The Absolute Sandman: Volume One
Absolute Sandman collects the first volume Neil Gaiman's classic Sandman series.
THE SANDMAN, written by New York Times bestselling author Neil
Gaiman, was the most acclaimed comic book title of the 1990s. A
rich blend of modern myth and dark fantasy in which contemporary
fiction, historical drama and legend are seamlessly interwoven, THE
SANDMAN is also widely considered one of the most original and
artistically ambitious series of the modern age. By the time it
concluded in 1996, it had made significant contributions to the
artistic maturity of comic books and become a pop culture
phenomenon in its own right.
Now, DC Comics is proud to present this comics classic in an
all-new Absolute Edition format. The first of four beautifully
designed slipcased volumes, THE ABSOLUTE SANDMAN VOL. 1 collects
issues 1-20 of The Sandman and features completely new coloring,
approved by the author, on the first 18 issues, as well as a host
of never-before-seen extra material, including the complete
original Sandman Proposal, a gallery of character designs from
Gaiman and the artists who originated the look of the Sandman, and
the original script to the World Fantasy Award-winning THE SANDMAN
#19, "A Midsummer Night’s Dream," together with reproductions of
the issue’s original pencils by Charles Vess. Also included are a
new introduction by DC’s president Paul Levitz and a new afterword
by Gaiman.
