3.5 stars.

and so begins the Sandman marathon after binging the show. I have read nearly all of Gaiman's work so i'm surprised it took me til now to start this iconic comic. However, i think it was for the best, because the tv shows tweaks really improved how the story is introduced to a fresh audience, imo. The art was not really my taste, but that is coming from someone who gravitates towards contemporary series from pubs such as Image, so that is to be expected. nonetheless, i am excited to continue this series! I can tell we have only scraped the surface of understanding these complex characters (ESPECIALLY our protagonist, Morpheus.......cuz OOF).
