The Sandman #10
In "Chapter One: Which Occurs in the Wake of What Has Gone Before," Neil Gaiman and Michael Zulli craft a haunting, introspective journey as Robert Gadling—immortal and burdened by centuries of memory—finds himself at a Renaissance Fair, drawn there by his girlfriend. Amid the pageantry and fleeting illusions, he encounters Death, yet chooses to remain, grappling with the weight of endless time. The issue’s moody atmosphere is elevated by Dave McKean’s striking cover and Daniel Vozzo and Digital Chameleon’s evocative coloring.
