I just completed reading the 14 books that comprise Neil Gaiman’s Sandman series, and I just felt like I read 1,000 of the greatest books every written. Forgive the hyperbole, but Sandman is so rich and so deep and complete that I can think of no other way to describe it.
Neil Gaiman has created a work of mythology that effortlessly creates new ideas and intertwines with our existing world, its histories, beliefs, literature and art. The original ten books are easily the best comics I have ever read and the four additional volumes are a great way to revisit characters and close some old plot threads.
I can’t recommend this enough to anyone interested in art and literature.
