The Sandman Vol. 7: Brief Lives by Neil Gaiman

First of all:



DRAG HIM. I am here for anyone calling out Dream for being a mopey emo git ;)

I definitely enjoyed this volume. Delirium is a great character and I'm glad we got to see more of her. Also we finally meet the elusive Destruction. I think that, funnily enough, Destruction and Death are the only people in the Endless that actually have their shit even mildly together. It was interesting to hear why Destruction left and see how he's spending his time these days [creating things mostly] and the whole 'two sides of a coin' thing. I think Death is really the only other person to understand this and it's interesting that she is able to reconcile it with still doing her 'job' while Destruction couldn't. A lot of the themes in this volume remind me of themes in Lucifer as well so it's no wonder I enjoyed it.
