A review by magneto
The Sandman Vol. 5: A Game of You by Neil Gaiman

dark medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

Torn on how to rate this, settling on 3. The treatment of the trans character and sole black character are... questionable at best. I know this is a product of its time so keeping that in mind with the rating. Really not a fan of the art style and choices in this volume as usual and looking forward to a modern adaptation of this handled by a diverse writers room.
