About this edition

The Sandman: Overture Deluxe Edition collects the prequel Neil Gaiman wrote twenty-five years after the original series, explaining what left Morpheus weakened enough to be captured in Sandman #1. J.H. Williams III draws it, and the pages are among the most elaborate ever printed in a mainstream comic.

Description

Background. Sandman opens with Dream already exhausted and easily trapped. Overture is the story of what did that to him: a crisis across the universe involving every aspect of Dream that exists, told twenty-five years after the fact.

What's inside. Collects The Sandman: Overture #1-6 in deluxe hardcover, written by Neil Gaiman with art by J.H. Williams III and colours by Dave Stewart.

Why it's worth it. Williams and Stewart produced pages here that people buy the book to look at rather than to read — gatefolds, dissolving panel grids, colour used structurally. It also completes Sandman, closing a loop Gaiman left open in 1989.

Edition details. 224 pages. US edition published by DC Comics. ISBN 9781401248963.
