The Sandman #1

This thirtieth-anniversary hardcover collects the opening arc of Neil Gaiman's landmark fantasy series, originally published in issues #1–8 of The Sandman. It follows Dream of the Endless — also known as Morpheus, the lord of the Dreaming — as he escapes decades of imprisonment and embarks on a quest to reclaim his stolen tools of power, crossing paths with an array of mortals and supernatural figures along the way. Featuring art by Sam Kieth, Mike Dringenberg, and Malcolm Jones III, the volume that introduced readers to Gaiman's richly mythological DC Universe is here presented in a deluxe anniversary format.
