description: In 1988, best-selling author Neil Gaiman first revealed the shadowy places where personal demons bleed into the realms of superheroes &amp; ancient gods. His vehicle was ''The Sandman'' -- the comics series that broke new ground in the medium &amp; beyond. In 1991 it was the first, &amp; only, comic book to receive the World Fantasy Award. The tales that this master storyteller spins for his haunting -- &amp; haunted protagonist wield immense power in both the land of dreams &amp; in the waking world. Gaiman &amp; a team of artists intermingled a dazzling array of narrative &amp; artistic styles to create a stunning tableau. Here, Kwitney richly illus. the comic's history. Includes illustrations never before published, behind-the-scenes stories, &amp; quotes from Gaiman himself.
