MABB v6.6.6

Any body here read this comic book "The Sandman" (by Vertigo)? This is a great read, and you'll be hooked. Mature readership obviously.

This is a character from the series. Pretty fucked up if you ask me.

Abzu is big on the gaiman stuff. I've only read part of the first trade.

The story telling is superb.

the corinthian

i am currently reading this and so far it is very good, i'm almost through the second trade paperback. i started it when i was a kid but never got past preludes and nocturnes. probaly gonna grab the third TPB this weekend

I'm currently on my dozenth or so read through. Sandman was my introduction to Gaiman's work and the reason I named my former longstanding band Morpheus. It is one of the best comics to happen. When you finish it, read Death: The High Cost Of Living & Death: The Time Of Your Life, Sandman: Endless Nights, and then Sandman Overture.

hey abzu did you ever read that spinoff called the dreaming? i remember having the first issue or two around the same time i had the first sandman TPB, but i have no recollection of it or if it's supposed to be any good

ooooh, I forgot all about that.

I bought the first issue when it ran, but was broke ass at the time and never kept on. I liked it. I think I need to look for a tpb and read that thing proper!

2 Trades listed under the bibliography on wikipedia. It doesn't like like they are still in print though. Checked a few sites and only thing I've seen is used copies. I can keep an eye out when I hit my local shops if you are really that interested

i wanna say i'd heard they were doing new stuff but i dunno how psyched i can get for sandman minus neil gaiman

i dunno what 'curation' really means here, but he doesn't have any writing credits so i am skeptical

I think he's overseeing the whole project instead of writing for 4 books at the same time

well maybe if he didn't busy himself with all of this overseeing nonsense he'd have time to tackle four projects at once!

No time to stop being busy with how busy he is

I am skeptical. I will reserve judgement. Overseeing says to me that it won't be a fuck all shitfest, but it also won't be Gaiman level writing.

Maybe he's gonna use their hands to write the story
