The Absolute Sandman #1

In "Sleep of the Just," Roderick Burgess’s desperate bid to capture Death backfires when he ensnares her brother, Dream, instead. With the Dream King imprisoned, a creeping sleep overtakes the waking world, and nightmares begin to bleed into reality. As the Sandman, Wesley Dodds, battles the shadows in the night, he finds himself drawn into a mystery that reaches far beyond his usual patrols—where even the most innocent may be hiding dark secrets.
