Sandman #28
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThe closing chapter of Sandman's celebrated "Season of Mists" arc arrives with this 1991 DC issue, written by Neil Gaiman with art by Mike Dringenberg and inks by George Pratt. Dave McKean's cover presents Dream rendered in deep blues and shadow, his pale crown of hair stark against a muted, layered background of orange and amber, with small red kanji-like characters scattered across his dark form — a haunting, painterly image entirely in keeping with the arc's grand, mythological weight. The cover text hints at farewells to absent friends and old gods, and of giving the season its due, making this epilogue feel both elegiac and quietly earned.
