Sandman

Neil Gaiman is a fantastic author that uses graphic novels to entertain and educate.  Reading the Sandman was very easy.  It was not a story in which I found boring, and didn't have to force myself to read finish it.  This graphic novel reminds me of the comics I have buried in my garage.  This style of writing and illustrations reminds me off older comics from earlier generations.  The illustrations are very creative and capture the readers attention very easily.  I found that the illustrations gave the story a much more creepy feeling.  They act as a way helping show the reader how they are supposed to read the novel. I enjoyed this piece of the reading and don't mind reading the rest at all.  In fact, I actually want to read more of this novel and possibly more by the author.  Graphic novels are great pieces to read.  They capture your attention and imagination, and allow the readers ample information to learn from.  I enjoy graphic novels and believe that they have great potential to offer valuable information to who ever is reading them, no matter the age or education level.

  1. Hey,

    I also agree that this reading was both easy and enjoyable, I too would like to read the rest of the graphic novel. In addition, like your stance on value of graphic novels, I also feel like they have potential for the imagination.
