It's pretty cool.
Its one of those works that's immensely enriched by knowing all the things that it's referencing. Googling the history, plays, mythology etc. that is being referenced as you go makes it all the more enjoyable. Have fun, it's one of the all time greats for a reason

Thank goodness that this wasn't talking about Shadman.
Interesting how Sandman, Watchmen and Dark Knight Returns were the big three for so long but now it's a big two because Sandman's edgy early 90's art has aged like doo doo while Watchmen and DKR are eternal.
the fuck you talk about? TDK has aged terribly, Sandman is still talked about as the pinnacle of comics.
Disagree and disagree
This is a terrible take.
All three are still talked about. Sandman just isn't talked about so much in terms on its influence on modern superhero comics because it isn't about a superhero.
Something vastly overrated but still alright
>every time I try to read Sandman I get sidetracked by work or other shit I wanna read
Help me, Yea Forums. On the bright side, I've read that phenomenal opening arc like six times.
