About the series
In the early 1990s, Egmont UK published a brief but striking four-issue series—Shockwave—that paired writer Neil Gaiman with artist Dave McKean, the visionary team behind The Sandman’s iconic covers. This short-lived anthology showcased their signature blend of dark fantasy and experimental visual storytelling, offering a glimpse of the boundary-pushing work that would define their collaborative legacy. Though its run was limited, Shockwave stands as a notable artifact of its era, capturing a moment when British comics were boldly reimagining the medium’s artistic possibilities.
