Episode notes

"It's refocusing dream on like we're here to serve existence in human beings," he says. "The endless dream and death and despair are there because they represent some like elemental part of humanity." He adds that Morpheus doesn't know how Dream feels about people, which is going to be a topic for the rest of the series. It ends with him being like okay I mess I missed some time while I was in the clink as it were and I got to get back to it.

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!
