The Sandman: Overture
Neil Gaiman, J.H. Williams III, Dave StewartTwenty-five years since THE SANDMAN first changed the landscape of modern comics, Neil Gaiman’s legendary series is back in this never-before-told tale featuring Morpheus!
THE SANDMAN: OVERTURE heralds New York Times best-selling writer Neil Gaiman’s return to the art form that made him famous, ably abetted by artistic luminary JH Williams III (BATWOMAN, PROMETHEA), whose lush, widescreen images provide an epic scope to The Sandman’s origin story. From the birth of a galaxy to the moment that Morpheus is captured, THE SANDMAN: OVERTURE will feature cameo appearances by fan-favorite characters such as The Corinthian, Merv Pumpkinhead and, of course, the Dream King’s siblings: Death, Desire, Despair, Delirium, Destruction and Destiny.

Both sequel and prequel to the original series, this standalone story bookends the narrative arc of Dream’s adventures. It’s probably my third favorite entry after Brief Lives and World’s End. Filled with the kind of beautiful, vibrant art and fantastic storytelling most of us have come to expect from Gaiman and his collaborators, it’s a stunning collection
