Críticas

"He is among the few comics writers that critics point to as having transcended the genre and created something new and vital." "Like Tolkien, George MacDonald, John Crowley, or LeGuin, Gaiman knows that the "maturity" of a fantasy is little more than a measure of its depths... For all its distant shimmerings, Sandman has real substance. Its reveries seem strangely familiar -- and not just because Morpheus and his carefree sister Death would fit right in on St. Mark's Place." "Neil Gaiman is, simply put, a treasure house of story, and we are lucky to have him in any medium. His fecundity, coupled with the overall quality of his work, is both wonderful and a little intimidating... this is challenging stuff... sophisticated storytelling on a level practiced by Raymond Carver, Joyce Carol Oates, or [and perhaps this is closer to the mark] John Fowles." -- Stephen King "Mr. Gaiman is one of those adventurous creators who sees no reason why his tales shouldn't embrace slapstick comedy, mystical musings and the grimmest collection of serial killers this side of death row... If the sheer profusion of these inventions and the apt absurdity of some of the juxtapositions puts you in mind of one of your more heated dreams, then surely that's what Mr. Gaiman intends." -- Clive Barker
