Editorial Reviews

Review

"The greatest epic in the history of comic books." —The Los Angeles Times Magazine

"One of the few comics that segued from the comics crowd, entering the intellectual and art worlds, winning over a large non-comics-reading audience." —The Hollywood Reporter

"The Sandman is a modern myth, as well as a precis on why the stories we tell matter so much." —Playboy

"The landmark comic-book series that actually made Death seem ... cool." —Entertainment Weekly

“The greatest epic in the history of comic books.” —The Los Angeles Times Magazine
 
“A deftly realized classical tragedy, full of epic struggles and tantalizing throwaway lines, it sets an extremely high watermark for graphic storytelling.” —The San Francisco Examiner & Chronicle

Wow I almost don't wanna read anymore. I guess I have 1 left or 2 but either way, this feels like the end. But wow what great writing and art and just everything, Watchmen has been and I thought always would be hands down my favorite always but Sandman has been up to the test so far and might be tied with that for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best graphic novel ever written!
Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2021

Gaiman is a masterful storyteller and this is his greatest graphic novel. The Sandman is probably the great comic book ever and this is the best of his stories. It has everything a great novel needs and is written and drawn masterfully. My only fear is stab show adaptations will water down his masterful works in the name of progress. Art should be immune from political correctness.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best of the best

This is the longest of the Sandman books and the most amazing, but to be honest I have felt that way about all of them.
In this one I found myself taking the side of different characters in different places and constantly changing my allegiance to different characters. I love these characters so much and by the end, I was crying my eyes for different reasons.
I felt joy for some characters and sorrow for others. I try not to give away to much in reviews unless I mark it as spoilers because I love the journey of a story above all else. So I will just say, Read this entire series, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.

I do not write reviews but I feel like my voice needs to be heard on this on. The Sandman series is one of genius! The story telling and artwork is unmatched, with a certain dark beauty that had not been done before. If you haven’t read this series, please pick it up. Neil Gaiman is a fantastic story teller who puts you in the world. So many thumbs up!!

This book really by far the heaviest of the volumes. I want to hate it but I cant. I know it just went full circle. Truly a masterpiece in not just graphic novels but literature as a whole.

5.0 out of 5 stars Puts it all together
Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2020

This is definitely the best volume so far. Up to this point, the stories in each volume felt independent and only loosely related. This volume puts everything into perspective, like a well thought out game of Tetris. And this is where I shut up, so as not to spoil anything, because it would be a shame.

All things must end. It is something that Morpheus has come to realise since the death of his son. But, as one of the Endless, Morpheus is relied upon by his creations to keep the Dreaming from collapsing into itself.

Gaiman's stunning sequence is foreboding, doom laden and melancholic. However it is also triumphant and beautiful with the most wonderful focus on Morpheus' relationship with his sisters.
