lifted from the same titles. Don't come in expecting a story or a great work of art -- it's not. What it is is a nice, compact little volume of wisdom and weirdness, great for the Sandman fan... or perhaps a good way to turn somebody INTO one.
Being a Sandman freak, I absolutely recomend it
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
Having said that, I must say that this is something you should buy once you have the whole Sandman collection. It doesn't have anything to add to the storyline, but the drawings... Ahhh... the drawings!!!Towards the end of the book (which is an adorable small size) there are some drawings that were never shown in the series and I was breathless... A great drawing of Desire, and one magnificent Death by some artist that clearly hasn't had all the credit he deserves. There is some preference for Delirium, who has lots of quotes and pages, but as a Tori Amos freak as well I can't complain.I'd say it's a must for any obsessive collectionist like me.
A great girft for a Sandman fan
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
This beautiful little book contains a lot of limited artwork, some panels from the series, and some of the greatest quotes from one of the greatest comic book series of all time.A personal favorite of mine: "Little one, I would like to see anyone--prophet, king, or GOD--convince a thousand cats to do the same thing at the same time."
Easy to Carry Sandman
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
I think this is a feelgood book. Lovely artwork (a lot of it I had not seen before) and realy good quotes, some of them funny, some of them sad all of them very wise. I was given it as a gift for my birthday and I think it is wonderful. Its a Sandman Book you can place in your pocket.My biggest complaint is it should have been even bigger but then it would not have fit in my pocket.
