Title: Well worth your hard-earned cash!
Review: Frankly, I've thought that most of the "Absolute" editions were overpriced and a little too self-aggrandizing. Sometimes a good comic book is just a good comic book. I think that's enough. It doesn't have to be a seminal moment in the history of Western literature.But "The Absolute Sandman" is a little different. The art seems to be clearer (maybe it's just larger) and the coloring has been "sweetened" or maybe "fine-tuned" would be a better term. The book doesn't look like it has been re-drawn; it looks like the same art, only better.The Special Features are also quite good, showing the history of the development of Sandman and the genesis of the "Midsummer Night's Dream" Story.This book is worth every penny.If you are looking for a Christmas gift for the comic-book geek in your life (whether he/ she is into superheroes or art comics) this is the perfect gift. [It is for "Mature" Readers, though]
