It must be the later issues of Sandman that got really good. Even Neil Gaiman admits that he was just starting to get the storytelling figured out towards the end of the issues represented here. I found a few entertaining bits here and there, but was alternately confused or uninterested at other times. I'll have to try another volume, though. (  ) zot79 | Aug 20, 2023 |  The script is decent but the art is pretty terrible. You get used to it because that's most of the series but, well. ( ) AnonR | Aug 5, 2023 | This has been on my to-read list for quite a while now, and I've finally got around to it. Since this is the first volume, I'm imagining this is the less-polished version, but I can definitely see it's brimming with ideas. Suitably freaky when it needs to be. I can see why it's considered a classic, definitely. (  ) finlaaaay | Aug 1, 2023 | Graphic novels and comics: I get them now. Before this, their pictures were vaguely interesting but I often didn't even look at them, I was just reading the text and speech bubbles to get the story the fastest way I could. I wanted the story fast (I was a glutton for stories). But when I merely glanced at, or even skipped, the pictures, it felt like I was missing out on something.... because I was. And then this book. This book. When I saw the cover page of "Sleep of the Just" I gasped out loud. The pictures of Morpheus and Alex in the tower, Morpheus riding peoples' dreams, and so many more, they gave as much power to the story as the words. And those words, that story - I am in awe. (  ) blueskygreentrees | Jul 30, 2023 | L’anonimo Robert Smith (The Cure) - (ebbene si’, anonimo: si e’ mai visto un nome ed un cognome piu’ comuni?) finisce tra i tentacoli (chtulhuiani) del Gaiman che gli canta la sua Lullaby rinchiuso (Close to me) nel solito armadio onirico. Poi Gaiman (stonando le note) dedica a Robert questa canzone: I don't care if Monday's blue Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too Thursday I don't care about you It's Friday I'm in love. Il naso di David Bowie a pagina 140 sulla faccia di Lucifero… e poi immaginarsi simili a Helden (just for one day) ed il resto degli altri giorni all’inferno. Helden preferibile a Heroes per le terribili e mefistofeliche assonanze linguistiche (Helden e Hell). Ma, alla fine, David finisce a rilassarsi in Australia (pagina 296). Alcuni brani: Sandman e’ il personaggio che sta tra la veglia e il sonno, in quella zona intermedia della coscienza in cui si comincia ad abbandonare la realta’ ma il sogno e’ fatto ancora di immagini sfumate, di brevi apparizioni.(p. 6) Sognate! I sogni plasmano il mondo. I sogni ricreano Il mondo. Ogni notte. (p. 53) Quando l’ultimo essere morira’, il mio incarico sara’ giunto al termine. Mettero’ le sedie sui tavoli, spegnero’ le luci e chiudero’ a chiave l’universo prima di andarmene. (p. 104) (e speriamo che spazzi almeno sotto la tavola… ci sono sempre briciole che cadono la’ sotto…) Destino fa odore di polvere e di bibliote- che notturne. Non lascia impronte. Non proietta l’ombra. (p. 118) C’e’ un vento che soffia tra i mondi. un vento freddo. Sibila in silenzio passando nei vuoti, il vento del nulla, viaggiando da un non-luogo a un non-luogo, attraverso storie mai create.

HTML: NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author Neil Gaiman's transcendent series SANDMAN is often hailed as the definitive Vertigo title and one of the finest achievements in graphic storytelling. Gaiman created an unforgettable tale of the forces that existbeyond life and death by weaving ancient mythology, folklore and fairy tales with his own distinct narrative vision. In PRELUDES & NOCTURNES, an occultist attempting to capture Death to bargain for eternal life traps her younger brother Dreaminstead. After his seventy-year imprisonment and eventual escape, Dream, also known as Morpheus, goes on a quest for his lost objects of power. On his arduous journey Morpheus encounters Lucifer, John Constantine, and an all-powerful madman. Thisbook also includes the story "The Sound of Her Wings," which introduces us to the pragmatic and perky goth girl Death. Collects issues #1-8. .Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
