The Dreaming: Waking Hours #3

The Dreaming: Waking Hours #3 builds continues to build on the strong start G. Willow Wilson gave us in the previous two issues. Her unique tale is an engaging and captivating continuation of the Sandman mythos. Read Full Review

I also love how the artists have created three different styles to represent the three different locations in the story. Read Full Review

The Dreaming: Waking Hoursis one of the best comics on the shelf this year and likely one of the most satisfying reads you'll pluck off the shelf this week. The blending of three narratives -- each of which with highly realized and interesting characters -- wrapped in a visually stunning package makes this a must-read for fantasy lovers the world over.

The Dreaming: Waking Hours #3 features magic, even more chaos, surprise cameos, and a visually striking look at human problems through angels, anthropomorphic embodiments, witches, fairies, and dead authors. G. Willow Wilson, Nick Robles, and Mat Lopes have crafted both memorable characters and settings, and I care equally as much about Lindy, Ruin, Jophiel, and even Heather as I do about their take on the Shakespeare authorship question and additions to the Sandman mythos.

G. Willow Wilson falters a bit here as her Puck sounds a bit too much like a stock supervillain and not, well, puckish enough. But she's still spinning and enchanting tale about legacy, consequences, and responsibility that will leave readers excited to see how it all ends. Read Full Review

This was a good issue. I'm actually invested in the plot. Side note, I have no sympathy for Lindy. How do you think that being an expert on a dead poet will lead to secure future? The comic tries to act as though that's a fairly recent phenomenon, but I'm certain it's not. And I'm not saying that's how it should be either, but it is what it is. It just feels weird to me that that was an expectation she had that was then crushed.

I love the art in Dream’s parts, so cool. The weakest part of this story is the Shakespeare research. An offensively fringe belief that I cannot believe got funding.
