The Sandman: The Dream Hunters
Oh my gosh!!!! This book is sooooo amazing, awesome, cool, superb, exquisite, ect. ect. ect.!
Written by Neil Gaiman (gotta love him) and illustrated by Yoshitaka Amano (nothing needs to be said about him, words do not fit his genius, yes, he Is the Vampire Hunter D illustrator for the novels), this graphic novel is brilliance.
My heart was weeping for the art work, every page a vibrant splendor of soul.
The King of All Night's Dreaming could be Jareth the Goblin King in looks, just make it black hair and give him a raven for an owl. Gorgeous.
One last thing, second to last page (pic of King of All Night's Dreaming and raven)I was reading and feeling my heart crying and suddenly "Fields of Gold" by Sting started resounding in my head. Specifically, the lines: "I don't make promises lightly/and there are some that I have broken/but I promise you that in the days still left/we'll walk in fields of gold." Significant? For some reason it seems so (love the song, beautiful song). Well, that's all for now. Gonna try to pick up some manga. Cheers.
