(This is a review of all three issues.) I'm always a fan of a creative personified Death! Some aspects of the story weren't fully explained, but maybe that just means I should read the related titles. (Oh, the joy of comic books!) I thought all the characters were compelling and the ads were seriously the best! (The one for digital cassette tapes was especially funny.)

This is a very subtle ending. I won't go as far as to say "anticlimactic", but it definitely wasn't the kind of ending I was expecting, at least in tempo. But them again that's fiction right, lead the reader one way and then go the other. Lovely series on the whole. Lovely.

Mrs. Robbins "That GIRL. I'm TELLIN' you. That GIRL will be the death of me."
Mad Hettie, rescues Death who continues in her search for Hettie's heart, while trying to enjoy her one day in a century as a mortal and avoiding the Eremite who is pursuing her. This is exciting, tragic, and comes full circle with an ending that is satisfying. Loved the poetry and messages in Gaiman's writing, and love how Death is portrayed as someone who knows, understands and will be your friend when the time comes for you both to meet.
