What's /Co/'s opinion on the sandman ? Just torrented it, bretty gud so far
>>
my mom is a big comic-head and recommended i read it when i was like 12.

she had forgotten about the bit with the guy in the diner and all of the worldwide psycho atrocities.
thats heavy shit for a kid and its kind of spooked me out of reading any more of it. it just felt too awful.

death is cute.
>>
Of what I've read, it's very good.

I want to fuck Death of the Endless.
>>
It's very good. Seminal.
>>
It's a classic. A critically lauded masterwork. Ya, it's pretty good.

Didn't understand the first story arc
Third/Fourth arc seems pointless other than the introduction of the Endless.
World's end was good but again, I don't see the point of it in the overall story
>>
Its okay, I think its really fucking overrated but its not terrible or anything
>>

It's a weird case in which the main character is an insufferable edgy Mary Sue but it still works and is pretty good.
>>
>>83129294
Most of /co/ hasn't read it and doesn't talk about it, so you're safe to assume it's great.
>>
>>83129294
It's one of the best comics from the big two I've ever read and thanks to that I'll never full enjoy anything from DC and Marvel again.
>>
>>83129294
It's one of the few comics about an almighty character that is good, death is a cutie, and Lucifer is awesome
>>
Emperor Norton best story

I get this, BUT the stories are still great. AND a lot of them make more sense when you reread it and get the whole picture.
>>
>>83129294
its excellent

and unlike many series, it actually gets better near the end

maybe if you arent familiar with DC you won't enjoy as it much; it throws MANY in-universe references and bits around while staying mostly out of the usual DCU business

Dream was Gaiman's selfinsert

of course he would be mary-sueish
>>
I had read some a long time ago when i was in high school, it didn't really stick in my memory but it was enjoyable. One of my professors worked on it, so I read a bit more of what I could find. Really neat stuff.

The Hall family stuff is a bit of a clusterfuck, though that's not solely Gaiman's fault

My favourite comic of all time. It's just really well written, even if the arts slacks off a few times.

>Mary Sue
>Was so flawed, he just upped and killed himself because of it
>>
So, how long till DC starts to shamelessly mine Sandman to use it for shitty superhero events and crossovers?
>>
>>83129294
We don't discuss it much here because it's a classic and pretty much universally acclaimed so yeah, keep reading. This is good stuff. Storytelling at its best.

Love it, one of my favourites. Cried like a little bitch at the end
