The Sandman

This volume really dragged. The stories were completely random and lacked any depth. It jumped around to various pieces of history with little reason. I got the impression that Gaiman's editor said “We need another comic NOW!” to which Gaiman replied “damn. idk yet how I want to procede with the story. Let me open this history book to a random page, pick a character's name (or event), summarize the character and/or the event, then briefly add in some of the main characters in the last 2 pages of each issue.”
