“Fear of Falling”

About this Collection

This oversized hardcover collects issues #40–56 of Neil Gaiman's landmark series, along with the story 'The Song of Orpheus' from Winter's Edge #1. It includes the complete 'Brief Lives' and 'Worlds' End' story arcs, plus extensive bonus material such as the original script and sketches for 'Brief Lives' and a gallery of variant covers. The volume also features an introduction by author Harlan Ellison and a new afterword by Gaiman, making it a definitive edition for collectors of the series.

In "Fear of Falling," the spotlight turns to the creators who shaped The Sandman’s legacy, with intimate biographies of artists and writers like Dave McKean, Bryan Talbot, and Mark Buckingham. Presented in a striking, hand-crafted format with typeset lettering and a cover by McKean that’s as haunting as it is beautiful, this issue offers a rare, personal glimpse into the minds behind the mythos.
