Sandman - Edição Definitiva, Vol. 1

An interesting beginning to this massive work. When I picked this out, sight unseen from the library, I had no idea what I was getting into...each volume a little over 600 pages it seems. Still, I did want to read ‘The Sandman’ and not knowing where to start, I decided, I suppose, to ‘start’ with all of it. I have enjoyed the evolving look of Morpheus through this first volume. Gaiman has an incredible mind and a gift for conjuring stories that include the oddest of characters and he has surrounded himself with some of the best in the business to create ‘The Absolute Sandman.’ I look forward to reading the rest.

after hearing so many good things about this series, I'm finally starting it.
it's quite dense, plot-wise, and I'm still not sure if this sexy immortal-man-of-mystery is supposed to be a hero or villain (I'm imagining a mix of Neil Gaiman himself with a heavy dose of Alan Rickman's Snape) but I'm enjoying the romp so far. this was a huge volume - 600+ pages - and I didn't look ahead to see how many volumes there were, so imagine my oh cripes! reaction when I finally saw there are 5 volumes. so this will not be a quickly achieved goal.
