Absolute Sandman, Volume 2: 02

book arrived in it's own original protective box, inside the Amazon parcel + paper padding. Very happy with this

Stunning leather-bound version of Sandman. Absolutely massive! Fantastic item delivered on time and as described

This is arguably the best Sandman absolute volume, comprising "the season of mists" and "a game of you" storylines. Two tales that are very different but equally important.

this come on time it was meant to come. Really good quailty.

Sandman is one of the most beautiful of books I have read.It is a masterpiece of both art and storytelling, Neil Gaiman has constructed a world I cannot quite tear my imagination away from. The stories within this book are terrific- they inspire terror- they are awesome.Read this book.

Arrived in perfect condition and fabulously presented.

Best ever!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have owned The Sandman in almost every iteration, from the original monthly comic books to softbound 'graphic novel' collected works. With Absolute Sandman, I will never need another copy as they are simply beautiful. Each large leather bound tome is encased in a matching sleeve with artwork by the legendary Dave McKean. His distinctive stylings are further reproduced on each cover, with attractive stamped detail and silver lettering. Whether you are an old fan or a newcomer, I can't recommend this set of books highly enough. They are still as fresh and immersive today as the first time I found them, and stand up well as the pinnacle of the author's storytelling powers. I'll forever be appreciative of Neil Gaiman's other work but for me The Sandman is a true legacy.Volume Two begins with a foreword by Alisa Kwitney. The cover is teasingly decorated with the all too familiar key to Hell, which heralds the brilliant Season of Mists story arc. It may be these particular books that galvanized me as a Sandman fan for life, with its depictions of Lucifer, Heaven and Hell. The artwork too still has the power to surprise. Further into the series is the Game of You storyline, which introduces us to characters that will become familiar such as Thessaly, Barbie and Wanda. At the end of the book is a ten page story from 1997, reprinted for the very first time. It's a rare glimpse of Desire in solo form, featuring beautifully painted panels by John Bolton.Like the first collection, Volume Two also ends with the script and unfinished pencils, this time for Sandman #23. But it's the pages of artwork preceding that are the true treasure trove, showcasing work by names like Mike Mignola, Jamie Hewlett, Simon Bisley and Alex Ross. Truly stunning.

After ordering the Absolute Overture last year I dove into ordering the whole Absolute series. Amazing!

Good

The product came in the mail in a sturdy package and wasn't damaged at all, not even the edges. It is a quality product, very slick and feels good in the hand.
