The Sandman: Preludes & Nocturnes #[1]
In "Sleep of the Just," the first chapter of The Sandman: Preludes & Nocturnes, Morpheus—Dream of the Endless—is finally freed after decades in captivity, setting in motion a journey of reckoning and rediscovery. Written by Neil Gaiman and brought to life with haunting visuals by Sam Kieth, with inks by Mike Dringenberg and colors by Robbie Busch, the story unfolds with a quiet dread that gives way to something far more profound. The cover, a striking piece by Dave McKean, captures the eerie stillness of a world on the edge of awakening.
