![]() My biggest hangup with the series is that Dream, already seemingly having a nasty aloof god-complex among the other Endless (the series Not Gods:tm: which Dream, Death, Desire, etc are a part of), sours further when he's locked up by a pretentious Brit for a hundred years and then learns all his stuff has been scattered to the winds. All the characters are great, the Corinthian is the most well known one as he's kind of an arc villain, and because his whole stylish serial killer thing which I'm sure was basically a love potion for a certain kind of True Crime fan, but some of my favorites include Glibert/Fiddler's Green, a traveller's paradise taken human form to travel the world himself, straight man(raven) Matthew, optimistic immortal Hob Gadling, and work-a-day exorcist Johanna Constantine. ![]() ![]() It follows the titular Sandman, the (not quite, but effectively) God of dreams, who after a near century long imprisonment sets out on the human world to regain his tools, and reign in his wayward children. If you can get over the main character being a bit of a melodramatic jerk for most of the season, there's a really good series here with setup for a thankfully confirmed second season. ![]() The Sandman is a dark urban fantasy series, and quite a good one to boot. ![]()
