There’s only one way to find out. After what can only be charitably described as a rocky start, The Sandman finally seemed to find its footing last week in the epilogue cum bridge episode, ‘The Sound Of Her Wings,’ that both introduced us to Dream’s big sister, Death, and followed Dream on a journey of remembering and discovering his personality and purpose. ![]() Hello, and welcome, once again, to our coverage of Netflix’s Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman. ![]() ![]() ![]() We love chocolate! 70% cocoa is always a good bet, but honestly, use whatever you can get your hands on.
