HUNDRED WORD HIT #269 - SANDMAN UNIVERSE: NIGHTMARE COUNTRY #2
Sandman Universe - Nightmare Country #2 by James Tynion IV, Lisandro Estherren & Andrea Sorrentino
The Corinthian seeks answers from Flynn about The Smiling Man, the entity she keeps seeing with mouths for eyes.
Their conversation is interrupted by Lucien from The Dreaming who transports the Corinthian back to its library. There he finds that most of the authors of unwritten books which feature The Smiling Man have all all died within the last six weeks. Horribly.
Returning to her apartment after seeing her friends, Flynn finds her paintings of The Smiling Man on fire and the assassins, Mr Agony and Mr Ecstasy, wanting a word with her.
This has the making of a classic.
