The Sandman Omnibus Vol. 2 carries Neil Gaiman's saga into its mature architecture, where Morpheus' choices return as obligations, punishments and stories that refuse to stay buried. The volume deepens the Endless, the Dreaming and the human lives caught around them, with arcs that make the series feel like mythology being written in real time. It is the continuation piece for understanding the cost of Dream's pride.
