What do you think of Sandman(Graphic Novel)?
I've recently been reading a few Neil Gaiman books, and am enjoying them. I've heard that his graphic novel Sandman(Not one of Spiderman's enemies, but an original DC graphic novel) is quite good, and was what catapulted him to fame years ago. I'll like to know what you Sandman readers out there think, before I go out and get them.
Also, is there anyone who knows where I can get them in Singapore? According to their website Kinokuniya sells them for abour $20(the compiled ones), but I'm wondering if there are other stores out there that stock them, and of they sell them cheaper.

I loved the Sandman series. It was great story-telling, great characters, and the art work was beautiful, especially the covers.
I didn't start reading it until episode 21, and I have to admit, if I had been reading at the beginning, the first seven installments would not have grabbed my attention: they are more horrific and not as interesting as the later episodes. Buy the compilations and read the whole series before you decide whether you'd like to collect the originals--I think the individual comic books are probably pretty expensive by now.
When I saw "Stardust" this weekend, I was thinking of how much I wish they'd make "Sandman" into a movie, or series of movies. I'd love to see them!

I read Sandman a few years ago - thought it was very good, but in order to appreciate the series better, you will need to know more about the background and the context of the characters. I also enjoy the graphics of the comics, but thought it is secondary to the storyline itself.
