The Sandman, Vol. 3: Dream Country

Dream Country is one of the best collections of stand alone tales of Sandman, all of them bringing amazing stories that everyone must read. The first, Calliope, tell us about writer's block and how the Dream changed after his captivity; A Tale of Thousand Cats, the second tale, is just AWESOME, talking about the captivity of our bodies and minds... Midnight Summer's Dream tell us about our captivity of our wishes, dreams and aspirations; the final one, Facade, about of us and the captivity of old masks and identities... It's just amazing. it was after reading Hy Bender's Sandman Companion that I've learned several “secrets” (hidden layers is a better term) in Midnight Summer's Dream... Gaiman is awesome, with Sandman as his master work.
