Cool!
I've heard good things about this series. (Who hasn't?) So I decided to give it a look, myself.
So some group of occultists try to summon Death and trap her so they could have immortality. They get the wrong creature. They end up with her younger brother, Dream. They keep him trapped for 70 years. But they make a mistake and he escapes.
Now he's got two things on his mind, restoring order to his place in the universe, and of course, revenge. He gets the latter by sending the son of the original occultist (who followed his father's footsteps) into an endless nightmare. Now he's got to do the former.
I really liked the pacing, every event went by without dragging or moving too fast. And the narration parts weren't annoying, meaning they were used correctly.
The only problem I have is the art. I don't particularly like it. The colors are way too bright and a few of the opening pages are cluttered. But I remembered how old this comic is, so I tried to just deal with it.
If the rest of the series is like this, then I can see why so many people love this series. (And why DC keeps milking it.) Hopefully the art gets better...
