Uniquely blending mythology and history to produce a masterpiece within the DC setting, the Sandman comic books are best known for their incredible storytelling. The Sandman became so popular that it became one of the best-selling DC comics, even overshadowing Batman and Superman at one point. The series ran for 75 issues for more than 6 years (from 1989 to 1996). The Sandman series revolves around the story of Morpheus, who goes by several names in the DC universe, including Dream. Thus, the powerful character of the Sandman was born. In the late 1980s, Karen Berger of DC Comics hired Neil Gaiman to take an old comic book character and put his own twist on it. Eclipsing even some of his famous novels and short stories, the Sandman series was the first major work for which Neil Gaiman received recognition. This is one of the most popular works by Neil Gaiman to date. However, Neil Gaiman is extremely popular for several of his other comic books as well, including The Eternals and Whatever Happened to the Caped Crusader? Gaiman’s breakthrough in the literary world came with his legendary Sandman series, which ran successfully for several years with DC Comics.

Neil Gaiman is an incredible storyteller with an impressive repertoire of comic books under his belt.
