The Sandman Vol. 8: Worlds' End by Neil Gaiman
4.0
It's meta story time with Neil Gaiman and it's delightful, even if it's mostly disconnected from Dream and the other Endless. In World's End, a man unintentionally drives into a "reality storm" and has a car accident. Lost in the snow he finds himself at an inn filled with strange and wonderful guests, including centaurs, fairies and more. To pass the time during the storm, each tells a story, and many are actually stories about being told stories themselves.
Gaiman went with this format as an excuse to work with some of his favourite comic book artists, and it pays off. The art for the stories showcases some impressive talents in different styles, but doesn't break you out of the overall universe.
