Sandman Volume 10: The Wake 30th Anniversary Edition cover

In the final Sandman tale, Morpheus makes the ultimate decision between change and death. As one journey for the Endless ends, another begins for the Lord of Dreams and his family, bringing with it a time of reflection and a sad celebration.

It s a wake in which friends and loved ones, relatives and rivals, fleeting lovers and immortal enemies gather to pay their respects and to mourn their loss. The tenth instalment of Neil Gaiman s seminal, New York Times best-selling series, The Sandman Vol. 10: The Wake, celebrates its 30th anniversary with an all-new edition, featuring a new cover from artist Dave McKean! Collects The Sandman #70-75.
