I only enjoyed issue three- a hope in hell.
This series has long been highly rated and I found it a almost complete disappointment and let down.
All the female characters lack agency. They are foils to the male characters who have agency in multiple ways. Only two named characters offer characters of minority ethnicity - both have no impact on overall plot.
The first eight issues of Gaiman’s sandman comic books. Gaiman’s afterward acknowledges he finds “many of them awkward and ungainly,although even the clumsiest of them has something - a phrase perhaps or an idea or an image I’m still proud of”.
Graphic: Torture, Violence, and Injury/Injury detail
Moderate: Homophobia, Rape, and Murder

i think it dragged needlessly in certain points, but i was very satisfied with how it ended. the issue when death was introduced was easily my favorite.
