Finished The SANDMAN ACT II on #Audible. I really enjoy James MacAvoy as Morpheus and I think it's good to listen to these before the TV show as it's a more faithful adaptation of the comic books.

A commendable sequel to the inaugural piece. I’m looking forward to more comic adaptations in this vein going forward. It seems all cast members have reprised their roles, some are recognizable while others not so much. The score, sound design, and additional elements are exceptionally well-executed.
