The Sandman Universe: Nightmare Country - The Glass House #5

Reiko Murakami's cover for this fifth installment of The Sandman Universe: Nightmare Country — The Glass House draws you in with an unsettling close-up of a pale, shadowed figure — wide-brimmed hat casting deep crimson darkness across a featureless face — reaching forward with ghostly white hands as if grasping at something just beyond reach. The mood is pure dread rendered beautifully, exactly the kind of atmospheric tension that DC Black Label does so well. James Tynion IV, Lisandro Estherren, and Patricio Delpeche continue their mature-readers journey through the Sandman Universe, and this penultimate chapter promises the story is pressing toward something genuinely unsettling.
