Very nice analysis.
Without spoiling it for JediXman, I'd say Bob narrating his dream (I won't reveal the character he talks to) in # 75 is another bittersweet moment that I vividly recall. Oh agreed.

Good going. Drop by and post while you keep reading, it's a very enjoyable series to talk about.

Just finished A Game of You. It was quite good, but not one of my favorite arcs.

I loved the ending of A Game of You, when Dream arrives.

I loved the ending of A Game of You, when Dream arrives. Well, that part was indeed good. It was the best part, but I didn't think it was nearly as good as the other stories.

Finished volume 2, going to begin volume 3 soon.
It was really good. But I felt a lot more satisfaction whilst reading volume 1. Still good, though.

Does vol. 2 include the Hunt, and Soft Places? I like them both.

I liked the Hunt. Soft Places was pretty good. Season of Mists was the best part of volume 2. It was great.

Prepare for Brief Lives, I also love that storyarc. But you'll have to read Sandman Special: Song of Orpheus before hand, in order to fully understand it.

Brief Lives was great. Very well done. And while I do enjoy a dark edge, some of my favorite scenes involved Barnabas.

Read the Kindly Ones. The writing as great as usual, but it's far from my favorite arc. Why? The art killed it for me. I'm sorry but good art means a lot to me. This was just crap compared to everything I was used to with this series.

I wanna say that I finished the entire Sandman series.
Excellent! It might be my favorite comic now. Men of Good Fortune and The Wake: Epilogue might be my two favorite issues (yes, I like Hob).
