For a while ...

Towards the end of last Year I aquired the 'Absolute' versions of Watchmen and Sandman (vol 1)...

My god these are beautiful - The Watchman is completely remastered line art and recoloured and the first 18 issues of Sandman (Sandman is coming out in four volumes - vol 1 has issues 1 -20 in) have been recoloured. The books also have nice leather covers and the paper (and print) is larger than normal on a glossy 8x12 stock...

I recommend these to - well anyone. Essential reading in their ultimate format ...

Dig around online a bit and you can pick them up at good prices ....

Did they correct the atrocious inking in A Game of You? (which, incidentally, also contains some of the best artwork in the series...)

I saw these in They Walk Among Us in Richmond last week. I'd heard of them, but hadn't seen copies, they are just gorgeous. I'm very tempted, despite still having the original comics, and the softback collections of Watchmen and a couple of Sandman.
