Wow. That was creepy. ( )

This is the first issue of Sandman followed by ads for a bunch of other graphic novel collections. The story, c'mon! It's Gaiman. It's classic. The problem I have is with the Kindle format. Each page requires a double tap to embiggen each cell. Meh. ( )

This is an entertaining comic with excellent artwork. Still, it can't compare with the experience of reading a really good novel. The story, necessarily given the plot, takes place over a long period of time, and as such lacks the claustrophobic feeling that is a plus to so many horror stories. ( )

I don't have a lot to say about this. I read only the first issue because I found a Kindle edition of it for free. I was unimpressed and confused. I think the whole graphic novel thing is just a little outside of my range of ability. I don't want to necessarily say that I'll never come back and read the rest of this series, but I'm certainly done for now. Although I originally rated this lowly, I think the problems I experienced with this story were my fault, not the novel's, and so I've adjusted the score to reflect the quality of the novel itself, not my experience.
