Episode notes

The first volume set us up to know that when stuff goes bad in dream land stuff is going bad in real life. I think what probably makes it work is the like cast of supporting characters. The fact that those individual stories hang pretty well allows the kind of purposeful motion is of the world to like hang together. So yeah, so my thoughts on looking ahead. Dream siblings are going to be a problem. We haven't met destiny yet. We've met despair. I don't know what's going to happen when destiny shows up. I bet Rose shows back up. Maybe it's my guess.

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 1, we do some table-setting on the series, and Gaiman -- then we dive into the first trade paperback Preludes & Nocturnes, which introduces Dream and his whole deal over the first 8 issues.

In Episode 2, we dig into the second book The Doll's House (which actually came out first). Dream is on the hunt to track down some rogue underlings, and a woman named Rose learns a lot about her family. Also there's a Cereal Convention!
