#TheSandman #NeilGaiman #Comics - บันเทิง
Going to take a Sandman detour because I want to cover Batman: The Long Halloween before the animated movie drops next month on June 22. So next video will be Batman: The Long Halloween, and then I will continue on with Sandman. Long Halloween is long (13 issues) and I don't want to split it in two videos, so I might potentially take two weeks to do it and skip a Sunday release. We'll see though!
@Dannymalt you definitely reignited my love for comics. Looking forward to the next series keep up the great work!
@@denisewilliams9987 I’m kinda the same, I have to work a lot so I can’t sit down and read and really get into a comic, but Danny puts me there just like I’m reading.
Sandman audiobook.
@@fireflame62 yea but I like Danny that’s why I watch his videos and don’t do something like that
@@ElMarko6994 I like dannymatt to
The story about cats is the belief that belief itself shapes reality, perception of reality and reality itself is interchangeable.
It's an amusing idea, and it may be the difference between those who spend their life playing with that idea(having talent), from those who don't.
thats just sounds like the Mandela effect with extra steps
Also sounds like Kruger Dunning.
It also happens to be correct.
@@commiebastard3633 lol, that second line reeks of it
The Sandman will be happy, and maybe he'll visit you in your dreams.😊😊😊👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏
You cover things that later becomes movies (jupiter rising, invincible, the boys). You are ahead of your time.👍
@Over Starter Agreed.
yeah....
that's literally the point..
You forgot sweet tooth
@@MrReckless1978 Facts.
now the sandman show
I think you forgot the most important part of element girl's story. The call she got at the end of the story that called that was picked up by death. Somebody cared enough to ask about her at the end and death said she was gone. The story implies that she gave up too soon.
Oh my....The Element Girl story hits me so hard, and the Cats one is awesome too
I gotta say Neil has a very complex imagination
neil is a genius... i hav all these books you're reading I just enjoy listening and watching the videos about them... I love to revisit the sandman my favorite DC Characters are all in there
even the female metamorpho... I used to love metamorpho... hahahaha idk there was a female one till I read sandman years ago...
The American Gods audio drama is so freaking amazing
@@Stitchlii any idea on where I can listen to it? Can’t seem to find it on TH-cam
I discovered your channel with the first video of this series and got absolutely amazed. I read Sandman long time ago and watching your videos makes me feel so nostalgic.
Your narration is so good. I'm from Brazil and I'm really insecure about my english, but the way you talk/read is so good that I can understand everything.
One of my biggest dreams was too buy the whole Sandman Absolute Edition, but this new ones seems so beautiful that I'm thinking of trying buy them.
Anyway, I loved the videos so far, thank you. (Also this four short stories are one my favorites in the entire Sandman's, can't wait for the rest of them)
That "gate" that the faeries come through for the Shakespeare one is an ancient geoglyph carved into a green hillside in Sussex. It's about 235 feet tall. It's called the "Long Man of Wilmington."
Genuinely gotta say this is always a highlight of my week, cheers Danny
Big props on cornering the market on full sandman volume dives, spent a bit looking for some and you by far have the best and most in depth of any I’ve seen!
Danny, i was very much waiting for this , now my Sunday is complete. Love your hard work , keep it coming. Thanks for sharing
I am very satisfied with the quality of your content. Besides a few mispronounced words your giving a detailed mastitis to the story lines and the visuals are satisfying. Your choice of music and sound effects is subtle but appreciated. Thank you for a unique way of ingesting comics.
Thank you for your comic summaries Danny
Thank you so very much for this, people like you keep the world spinning sometimes
Great Job covering this comic(and all the others) Keep up the awesome work!
Man I swear Danny is on my top five comic channels 💯⚡🦸
Yuhhhhhh, I love waking up to a DannyMalt audio-comic
Appreciate all the good work I watch your stuff constantly thanks for introducing me to all these great titles
Great job like always
The dream of Cats was very good, I did not think it was daft at all. Linked in nicely with cats being worshipped in ancient egypt and Lovecrafts Cats of Ulthar and of course Lovecrafts Dreamlands.
The Element Girl issue always makes me tear up...
Man I was waiting for you do long Halloween, this is a great detour from sandman.
Thanks Danny!!!
Fun fact: the "green shrubbery" that opens the fey doors is actually the Cerne Abbas Giant, a hill figure in Dorset dating back to around the 16th century.
Shrubbery? SHRUBBERY?! Mate, look up the Long Man of Wilmington and you'll find that what he's standing on - and what he's opening there - is an effing hill! (This btw plays on the idea in Irish folklore that fairies live Under The Hill.)
As for The Dream of a Thousand Cats - this entire volume is about stories. Calliope is used to create stories. Shakespeare transforms the brutal, capricious fae of old into mischievous fairies with his tale. Urania hides behind her masks, those little stories we tell everyone we meet - "I am happy." "I am disaffected." "I am a mother." "I am someone important." And the cats learn that stories change our world. The Middle Ages were full of brave knights, honourable kings, and noble queens, because that's what our stories tell us. Is it true? Of course not, but that doesn't matter. What matters is that people believe it. If you want to change the belief, you have to change the story.
He thought the knights who say "ni" would be watching and brought them a shrubbery since they love them so much.
Sunday is my new favorite day
Thank youu kind sir for the content❤
Batman TLH?! omfg omfg omfg! that stories ending is left to interpretation, so im gonna go with what ever Dannys interpretation is!
Will the son and harveys wife ?
So happy I found your channel and I love your story telling! Thank You 🙏🏻 I just watched finished netflix The Sandman ep 11 Calliope and while waiting for season 2 i found you 🥳💕
so just a thought about shakespears son. the fae do replace the children with changelings who are sickly and die. the way I took it was that the boy left and the changling boy is what died and his son his happy and loved in the realm of the fae
super happy to hear you doing the long halloween do whatever you need to do
Mr. Danny, I didn’t mean how many episodes will be made by others. I want to know how many episodes of your content I have to look forward to. It truly makes my Sunday morning.
If I do all of Sandman it will be 10 volumes. Some of the later volumes are really long, so it's possible I will split some of them up into Part 1 and Part 2. Also I am really looking forward to after Sandman, as I want to jump around to a whole bunch of different books, as I do sometimes hate having to stick to one book for such a long time to finish it.
I totally forgot about the cat one!!! I loved that issue, how could I forget it?
Thank you so much! I’ve only been able to find the first 8 issues and then from 32 forward, so I really need the help to fill the gap between issues
I enjoy your vids on comics especially The Sandman and i am excited for the Netlifx Sandman series.
i always like the thought of throwaway characters being used for great stories although as melancholic as element girl's was
Hell yea Danny , Batman gets no complaints from me, thanks for another great video!
That Tom cat was GARFIELD LOL
Thank you!!! 👏😍
I forgot it was Sunday. Yes!!
Your video quality is insanely good, what gear do you use?
I use a Blue Yeti Mic and a Logitech Web Cam and a Ring Light. Audacity software to record narration. OBS software to record webcam video. Edit with Premiere Pro.
Awesome
It's interesting how this comic touched on man's ability to shape the world around us to fit our own reality. Even reshape history ie Paul Revere, Christopher Columbus to suit our narrative.
cats rule the world? Puurrrfect 😼
The review mentioned the fruit Titania offered Hamnet -- folklore insists on caution in all dealings with The Fae.
They are cunning, cruel and extremely compelling. Make no wishes or bargains as all comes at a price. And never, ever accept gifts or eat of enchanted food. Fair-folk are scary! 😐
Thank you Dannymalt for covering Batman The Long Halloween! I can't wait. If it does well, please cover another Batman storyline (maybe Batman Court of Owls or Batman Hush, or the Dark Knight Returns)in the future if the video does well.
Once I finish Sandman, I think I’m going to just jump around a lot more covering different series, before I focus in on a long term one again. I’ll definitely throw some more Batman’s’ in there.
@@dannymalt thank you! No rush
I think that the cat issue, is a reflection of the fear we had of the big cats, back in antiquity.
CANT WAIT FOR THIS TO BE SEASON 2 of sandman in netflix !!
- Cats make me itch at the size they are now, I don't want them any bigger!
This volume was interesting.
After watching your first sandman cover at night I got dream paralysis so yeah thank lol
At page 11 panel 4 of dream of a thousand cats as the siamese cat walks through the dreaming (talking to the raven) it says "'all places are the same to me" which is a refrence to rudyard kipling's the cat that walked by himself.
(I might be wrong about the panel and the page)
Saga of the swamp thing
I have to buy this comic book.
When's the next sandman analysis?? These are great btw 👍
Normally tomorrow, but I’m behind schedule, so I’m pushing it to next Sunday.
@@dannymalt thanks for replying 🙏 I hope you get to cover the first 10 anyway 👍 I'll watch the batman one in the meantime
Things not always as they seem
The CA one is awesome ❤❤❤
alright... well, i was going to bash on this weird comics, but, darn it! it was just ...interesting!
...anyway, i think the cat tale has something to do with faith, but in a 10000% scale, I mean, Jesus in the bible said that, "if one man had faith the size as a mustard seed, could tell a mountain to move from here to there and the mountain will obey having no other choice". Now to ask 100 cats to dream to change the world all at once and at the same time is upping up that 100 times 100 x 100 = 10000% (lol i don't know what i am talking about here, maphth!) But the cat said humans once did this, meaning humans once had the faith to change the world as it is today, but probably forgot and take day to day for granted, till one day, those 100 kittens will change the world once again.
Definitely thought the cat one was really weird but it was still enjoyable 👍
Great review! I hope these stories get adapted in the Netflix adaptation of The Sandman if it gets more than one season.
After Jupiter's legacy, The Sandman would fair better on HBO Max.
@@jaredgarcia8638 Or Amazon. They already hosted the Good Omens adaptation and are now doing Anansi Boys
@@Mandibularmenace good point. I only mention max because The Sandman is technically a WB property
Little late... but its been leaked a episode of A dream of thousand cats and Calliope :)
I suppose the save dream the cat had talking to Morpheus was the same dream the small human prophet has when she started to preach about dreaming.
Sad for the Siamese cats kittens
Now were getting to he good shit
Can you make next video Neil Gaiman the black orchid?
Dream of the thousands cat is most basic thing in DC(thoughts make gods in dreaming even presence)
Now Sandman is out in Netflix
Thumbs up if you're watching after season 1 of The Sandman.
I’m really enjoying the Sandman content. Do you know if the Batman story will be on HBO Max? More importantly, how many episodes of Sandman are in the works?
I don’t think Batman Long Halloween will be on HBO Max. I’m Canadian and we don’t have HBO Max here, so I’m not 100% on that.
Supposedly they are planning 11 Sandman episodes to start.
Just A Request:v
After Batman The Long Halloween, and Sandman
Maybe you should cover Irredeemable
it has a cool story though
I think one day I’ll get it.
@@dannymalt ok bro
I feel like suicide is frowned upon in our society because some people want to view it as a sin. We can’t judge others for committing suicide when we ourselves don’t know what they went through. Some levels of suffering just can’t be overcome and the trauma overtakes your entire life. Also, think of how many would have been saved if all those mass shooters chose to kill themselves over killing everyone around them. Element girl knew who she was and what she wanted. I can respect that about her and Death never judged her for it.
may you all be blessed by the Musai
Instead of Love death and robot. Sandman is essentially love death and dream. Hopefully Netflix will pull it off.
That's jupiter legacy.
Long Halloween 🎃🎃🎃🎃..😁😁😁😁😁😁👍👍👍👍👍
I am an avid worshipper of Bast, the Cat Goddess
Have you checked out the annotated Sandman, if you own them 👍
I didn’t want to drop the money on it, but I’m curious what kinds of things it points out, and if it would help me point out more interesting factoids for my Sandman videos.
You read the summaries too 🤣🤣
This is my third video on your channel, and I am loving your narration of the sandman series, So 7$ worth coffee from me on patreon for this month.
Glad you’re liking it. Be sure to check out some of my other series after you finish Sandman.
Not to tell you what to do but you might aswell do “overture” 😅 it baffled me as a youngen
I honestly don’t like Overture. Lol. I tried to read it when it came out years ago and bailed. I forced myself to read it now in preparation for the Sandman Volume 1 video. It’s too hard to follow and weird.
would you pls make a series on lucifer book on your channel.
Ugggghhhh that voice.
👍👍
Danny just when i was getting into Sandman im going to have to wait :/ lol ...but Batman is cool tho

What I thought is that if groups continue to " dream " of supremacy over other groups then it'll just be a never ending cycle
There is truly nothing new under the sun super woke even in the eighties.
Probably the most boring volume so far imo.
No offense, but this isn't an explanation; it's a summary... You're not actually explaining much of anything laid down in the story. Just giving people an excuse not to actually read the comics by telling them what happens piece by piece. You're even reading off some of the dialogue. I clicked on the video hoping for something insightful, but all I got was reiteration of a story I've already read.
42:24 ... It's Nuclear not Nucular... 🤦♂️ Stop breathing trough your mouth!
HIS NAME IS NEIL GAIMAN AS DAI ,SAI,GAI,DAIMOND..... NOT GAYMAN ...HIS NAME IS GAIMAN...PLZ NO MORE GAYMAN PLLLLLZ
so GUY phonetically then
@@notworththeeffort830 th-cam.com/video/SlJljIjDkeI/w-d-xo.html
No - it is "Gay Man". Mr Richard is just one of the "with authority" mispronouncers. The video I linked to is Neil himself explaining how to pronounce his name.
Calliope Kali O Pay that's how it's pronounced she's the 9 Thalia is her sister the muse of comedy
so just a thought about shakespears son. the fae do replace the children with changelings who are sickly and die. the way I took it was that the boy left and the changling boy is what died and his son his happy and loved in the realm of the fae
