They and their new friends at the school suspect the worst, and the teachers' mysterious attitude about the missing girl isn't helping. Thompson's cute art, distinctive while remaining within traditional manga-anime conventions, fits a story full of well-written over-the-top screwball comedy and featuring cameo appearances by Death and the Sandman. Sandman series fans may be a little disappointed (it's too cute), but manga mavens will be in heaven. Less...

This is actually based off of Neil Gaiman's Sandman. The two dead boys Death passes over return in their own comic book, in a sort of manga style, to run their own detective agency. Really the only things that are the same are the character names and the character history. The tone, writer and artist are completely different . Not bad, but not great. It's an interesting read just because of where it comes from, but it's really short.
