I love this kind of writing. I'm not a huge reader of graphic novels... So as a sort of intro to such it is intense. I enjoyed myself as I explored the dark, emotional and raw storytelling that is Sandman. I do have to say, I read it because of first loving the Netflix's Sandman TV show. And while I can appreciate this graphic novel, I don't think it can touch (at least season one's) ability to adapt this tale into something even darker, more thrilling, and more sensitive to the stories of women, POC, and LGBTQ+ characters contained within. I love the liberties Netflix took and it is one of the rare cases of a TV adaptation rising above the source material for me. And this was pretty good for source material.
