Despite that small nitpick over the reaction of some of the real world people, I still loved this issue and Edwards art fits this type of story perfectly.

Anyone who's ignored 1985 as just a novelty series to appease a Millar whim might want to give it another look. There's more going on in these pages than the reaction of some senior citizens to finding the Sandman in their back yard. Read Full Review
The only thing about the book that seems incongruous at this point is the title and setting itself -- the choice of 1985 as the time period seems both arbitrary and irrelevant.
