Neil Gaiman's seminal series, THE SANDMAN, celebrates its 30th anniversary with an all-new edition of THE SANDMAN VOL. 1: PRELUDES & NOCTURNES! New York Times best-selling author Neil Gaiman's transcendent series THE 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 exist beyond 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 Dream instead. After his 70 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. This book also includes the story "The Sound of Her Wings," which introduces us to the pragmatic and perky goth girl Death. Collects THE SANDMAN #1-8.
Sandman Séria
Sandman je kultová séria komiksov, ktorá sleduje Morfea, pána snov, a jeho interakcie s ľuďmi a inými nadprirodzenými bytosťami. Príbeh sa zaoberá témami snov, reality a moci, pričom sa prelínajú rôzne žánre a štýly. Morfeus sa snaží obnoviť poriadok vo svojom kráľovstve, zatiaľ čo sa vyrovnáva s následkami svojich predchádzajúcich rozhodnutí. Je to fascinujúci pohľad na psychológiu a mytológiu.
