With the approaching twenty-fifth anniversary of Neil Gaiman's Sandman, the beloved writer has seen fit to announce a mini-series prequel for November 2013. Break out the champagne.

The plot is said to revolve around the untold story of Morpheus' easy capture in The Sandman #1, and "why he was returned from far away, exhausted beyond imagining, and dressed for war."
