42nd: Season of Mists

<p>We are back to discuss Sandman! This is the fourth of our episodes discussing Sandman as we read through the entire story.</p><p>Season of Mists is possibly the most mythology-heavy and plot-heavy arcs of Sandman. We dive into this story of the burden caused by the Key to Hell in this episode.</p><p>This is a strange story arc to us in many ways. It doesn't have the thematic takeaways to it that previous stories have had, at least on first glance. We dig a little deeper to see if we can reveal any.</p><p>We even find a lot to enjoy in the middle issue of this story, about the child away at boarding school, that reinforces some of the central themes of this story arc.</p><p>This story also expands the world of Sandman in some interesting ways, and leaves a lot more open plot threads than any story so far. We discuss how this effects this story, and how it places this story within the greater series.</p><p>Hop in and enjoy the episode!</p>
