I am not a fan of the art. It just does not speak to my aesthetic, but it totally fits the vibes of the comic.
I think the story that is being told is fantastic. It is so thought provoking. I just don't think I personally can deal with so much visual, grafic violence .
It is however a great character study and on par with other Gaiman books.

The story, of the accidental imprisonment of Dream, his eventual escape, and his quest to get back his tools, makes me wonder what the rest of the series is about. “The sound of her wings” is perfect, to me, because I thought, “okay what now,” and Morpheus was at the same place.
The other episodes are occasionally very violent and sometimes sexual. Definitely not for younger viewers, as they say. I’m sure the genre affected the storytelling. The inclusion of other DC characters was odd, to me. And, since I’m not a comic reader, I wasn’t always sure who was who. The myth and classical allusions are more my speed.
