Neil Gaiman - Sandman: A Game of You, Fables & Reflections, Brief Lives, World's End, etc

[the 'etc' being The Kindly Ones & The Wake]

Yep, this is still quite magnificent. A second time through the whole lot, now, this time in sequence and reasonably carefully, and still I don't feel as if I've come close to plumbing all of its depths. Perhaps, once one begins to take them seriously, this is a particular prerogative of graphic novels, with their myriad textual and visual (to name just two) dimensions and possibilities.

This time round: 1-4.

Last time: [5]&[6], [7], [8], [9], [10].
