Free Country: A Tale of the Children's Crusade

In 2017, DC published this single-issue tale written by Neil Gaiman and illustrated by Chris Bachalo, reimagining the medieval Children's Crusade through a fantastical, poignant lens. Part of the larger Free Country project, it stands as a standalone story that blends historical tragedy with Gaiman's signature mythic sensibility. Its concise, self-contained nature makes it a distinctive entry in DC's catalog, offering a quiet, resonant exploration of faith and innocence.
