About the series
Neil Gaiman returned to the Dreaming for this prequel to his landmark Sandman series, published by DC's Vertigo imprint in a six-issue run from 2013 to 2015. With J. H. Williams III's lush, shape-shifting art expanding the cosmic scope, the story explores the events that left Morpheus weary before his original saga began. It's a visually stunning and emotionally resonant coda that deepens the mythology of one of comics' most celebrated works.
