I just finished reading The Graveyard Book today. It's a shame Gaiman is such a woker irl. You can kinda see it in that book too tbh, since he made sure the reader knows the MC's only human friend is black.

Tbf the Sandman is not nearly as woke as it could have been and I was expecting much worse from Neil Wokeman. But that's probably because the show sticks pretty close to the original comics and they were wrote in the late 80s/ early nineties

Neil Wokeman :))) that's a good one

I'll give the show a chance then. Thanks for making this post.

I haven't finished it yet, but I'm still enjoying the show despite the token blacks and lezzie sex. I thought it was funny that all the demons in hell were scary black men. Are they poking fun at what they're doing?

Lol god no. These people have no self awareness

It's also a bit funny that one of the villains is a gay serial killer. By woke standard's, that's considered violent homophobia
