Books of Magic #20

Part of DC's Sandman Universe Black Label line, Books of Magic #20 continues "Field of Dreams, Part Two" with a cover by Kai Carpenter that perfectly captures the series' sense of wonder: a bespectacled young boy perches atop a towering stack of books, engrossed in an open volume while dozens of other books swirl and float through the air around him. It's an image that feels both magical and intimate, suggesting a mind — and a world — overflowing with hidden knowledge. David Barnett, Tom Fowler, Craig Taillefer, and colorist Marissa Louise bring their talents to this mature-readers chapter in Tim Hunter's ongoing journey through the DC Universe's mystical corners.
