Sandman: The Complete Shakespeare Collection (2024-)

In the timeless realm of The Dreaming, a pact made centuries ago continues to unfold. Morpheus, the King of Dreams, once struck a bargain with the mortal playwright William Shakespeare. This agreement granted the Bard access to stories that would endure for generations, weaving the fabric of humanity's imagination. The characters from his works, including Auberon and Titania of the faerie courts, are confirmed as real denizens within this cosmology. Their presence blurs the line between artistic creation and ancient truth, with Shakespeare's plays serving as both record and conduit for these eternal beings. The ink on the original contract has long since dried, but its consequences resonate through every staged performance.
