Gaiman effortlessly works Constantine into his epic world containing Gods, super-heroes, a nd average Joes and Janes living their out their lives oblivious to the supernatural dramas going on around them. The most memorable is John Constantine, the dry-witted Brit wizard of "Hellblazer" and "Swamp Thing" fame. I don't know much about DC comics, but a few DC and vertigo characters have cameos. Here, Sandman has been rudely kidnapped by human magicians who trap him in a magic bubble and keep him from his realm, "the Dreaming." Ultimately, the stories in this volume revolve around Sandman's escape from his imprisonment and his quest to rebuild the dream-realm and find several magical items. Here, Gaiman introduces his readers to Sandman, the tall, pale avatar of dreams and stories. I love the entire Sandman story! This volume sets the stage for what is to come. ![]()
