Absolute Sandman Volume with Slipcase

I love looking at people's bookshelves and see what they've got. So today, I did a search for Absolute Sandman on Flickr. All pictures shown in this entry are from Flickr and will link back to their respective owners.

Absolute Sandman is actually a 4-volume hardcover compilation of all the Sandman issues. It comes with a slipcase. You can read more about Sandman and its history on Wikipedia.

Parka,
Thanks for putting together such beautiful and useful blog!
Gailman´s Sandman is a MUST. Try at least the first volume of this re-issue.
Best Regards,

I came across your blog recently and have enjoyed your reviews. Sandman is a great series, fully worth reading, and Absolute Sandman is a work of art as a compilation, even apart from the original Sandman content. In volume 1, especially, the recoloring in the Absolute edition versus the earlier printings is astounding.
