Gaiman takes full advantage of this, bringing Morpheus into the pits of Hell, Hotel Convention Centres, the Justice League of America base, Arkham Asylum, and the minds of some pretty loveable and some other pretty demented characters.
Beyond the uniquely pensive writing style I've come to love from Gaiman, it is brought to life with the gorgeous accompanying art from the artists involved. The Absolute edition of this set of comics was completely the right choice to enter this world; Stunning binding, lengthy concept art, behind-the-scenes issue proposal write-ups and scripts. Super fascinating.
