/SANDMAN: OVERTURE #1
(W) NEIL GAIMAN, (A) J H WILLIAMS III
Twenty-five years since THE SANDMAN changed the landscape of modern comics, Neil Gaiman's legendary series is back! 2 different covers to choose from: Cover A by Williams or Cover B by original series cover artist Dave McKean.
THE SANDMAN: OVERTURE heralds New York Times best-selling writer Neil
Gaiman's return to the art form that made him famous, ably abetted by
artistic luminary J.H. Williams III (BATWOMAN, PROMETHEA), whose lush,
widescreen images provide an epic scope to The Sandman's origin story.
From the birth of a galaxy to the moment that Morpheus is captured, THE
SANDMAN: OVERTURE will feature cameo appearances by fan-favorite
characters such as The Corinthian, Merv Pumpkinhead and, of course, the
Dream King's siblings: Death, Desire, Despair, Delirium, Destruction and
Destiny.
"People have often asked me what happened to Morpheus to
make it possible for him to be captured in THE SANDMAN #1," Gaiman said.
"And now they get to find out. And finding out, they get to learn
secrets of the Endless that I've kept to myself for 25 years. Family
secrets. And I should warn you: one of the Endless dies on page five."
