Dream takes the back seat yet again in his own series.  What I like the most about this arc is that one of the main characters is trans, in 1991; be prepared for a ton of transphobia and deadnaming though, which is unfortunately accurate.  This was a mostly interesting story and decently paced for another limited location tale.  I wish there had been more time with Martin Tenbones.
