Neil Gaiman announces new Sandman Universe line of comics — exclusive

Watters and Howard, while relatively inexperienced in comparison, both have impressive bodies of work, with Watters having written for a number of franchise-based comic series and Howard having worked with Gaiman directly before.

The first to be released is The Sandman Universe #1 plotted by Gaiman and written by Spurrier, Hopkinson, Watters, and Howard. The art for the comic will be by Bilquis Everly, with a cover by Jae Lee. Each of those four writers will then go on to explore the "Sandman Universe" in four different series. Likewise, the series' lengths and release dates have not been disclosed.

After The Sandman Universe #1, which Gaiman is plotting with his all-star writing team handling the actual script, four new series will detail the adventures of the classic characters and new additions to the world of The Sandman. The Sandman Universe begins with four new ongoing series, existing in a shared universe, building upon Gaiman's New York Times best-selling series that lyrically weaved together stories of dreams and magic.

That sandbox largely revolves around the eponymous Sandman, or Dream (or Morpheus, Oneiros, the King of Dreams, the Prince of Stories, etc. etc.); a universal embodiment of the concepts of imagination, creativity and dreaming.

We'll have more on this later today.

Legendary creator Neil Gaiman has announced a Sandman special to launch a brand new Sandman Universe.

Indie comic convention Emerald City Comic Con will feature a Vertigo panel on Saturday, March 3, join the conversation to hear more about these new series. According to Entertainment Weekly, the biggest hangup sounds like it'll be the fact that main character Dream has disappeared, giving rise to chaos. And down in London, a young boy named Timothy Hunter alternates between dreams of becoming the world's greatest magician and nightmares of becoming its worst villain.

There is a place where gods are born and stories are spun. Dream is nowhere to be found, and in the meantime Lucien, the librarian of the Dream Library, and Matthew, a talking raven who used to be a living man, set out across a changed Dream-world on a unusual adventure. It will also follow Latoya, a comatose woman who was revived by her girlfriend and sisters with the Book of Whispers. The group mistakenly steals the essence of a voodoo deity, Erzulie, and plunges her house into the Dreaming. The series' will explore the mystery of the tutelar house's appearance alongside the House of Mystery and House of Secrets. Now suffering from Cotard delusion, the journey will catalyze her family into becoming the guardians of the rift.

A few years ago, this might have raised some eyebrows from old-school fans. People will ask, "Can we do this?" and I'll be like, "No". Trapped in a freaky prison with no memory of how he got there or why. Meanwhile, a dying LAPD officer is drawn to uncover his own self-ascribed divine mission. Oh, and those are the good guys.
