A Day in the Death...

Date of Review:  Oct 15, 2000
Review: I have an uncanny knack, or curse rather, for stumbling upon the best of something: the best of a genre, the best team, the best production, the best food. The first time I watched a ballet (live), I had tickets to the Bolshoi Ballet Company...

The High Cost of Bad Comics

Date of Review:  May 5, 2002
The Bottom Line: Only for die hard fans who've accepted bad Sandman art.
Review: In a nutshell, Death: The High Cost of Living is slightly better than the average "don?t kill yourself" didactic with bad art and truly awful coloring.

Now for the longer explanation.

High Cost of Living came out at the peak of...

You Mean Death Doesn't Look Like Brad Pitt?

Date of Review:  Aug 7, 2001
The Bottom Line: Gaiman's writing is always a pleasure, especially for such a great character.
Review: 'One day in every century Death takes on mortal flesh, better to comprehend what the lives she takes must feel like, to taste the bitter tang of mortality: and this is the price she must pay for being the divider of the living from all that has gone...

Death: The High Cost of Living, by Neil Gaiman

Date of Review:  Feb 12, 2003
The Bottom Line: Interesting to see Death outside the confines of a Sandman story.
Review: Listen: "One day in every century Death takes on mortal flesh, better to comprehend what the lives she takes must feel like, to taste the bitter tang of mortality: and this is the price she must pay for being the divider of the living from all that...

My first foray into Sandman... & it won't be my last!

Date of Review:  Feb 10, 2000
Review: I started reading Neil Gaiman novels because I fell in with Tori Amos-loving crowd, and the two are friends. After tackling novels and short stories, I decided to purchase _Death : The High Cost of Living_ from the Science Fiction Book Club. I...

Sandman Spinoffs For Goths 101

Date of Review:  Jan 11, 2000
Review: Given that one of my favorite monikers on the Internet is Delirium, I hope you've figured out by now that I'm a bit of a Sandman fan. Well, a bit of a Gaiman fan in general.

Death used to be my favorite character, and is what got me into...

Short yet terrific

Date of Review:  Jun 19, 2000
Review: For someone who lives in Portugal, comics are very hard to get. And you know that if you miss 3 issues of, say, ?The Uncanny X-Men?, you're bound to be completley lost (and things most probably have gotten worse). Thank Jar Jar for stand alone...

True modern literature...

Date of Review:  Jun 1, 2001
The Bottom Line: This will be enjoyed by almost anyone. The art and story are great. A modern work of literature, far more than just a simple comic book.
Review: Background: I recently got back into Neil Gaiman's excellent comic book series, the Sandman by buying the Sandman: Book of Dreams at my local Media Play for $0.99. Don't ask me what they were thinking, it was even in hardcover. But that is neither...

Read Death

Date of Review:  Jan 26, 2001
The Bottom Line: Incredible comic that brings a whole new spin on Death
Review: Death is the story of...death.
A boy wants to kill himself. He finds no reason to live (and for good reason. You'll see as you read his suicide note) He meets up with the personification of death who turns out to be a high-spirited teenage...
