Abstract
The first and only comic book to receive the World Fantasy Award, The Sandman continues to break new ground in the comic book medium and beyond. Author Alisa Kwitney explores its beginnings and chronicles the comic’s emergence as a unique and undeniable force in the literary world. Richly illustrated, this history shows how Gaiman and The Sandman’s gifted artists, such as Dave McKean and Yoshitaka Amano, create a haunting (and haunted) main character who wields immense power. With illustrations never before published, behind-the-scenes stories, handwritten notes, and interviews with Gaiman himself, this volume is a true testament to the dream king and his creator.

Notes
Basically, lots of illustrations printed elsewhere, and few resuming sentences for each one of the ten volumes of Sandman. Not much to find for scholars.
