Removing my star rating and review.
While I certainly do enjoy the special appearances of the main characters from several mythologies, I much prefer the interactions among the Endless. Season of Mists takes the scope of Dream's action to whole new levels, but doing so feels much more impersonal than the other volumes. Even his dialogue with Nada feels stiff and cold, ripped from the vulnerability that fascinated me on the first place.
My favorite part was the epilogue. Lucifer chilling watching the sunset, giving a thumbs up to the Creator on that particular point. Priceless.

Great characters and build-up to an epic showdown between Dream and Lucifer. The twists and turns in the story were surprising and enjoyable. Several of the previous unconnected stories were tied back in, and there is just something special about a story that can bring in figures from several different mythologies and have them interact in a way that makes complete sense.
I did feel, however, that the denouement left something to be desired. It was almost a (literal) deus ex machina method to reach the end of the story.
As far as the artwork, I feel like that has improved with each issue and I look forward to the next volume.

Neil Gaiman brilliantly intertwines a new mythology of The Endless with mythologies from all over the world.
I just like how Neal Gaiman tells a story. I can't put them down. In this one Dream must make amends for a wrong he did 10,000 years ago and Lucifer leaves hell (which causes its own issues).
