It's a collection of stuff outside the original series. It includes Endless Nights, Midnight Theatre, and both the novella and graphic novel form of Dream Hunters.

I know people would probably say that it's worth picking up, but how do they compare to the previous volumes?

Sandman got me into comics.I will try and get these when they come out.

I really love Endless Nights and Dream Hunters, particularly Endless Nights. I haven't read Midnight Theatre. If you haven't read the first two, it's worth picking up for sure. I own them in their original forms and can't justify vol 5 right now. The absolute books are gorgeous though. I own the first two volumes but haven't been able to justify picking up the rest just yet.

Wasn't a fan of American Gods, but I've been planning to try other Gaiman works. I guess now would be a good time to start. Are there any bigger Sandman compilations out there or are the 10-volume books all there is?

Enter Sandman.

There's a 4 volume Absolute series (or 5 volume including some extra stuff - see my conversation with Totakeke). The first one:

Glad it's Gaiman. I couldn't stomach the Sandman side stories written by other people

 

[Anticitizen One]

Are the Absolute Sandman books worth buying? I have the first 6 trade paperbacks (the original paperbacks not the recolored versions)

You mean stuff like Books of Magic or what? Or Lucifer, or that Jill Thompson manga?

Exactly. No writer is a sacred cow. Not even Gaiman.

I'm so fucking excited that Williams is drawing this. Single best artist working in mainstream comics, hands down. I'd frame just about any of his Batwoman splash pages on my wall.
