Reality Deviant Book Club: Sandman

The Sandman⁠ is one of the most highly lauded comic runs to have ever been published, what can we take from it for our games? Pooka and Adam discuss mood, inspiration, and ⁠T.S. Eliot⁠ in this edition of Reality Deviant Book Club.

Show Notes

  • ⁠The Annotated Sandman⁠, which was a late 90s/early 00s passion project to capture as many internal connections and external references as possible, issue by issue
  • TXT archive⁠ from an earlier version of the website
  • Vertigo released their own very expensive series with the same name, with “proper” annotations, but… using the power of the early internet to situate and discover the series’ intertextuality felt a lot more magical.
