Episode notes

Game resists the urge to do a montage of hell being open and dead people just showing up everywhere. He would rather give you a compelling character that you care about and then have their world get flip turned upside down by the monstrous thing that's happening. That is how you understand the impact of lucifer closing hell and the stakes that uh morpheus's decision will haveYeah it's just a smart way to do it that is you know yeah like they died there they are they are ghosts entities whatever. These characters show up in other crossover stories that game worked on in something called the children's crusade.

Welcome to our newest show-within-a-show! We're working our way through Neil Gaiman's signature graphic novel series THE SANDMAN. Some Patreon supporters get these episodes monthly, but every two months we'll combine them for general consumption.

In Episode 3: DREAM COUNTRY, Gaiman needed a bit of a break after the Doll's House arc, and the result was a series of one-shots that contributed bits and pieces to the series' mythology without telling one larger story. Doesn't mean there isn't a lot to talk about, though!

In Episode 4: SEASON OF MISTS, there is a plot! Specifically, a plot about the Devil retiring and giving Dream the key to Hell and a bunch of other supernatural beings pleading their case for why they should get that sweet piece of real estate. Also a little kid sees some ghosts.
