Jill Thompson's Sandman
Ölüm: Ölümün Kapısında
Cehennemden çıkma bir parti � hem de Ölüm'ün Kapısında.
Herkesin favori Gotik kızı, Ölüm, kız kardeşleri Hezeyan ve Keder ölüler için çılgın bir parti düzenleyince kendi diyarında kalacak yer bulamıyordu neredeyse. Bütün bunlar ise, Lucifer Sabahyıldızı tahtından ayrılıp Cehennemin anahtarını Ölüm'ün kardeşine, Sandman'e verdiğinde başlamıştı. Rüya ne yapacağına karar vermek için düşünüp taşınırken Cehennemin günahkâr sakinleri özgür kalmışlardı. Ölüm'ün şansına, hiçbiri nereye gideceğini bilemeyip onun dairesinde soluğu almıştı. Günü kurtarmak da tabii ki yine Ölüm'e kalacaktı.
Ankhın gücü galip gelecek mi?

This is the reason I don't read a lot of manga.
I'm not saying that all manga is cringy (because I don't read enough of it to know) but this book right here is an example of why I mostly avoid it. And I don't even know if this is manga or just mangaesque.
Everyone here is seemingly having childish temper tantrums or crying big tears or having some other overblown emotional outburst. It's like having to watch a particularly badly acted play.
Plus, most of the women look like they are either 7 years old or a complete wet dream. I find that somewhat off-putting but I know that it's just the style, so whatever.
And to be fair, no one is overly sexualized in this one at all.
So the gist is that this is what Death, Despair, and Delirium were all doing during Sandman's Season of Mists. You know, the one when Lucifer decides to quit and hands the keys of Hell over to Dream?
It's a great arc, if you haven't read it yet.
Not this, the original.
This wasn't my jam.
No disrespect if you liked it, but it didn't hit with me in any way.

A trip down memory lane for me, I was smiling from ear to ear reading Death introduction it made me remember a lot of Great stories.
The manga drawing style is amazing and impeccable i love it, I also loved the parts of the story that actually happened in the sandman.
Other than that i hated all the new stories told they were nearly a complete waste of time except maybe the part about Edgar Alan Poe was great, if she didn't drive despair so out of character that i hated her as well.
Its troubling seeing all these nice people in hell whoever judged them to go there, should be trialed instead...
The world of sandman is my all time favorite, and i will make frequent trips to this world from now on, since i have so many of its graphic novels that i didn't read yet.

Why did this have to be done? Jill Thompson could have made perfectly fine goofy big-eyed imitation-manga about whatever, and the parts of this that she wrote from scratch are pretty good for morbid children (I like the slapstick bit about gruesome things happening to a ghost who never complains). But trying to remake Neil Gaiman's
from another character's point of view, and dropping in huge chunks of the original dialogue, doesn't work at all. Not only is it a very weird style contrast, it literally makes no sense a lot of the time because of the way Thompson rushes through it to get to the jokes, and also because in the original book Gaiman was counting on people having already read the previous books. His prose was already a little clunky and flowery sometimes, but Thompson makes it worse by treating it like Shakespeare - in the kind of lousy Shakespeare production where they don't know how to make the meaning clear through action, but they have to say all the words, so you get some goofy stage business over a soundtrack of classy-sounding gibberish. Sure I'm a snob, but I just don't get how this is supposed to be more fun for a kid than something that isn't a cutesified adaptation. I keep meaning to check out Thompson's
, which looks much cooler than this.

Kurgusu, senaryosu ile ilgili sıkıntım var. Birkaç yerde cümle yapısında, kelime yazımında hata var diye düşündüm ama orijinal metinde de öyle olabilir. Baskısı güzel ve bir yan Sandman öyküsünü böyle okumak hoşuma gitti. Emek verenleri tebrik ediyorum. Dediğim gibi kurgusal, orjinalindeki metinde, akışta sorun olduğunu düşünüyorum.

Gaiman for the mentally challenged�
I don’t know what possessed Jill Thompson to recast A Season of Mists as manga dumbassery, but she did, and that can’t be undone.
And I don’t know what possessed me to read it, or at least to continue reading it after discovering by page 3 just how much this sucks on every single level, but I did. I confess I was curious, having just finished a reread of Season of Mists and also having recently finished watching the Netflix series Dead Boys Detective Agency. I wondered how the author would rework this incredible section of the Sandman storyline where Lucifer Morningstar leaves the key of Hell to Morpheus, as seen through the perspective of Death here, and especially how Edmund and Charles would come off in this retelling. And, as further defense of my waste of the past couple of hours of my life, I’d like to say that Neil Gaiman’s Death of the Endless is just about my favorite character of all time, no matter how sophomoric that might make me sound. But I’m not sophomoric enough to be able to appreciate this dreck by Thompson because it’s just terribad, and I don’t understand why it was written or who the intended audience is, managing simultaneously to debase the original material so much that any fan of Gaiman’s will feel like puking, while still zooming way over the heads of any manga morons who might stumble across it.
I feel like someone should go to jail for the whole stupid thing. I dunno what the charges would be but maybe something like criminal malfeasance in the willful destruction of intellectual and artistic property of outstanding universal value to humanity? Just awful.

I never would have picked this up on my own, manga isn't my thing, but it was a gift and it stars my favorite personification of Death, so I jumped in.
Told alongside Dream's journey into the empty hell, the sisters Death, Delerium and Despair throw a party for the misplaced damned souls. A slight story, but it was a lot of fun. Death and Delerium fit the anime tone perfectly, while Despair manages quite surprisingly to assimilate to the style as well (AND have a good time? Everyone loves a good party I guess!).
My two biggest trepidations were for naught, the book was formatted for US audiences (I loathe reading the "backwards" mangas) and the art was lots better than I feared. Though it's hard to go wrong with Gaiman's bestest goth girl!

I loved this. It's a little side story during Sandman Vol 4 where we get a peak into what Death, Despair and Delirium was doing while Dream figured out who got the key to hell. The art is cute and Dream is giving really big dramatic theater kid energy which I love. I also LOVED Delirium and Despair in this. LOVE this.

I assume this Jill Thompson variant on material found within Neil Gaiman's epic Sandman saga was created as a handy entry point for reluctant readers. I further assume that it is capable of doing exactly that. As someone who (embarrassingly recently) has read Sandman itself, I found the material familiar and pleasant. As far as someone who hasn't, I can't really begin to say. Would I've been able to grasp what made Sandman so special, back in 2003, when At Death's Door was originally published? Thompson's take is particularly playful. Since it features Death as the lead character, whom Gaiman himself depicted as surprisingly engaging, I think anyone who did use it as an entry point would eventually figure out they weren't bamboozled. I'm still surprised that Death hasn't gone on to a bigger legacy in the comics. I also think that problem of adapting Sandman into a movie (series) could be solved by doing it a little like this.
So maybe that answers my question, about how well At Death's Door serves as an entry point. Probably pretty well.

I usually love anything having to do with the Endless, but this left me cold. If you like anime, this may be your thing, but the anime style of this story is exactly what put me off. Gaiman himself wrote the same story, but in much fuller (and easier to follow) form.

Bu kitabı o kadar eskiden okumuştum ki içinden 2 Temmuz 2005 tarihli bir Burger King fişi çıktı. Fish Royale 6.95, Chicken Royale 6.95. Sanırım YTL'ye yeni geçtiğimiz dönem çünkü açıklamalı olarak altında milyonlu tutar da var. Üşenmedim baktım o gün dolar 1.34 TL imiş =/
Neyse kitaba gelecek olursak hem 11 ciltlik Sandman külliyatından bildiğim bir hikaye olması nedeniyle hem de artık Sandman evreninden ve karakterlerinden biraz sıkıldığımdan mütevellit hikayeden çok hoşlanmadım. Ancak çizgileri, mangavari gözler ve ifadelerin de çok hoşuma gittiğini itiraf etmeliyim.
Herkese keyifli okumalar!

The Sandman fans, ever wondered how Death dealt with the repercussions of Lucifer Morningstar’s abduction of Hell’s throne in Season of Mists? Wonder no longer, because Jill Thompson—the artist responsible for reducing a large percentage of TSM fans into uncontrollable geeks wanting to squish little Dream and Death from A Parliament of Rooks—provided all the answers to in her manga-style Death-centric book: At Death’s Door.
Backtrack: in the wake of his resignation in Season of Mists, Lucifer warded off the dead that have been residing in Hell after their time on earth. They are given the freedom to go wherever they want, just not in the infernal realm of the Morningstar. This gave Death a gargantuan dilemma, as the dead wandered back to the lands of the living and—surprise, surprise!—wreak havoc there. With the help of her sisters Delirium and Despair, Death attempts to put everything under control while waiting for Dream to put a permanent halt to all of this mayhem.
As expected from Thompson, this is quite a delightful spin-off of the acclaimed graphic novel series. The characters were not portrayed as the big-headed, wee-bodied caricatures reminiscent of DC characters Sugar and Spike as in her The Little Endless Storybook; instead, they were doodled into the patented Japanese comics-style. The overall feel reminded me of many “Magical Girl� mainstream animes because seriously, the “By the power of the ankh, come to me!� tagline-stance combo just screams “In the name of the moon, I’ll punish you!� from Sailormoon. Hilarious.
The story didn’t stray so much from the original series� fourth tome, and I liked how Thompson creatively pushed a few jigsaw puzzle pieces into the big picture to make the whole thing work. There were re-imagined scenes from Season of Mists, and it’s amazing how Thompson easily “cartoonized� them, complete with the overly expressive and exaggerated atmosphere. Sure, there were parts that were definitely out of character, but being a “chibi�-style non-serious manga, I think it’s forgivable. Plus points for the uproarious moments, especially the cameo role of Edgar Allan Poe (crushing on Despair, to boot).
Giving this three stars.

You guys ...I don't even know. Like ...it's not good ...but it's almost so bad that it BECOMES good. I'm really stuck between 2 and 3 stars for this but I think I'm gonna leave it bumped up to 3 just because I somehow did have a pretty good time laughing at how bizarre the entire situation is.
Basically it's just what Death was doing while Dream was trying to figure out who to give hell to in Sandman. Oh yeah and it's straight up manga. I mean I was expecting it to be kind of stylized from the cover but it's just ...literally Sandman manga. Baffling. Anyway it's not a totally awful concept in and of itself but unfortunately about half the page space is just spent rehashing things that directly happened in the main comic book and it was definitely done better the first time around. I think it would be safe to assume that anyone reading this has already read Sandman and doesn't need an in depth recap.
Anyway, here's some random screencaps to show you just how ridiculous this is because I honestly can't do it justice:
But if there's one thing I live for it's people telling Dream what a fuckwad he is so at least there's that:

Jill Thompson telling a side story set in the corners of Sandman: Season of Mists sounded great! Unfortunately, it doesn't come off.
Part of the problem is that what seems like fully half the book is devoted to retelling scenes from Gaiman's original story, with plots and dialogue reproduced entirely verbatim - which makes the experience kind of tedious if you've read the original at all recently, since you want the new story to Just Get On With It! Sadly, the original material here is also pretty lackluster, as there's not much story at all, with very little narrative arc to speak of, and not much actually at stake. Regrettably, the lightness inherent in Thompson's manga-styled art - which would have been an interesting choice in a different project - only serves to reinforce just how "fluff" this story actually is.
It's a shame, as Jill Thompson is a fantastic artist. But this seems like a story whose plot really needed to be reconceived from the very first draft.

A chance encounter with a book at the library while looking for something else often leads to a pleasurable time. This rules!
A manga re-interpretation of Neil Gaiman's Sandman, the mixture of cute with the dark, sometimes gruesome storyline of that series is very neat.
This story coincides with Dream's attempt to rescue Nada from Hell, only to find Lucifer has emptied the realm, is ready to resign, and hands Dream the key. Meanwhile, all the souls driven out of Hell wind up at Death's apartment where Delirium throws them a party.
If you've read and enjoyed the Sandman, I can't see why you wouldn't love this.

This is my first real introduction to manga. Although familiar with it because of popular culture, I’d never actually sat down and read anything along those lines. That being said, I did enjoy this novel to a degree. The campy aspects of it were sometimes annoying, but overall, I thought Thompson did a good job of providing some background information on what was occurring during Dream’s journey into Hell.

Actual rating: 2.5 stars
For the Sandman universe, this was unexpectedly twee. Especially for a story with Despair as one of the main characters.
I enjoyed the concept - Death, Delirium, Despair all figuring out what to do with the souls of Hell when Lucifer gives Dream the key and leaves - but the execution felt a little overly silly. The art was great, though; Thompson did a really good job of translating the more classical comic book style of the series into this more cutesy, Manga inspired look.
The thing about Sandman, though, is that every version of The Endless is but an aspect of the concept they embody - so who's to say that it didn't happen this way? Canon is very malleable in this universe. And we really don't know what they did with the souls during Season of Mists.

jälle üks selline raamat, millel pole ju otseselt midagi viga, aga... milleks? see on "Season of Mists", aga (osaliselt) Endlessi perekonna "tüdrukute" perspektiivist, ehk siis - sel ajal, kui Morpheus lahendab küsimust, mida hakata edasi peale põrguga, mille võti on tema käes, on kõik põrgust pääsenud hinged seadnud end sisse Surma kodus ja Death, Despair ja Delirium kolmekesi püüavad olukorda kontrolli all hoida (Delirium korraldab peo ja see toimib üllatavalt hästi. isegi Despair leiab deidi.)
kahjuks mu kokkuvõte paneb selle loo kõlama palju paremini, kui ta tegelikult välja kukkunud oli siin. tervete lehekülgede kaupa on lihtsalt "Season of Mistsi" ümber joonistatud-jutustatud ja jälle pole keegi Endlessidest justkui päriselt enda moodi. aga noh, eks need mangastiilis pildid on nunnud, vähemalt Dream ja Death on.

I read this in high school and didn’t remember it well. Death (Sort of a 90’s high school girl version of the Grim Reaper) is caught in the middle of a negotiation between good and evil for Hell. So she has to host all the souls that were there at her house in a house party straight out of a John Hughes movie.

call me crazy, but I think "Sandman" is a serious work and it doesnt deserve such a storytelling. I cant resist this one. They are very powerfull and important figurs, but.. that was a joke? I dont know. It was probably a joke.. it should be.

Jill Thompson retells the fourth volume of The Sandman but focuses on how the three Endless sisters worked together to keep things running after Lucifer abandoned Hell. The art is cute and I loved seeing Dream depicted as an early 2000s OEL manga bishounen, but I still don't know why this was made.
June 14, 2007
I still love to...well, to death, and while 's take on the characters isn't as profound as 's, it is darn fun, and the manga-style art she uses in this book is lovely. I'd love more...but did a second volume ever materialize? If so, I haven't seen it!

Fue por casualidad dar con el libro, y un gran hallazgo. En este comic con dibujos de estilo manga, la trama sigue a Muerte "Death" una de las Eternos (Mythos de Sandman DC), quien ayudada por Delirio y Desesperación, tienen que lidiar con los muertos cuando se cierran las puertas del infierno. A diferencia de la novela original, esta contiene un humor menos maduro y se centra mas en la comedia de la situación.
Es un buen complemento a la historia de Sandman, es decir, lo vas a disfrutar más si conoces Sandman y los Mythos, de caso contrario la trama será menos atractiva.

I think that Gaiman did a good job with Season of Mists. Thompson, not so much. The Sandman series played with style a bit throughout it's run, but I don't think that manga really fits the tone of what the stories are about and this adaptation doesn't really make much sense if you haven't already read at least the Season of Mists book and the ones that came before it.

This was a creative effort at expanding the Sandman universe by telling a story from Death's perspective during the 'Season of Mists' story arc within the Sandman series. I enjoyed it, it was a fun and quirky tale and one you should enjoy if you're a fan of the Sandman universe and that version of Death.
