The Sandman: Overture

Neil Gaiman returned to Dream's realm for this 2017 DC prequel, illustrated by the visionary J. H. Williams III. A single, oversized issue, The Sandman: Overture expands the mythology of the Endless with a cosmic scope, exploring events just before Morpheus's capture in the original series. It matters as a lavish, late-career capstone to Gaiman's foundational saga, showcasing Williams's breathtaking, multi-layered page designs.
