A New York Times bestseller!

From the award-winning writer of American Gods and Coraline, The Sandman is one of the most popular and critically acclaimed graphic novels of all time. Neil Gaiman's award-winning masterpiece set the standard for mature, lyrical fantasy in the modern comics era.

Illustrated by an exemplary selection of the medium's most gifted artists, the series is a rich blend of modern and ancient mythology in which contemporary fiction, historical drama, and legend are seamlessly interwoven. 

An unforgettable tale of the forces that exist beyond life and death, this first of four volumes—drawn by Sam Kieth, Mike Dringenberg, Malcolm Jones III, and Kelley Jones, with spectacular guest art by Chris Bachalo, Colleen Doran, Charles Vess, and Michael Zulli—introduces readers to a dark and enchanting world of dreams and nightmares: the home of Morpheus, the King of Dreams, and his kin, the Endless. 

Collects the story arcs "Preludes and Nocturnes," "The Doll's House," and "Dream Country," from The Sandman #1-20—including the first comic book to ever win a World Fantasy Award, issue #19s "A Midsummer Night's Dream."

Title: Wonderful new edition. Big bang for your buck
Review: I ordered 3 copies of this for a "favorites party" my wife was throwing; the idea is you get together with friends and bring 3 copies of one of your favorite things, and then everyone does like a dirty santa style exchange and walks away from the party with 3 different things that are their friends' favorite thigns.I didn't really read the product description here, jsut say Sandman vol 1 and that he price fit under the party limit, and I ordered them. I fully expected copies of the old vol 1 TPB that only has the first story arch in it- like 6 issues. Imagine my surprised when this monster arrives with the first 3 story arcs, 20 issues- this is less than $1 per comic! Absolutely bonkers!Now, I'm not going to buy the rest of this edition, because I have the Absolute Editions on my shelf, but I think there's a very good chance my 3 friends will want to continue this series and will be picking up the rest.All that talk about this particular edition out of the way, as you can guess, I believe Sandman is one of the greatest comics ever produced. It's a beautiful story, rich in imagination and poetry and art. If you've never read it, buy this version (again, less than $1 per comic, CRAZY) and dive right in.

Title: Amazing Book
Review: I love the book, it has absolutely incredible art work and I've truly been appreciating reading it while comparing it to the show on Netflix. The book did come with slight damage on the back but it personally didn't bother me. And the book was soooo much bigger than I expected.

Title: A collection of fine stories in one great book.
Review: What else can someone can say about the Sandman that hasn't been said?It's very good; with well written stories, great cast and excellent artwork (now recolorized by the way).Pick this one up and see if it is your cup of tea, you won't regret it.Also if you can, pick the audible too. The order is altered and there are some changes for modern sensibilities that I don't fully appreciate, but it is worth it nevertheless.

Review: The covers might look different because i have put book cover on it.Sandman was one of the first things I ever read outside of the text with my own curiosity. And it didn't not disappointed me, rather it hooked me on reading. Neil Gailman is one of the best writer out and the way he crafts thus world of endless, this dreamland it mesmerizing. It's something I will always remember and everyone should read this once

Review: Neil Gaiman, and all the artists and creators working with him, did manage to surprise me! Although there were stories I liked more and stories I liked less I had an amazing time reading this very dark and thought provoking collection. The world building is done over all the installments and the more comics I read, the more I started to admire how well thought out everything seemed! Although the artwork is not really my style it does fit the story and the characters and the world. I got that excited that I already got the next collection!

Review: Ho comprato questo articolo per completare la collezione dei quattro volumi di Sandman che dovevo regalare.Tenendo conto che il valore del prodotto diminuisce notevolmente se non arriva in condizioni intonse e che la persona a cui è stato regalato è fanatica di queste cose, sono felice di dire che il volume è arrivato in perfette condizioni! Non c'erano ammaccature alla copertina né altri segni strani, che come si sa, è uno dei rischi di acquistare così a scatola chiusa.Tutti felici e soddisfatti.
