So is it a remake or a continuation?

Coincidentally enough, I just watched a video interview with Gaiman, and by the sounds of things, there's no way he'd do a remake of anything. Ever. So I think it's safe to assume it's a brand new thing. It's supposed to be seven stories, drawn by seven different artists (six of which he's never worked with before, but has always wanted to), based on the seven figures (Death, Destiny, Desire, etc.). I'm pretty sure they're all set in different time periods throughout the Sandman continuity. One of them, he said, was the earliest Sandman story chronologically (something to do with the creation of the universe). Anyway, looks like he took it very seriously returning to something that a) he loved so much and b) so many other people loved so much - he didn't want to make something that would tarnish his readers' memories of Sandman, and he said that he is proud of it, and he believes that it stands up to all of his previous works.
