Popcorn Culture - Review: The Sandman

Following on a successful audio adaptation, Neil Gaiman's epic graphic novel series, The Sandman, finally makes its way onto our screens. But how can a story as complex and nerdy as this - with its multiple threads and characters, blending of mythology, modern life, literature and philosophy - be translated into a series? It turns out - with some style. In this episode, we discuss how we feel about The Sandman, and where it sits in the larger lineup of comic book adaptations.
