One of my favourite books.....

I have been meandering through 'The Absolute Death' - A bound compilation of the character of 'Death' from Neil Gaiman's 'The Sandman' series of Graphic novels. I adore this book - I know it may seem a little odd to some - but the art work is amazing! In Gaiman's world, Death is the older sister of The Sandman. The idea of Death personified as a somewhat cheerful little goth-girl seems perfectly reasonable to me!

Here are some of my favourite large pieces from the book.......
