Dream A Little Dream of Me
Sandman: Dream a Little Dream of Me
Page 1. We will see more of this person later. Important notes: She has the Pouch. She’s starving. She’s addicted to the Pouch.
Page 2. Different bedroom.
Page 3. The man from the second bedroom is getting up, brushing teeth, etc. Morning stuff. The radio is playing Sandman or dream related songs. (Mister Sandman) The many in John Constantine. He steps outside and says hello to London.
Page 4. Ed’s Diner. More dream-related songs. (Sweet Dreams). ‘Mad Hettie’ gets John’s attention.
Page 5. Mad Hettie is a crazy (well, not really) homeless women who, according herself and John, is 247 years old. She tries to warn him that the Sandman is coming. She calls him Morpheus (we’ve seen that name before) and the Oneiromancer. Damn, but that guy collects names!
Page 6 and 7. ‘Creeping’ house theft as a sport. Never heard of it, short-lived fashion maybe? Thief gets caught in a dream.
Page 8. John is doing research, but keeps forgetting to research Sandman. John has bad dreams, but that’s normal for him. On the third day Dream shows up, oopsie John! Should have paid attention to Mad Hettie!
Page 9. John thinks Dream has no sense of humor. Heh. Dream asks about the Pouch. John says he knew it was powerful, but never opened it. On this page he says he couldn’t. John tells Dream that it might be in his storage shed.
Page 10. They go through John’s stuff, Dream knows its not there. John realizes that his ex-girlfriend, ‘Junkie Rachel’, must have taken it when she split.
Page 11. They take a taxi ride with one of John’s friends, Chas. More dream related songs.
Page 12. They get to Rachel’s dad’s house. Dream feels the Pouch. He tells John, “This house is dangerous.” John tells Chas to take off at the least sign of trouble. “Your missus hates me as it is. Let’s not giver her a reason to. Eh?”
Page 13. John is remembering Rachel, “Rachel was always playing with the pouch. Kept going on at me to try to open it. She’d ask me, what’s the point of having something magic if you don’t use it?” John is pretty smart, not to use the Pouch.
New power, Dream can unlock doors.
Page 14. Power’s off. Dream can see in the dark, and make a light for John.
Page 15 and 16. Gross stuff on wall (GSOW) send John into a falling-dream. Sandman goes into John’s dream and catches him, waking him up. Coolness. Sandman: “It is never only a dream.”
Page 17. GSOW is A) the remains of Junkie Rachel’s father, and B) still alive. All do to the Pouch. Ewww.
Page 18. GSOW has faces, talks. ‘the woman is ours’ etc. Dream tells them they have exceeded their boundaries. GSOW calls Dream ‘master’, they are dreams of course.
Page 19. They go into Junkie Rachel’s room. Unbelievably she is still alive, no doubt due to the Pouch.
Page 20. She’s gross. Dream takes his Pouch back.
Page 21. She’s dying without the Pouch. John demands Sandman do something. Dream tells him to leave the room.
Page 22. Dream give Junkie Rachel one last dream to take her into death.
Page 23. Dream tells John that Rachel is dead. He tells John that he, Dream, is going to Hell. John doesn’t think Dream means it literally (Dream does) and also thinks that he, John, is damned. [Note: I really need to read Swampthing and Hellblazer. I think I like John].
Page 24. John tells Dream he’s been having nightmares ever since whatever happened to him at Newcastle. Dream understands what John is asking for (sweet dreams).
