The Dreaming #14 - "Shevirat, the Shattering"



Anyone familiar with the original Sandman series knows that it’s characterized by serious poetic whimsy and I wanted to be able to emulate that through the eyes of certain characters through which that fits, like Lucien and Cain and Abel. But I also wanted to be able to a bit iconoclastic and have a dirty sense of humor and to occasionally point out when things are strange and pompous and that’s Dora. She allows me to exercise a little bit of my mischievous “tear it all down” British sense of humor and at the same time enjoy the musical wordplay and prose of the original series. -- Si Spurrier

Joker: Killer Smile #1



"I wanted to tell an intimate story about how the Joker’s evil is something that can devastate a normal family or a relationship as much as it devastates society as a whole. That the idea that really grabbed me, that sense of terror that would come from letting something like the Joker into your family. As someone who has a family myself, that kind of chaos and darkness infecting my personal space is the scariest thing I can think of, and so I started there." -- Jeff Lemire
