After reading the Vulture/New Yorker article I have chosen to remove my reviews of this man's content from my accounts. I choose to place this text here because I think it is important to juxtaposition these things. I also don't think that pretending I never read these things is particularly helpful either.
Rereading Sandman for the first time in 20 years, it is so far my favorite volume, probably because it's one narrative unit centering around Dream and his family.
Previous volumes had amazing stories too, but there was a lack of unity in some of them (not to mention a lack of the main character). Yet, a lot of these previous stories were necessary to establish a lot of the things that make this one story as well as the following ones the masterpieces that they are. As, if I remember well, each volume gets better than the previous one at this point.
Can't wait to read volume 8 again. Probably in a few days.
Recently re-read the entire series, prompted (of course) by the Netflix adaptation. How immense the scope of this is, and yet the core storyline is actually pretty tight. Would recommend to anyone (though you've probably read it already, right?)
I think this is my favourite of them so far. Beautifully written, and the art is incredible.
