The Dreaming ran for five years, though it was never a hit on the magnitude Sandman itself. Yet, its endurance allowed for the launch of several mini-series – some under the title “The Sandman Presents.” One of those mini-series starred Gaiman’s version of Lucifer as penned by Mike Carey, which spun into its own franchise with a 75-issue series in 2000 and a later 2016 revival ( visit the guide). The Sandman: Book Two, collecting The Sandman #21–37 ( Season of Mists, the first part of Fables and Reflections, and A Game of You), Sandman Special #1, and segments from Vertigo: Winter's Edge #1–3 ("The Flowers of Romance", "A Winter's Tale", and "How They Met Themselves").

Dream is a long way from his realm, but for me reading this comic feels exactly like coming home.”— The GuardianA word on Sandman collections and “recoloring.” The earliest issues of Sandman have been significantly digitally recolored in a manner more in keeping with modern colors – less impressionistic blues, greens, and purples, and more realistic colors and muddy shadows. The bad news is, all 2010 and later collected editions reflect these colors. The good news is, the change only affects the earliest issues, and the style of the colors still matches the original period – just not the actual color choices. These have become the defacto official colors as far as Gaiman and all of his collaborators are concerned.
