Chad's Reviews > The Sandman, Vol. 4: Season of Mists

This is where the series really hits its stride. We finally meet the rest of the Endless as they get together to tell Dream what a dick move it was to condemn his ex-girlfriend to Hell. This sets off the story as Dream sets out to go to Hell and get Nada back. He fully expects Lucifer will kill him which is what makes the issue where Dream does get to Hell so great. (This story also lays the groundwork for Mike Carey's fantastic Lucifer book that will come about a few years later.) And then those moments where we meet the other pantheons, the Lords of Order and Chaos, etc. It's all so fulfilling. This entire story is just one big "Hell Yes!".

This is also where I hopped onto the book back in high school when the local comic book owner told me I should buy an issue. Thirty years later, he's still completely right.
