9: The Kindly Ones

The end is near as we discuss the longest story arc from the Sandman. Dream confronts the consequences of his actions and there is some glorious artwork and story-telling, but this wouldn't be A Handful of Dust if we didn't encounter some problems along the way.

Content Note: The Sandman series deals with and features some particularly dark and troubling subject matters, and we have discussed them briefly and in depth in this podcast. Here is a list of some of the subjects that feature in Book 9, The Kindly Ones:

Depictions of dead bodies and blood, including depiction of a dead child.
References to suicide.
