| 1. The Sandman Vol. 1: Preludes and Nocturnes | 
|
By: Neil Gaiman Publisher: Vertigo December 07, 1993
Gaiman's Sandman series is widely considered one of the finest achievements in the graphic novel medium, but does it live up to all the hype? In this opening volume, a mortal who intends to capture Death accidentally snags her sibling Dream instead and winds up keeping him prisoner for decades. Finally escaping, Dream sets about reclaiming his lost talismans so he can rebuild his kingdom, which has... more

| 3. One Man's Wilderness: An Alaskan Odyssey | 
|
By: Sam Kieth, Richard Proenneke Publisher: Alaska Northwest Books 1973-06
I loved traveling in Alaska. I love the mountains and everything else. One Man's Wilderness took me right there with him as he chiseled the logs for his log cabin and picked blueberries for his pancake syrup. Dick describes his daily adventures in a calm, matter of fact way and made me want more. Yes, the book is simple, but, so the premise and plot. Just survive wildness and the brutal cold. And... more

| 4. The Maxx - Volume 2 | 
|
By: Sam Kieth, William Messner-Loebs Publisher: Wildstorm April 01, 2004
Volume two of Sam Kieth and Bill Messner-Loebs' singularly surreal exploration of sanity, identity and trauma, "The Maxx" finds our titular anti-hero and his obsession, Julie Winters, wandering in an 'outback' - but is it real or are they now merely experiencing the 'folie a deux'? You'll have your answers (and more questions) by the end of the volume.
Along the way you'll discover why... more

| 6. Maxx, The: Volume 5 | 
|
By: Sam Kieth Publisher: Wildstorm October 01, 2005
Volume five of Sam Kieth's spectacularly surreal "The Maxx" draws the adventures of his richly drawn cast of characters to a final, irrevocable end. Its really impossible to go into too much detail without ruining the twists and turns of the plot, suffice it to say that it includes the reappearance of 'Glorie' (a character from the earlier volumes), draws upon the experiences of an adolescent called... more

| 7. Maxx, The - Volume 4 (Maxx (Wildstorm/DC Comics)) | 
|
By: Sam Kieth Publisher: Wildstorm March 01, 2005
Volume four of "The Maxx" rings radical changes with the departure of Bill Messner-Loebs, a chronological shift ten years into the future and the almost total absence of "The Maxx" and Julie for the bulk of the first half of the book.
Its 2005 - not our 2005, but 2005 as Sam Kieth extrapolated it in 1995 - "The Maxx" and Julie have been consigned to the distant past and Sara is living... more

| 8. Maxx, The: Volume 3 (Maxx (Wildstorm/DC Comics)) | 
|
By: Sam Kieth Publisher: Wildstorm August 01, 2004
I unfortunately waited a couple years to pick up 3 and 4 after reading 1 and 2, so I was left hanging for quite some time. A great continuation of the story. It picks up a while after 2, and tries to answer some of the questions you feel after 2. Some new denizens of the Outback are shown and our old friend Mr. Gone is back... more

| 10. The Maxx, Volume 6 (Maxx (Wildstorm/DC Comics)) | 
|
By: Sam Kieth Publisher: Wildstorm February 01, 2006
So, with the title I used I must sound quite disappointed - and in some ways I was. The characters, stories and even the style of this book is so vastly different from the previous Maxx editions that calling this volume 6 amounts to outright false advertising. That being said, I found that I did enjoy the book anyway. While the contents are perhaps closer to Ghost World than the Maxx series... more
