Another nice little story that brings us closer to Death... :D ( ) Reread 8/14. Definitely the ultimate feel-good comic about life and mortality. The panel about halfway through where Death feels Hazel's baby kick may be one of the most beautiful and understated comic panels of all time. But for whatever reason, Tori Amos's introduction (written way back in the early nineties) is actually my favorite part of this book. It sums up my life philosophy (or at least the one to which I aspire). You can read it here. And yes, I am wearing my ankh today. :) If you are a fan of the "Sandman" series, you should DEFINITELY pick up this book. If you are not a fan of the "Sandman" series, then you can enjoy this book because the story is great and it doesn't REALLY revolve around the "Sandman" storyline, but you'll miss a lot of detail and a few things might confuse you. For fans, the story is full of, as per usual "Sandman" style, character cameos and references to events and a somewhat similar storyline. We get to learn more about Death as a person. We meet a new character - Sexton, who's actually quite interesting. The messages in the story are great and the adventure is very enjoyable. The art is also very pretty. I liked the story and it featured really good art. All in all, this is a great, short comic.
Looking back at a modern classic, Death: The High Cost of Living maintains its quiet charm over a decade after its publication. Onderdeel van de reeks(en)The Sandman (Death: The High Cost of Living collected 1-3) Onderdeel van de uitgeversreeks(en)
From the pages of Neil Gaiman's Sandman comes the young, pale, perky, and genuinely likable Death. One day in every century, Death walks the Earth to better understand those to whom she will be the final visitor. Today is that day. As a young mortal girl named Didi, Death befriends a teenager and helps a 250-year old homeless woman find her missing heart. What follows is a sincere musing on love, life and (of course) death.
