** spoiler alert ** 
 Another terrific installment in The Sandman series. Neil Gaiman is a lil' genius tbh 
 This trade kinda screams GIRL POWER and I loved every bit of it. Barbie is no longer able to Dream; she lives in the same house as the transgender woman Wanda, the lesbian couple Hazel and Foxglore and the crazy witch Thessaly .... and George. Well, that is one set of diverse characters and those ladies have to set out on an amazing adventure... 
 ...because one day Martin Tenbones enters the WAKING to give Barbie a quartz amulet; Barbie is now able to return to her Dreamland and has to oppose "the Cuckoo" - an evil force that is trying to kill this land. The other girls are left off in the Waking but when they realize that evil forces are at play Thessaly summons the Moon and they are able to enter Barbie's dream and kill "the Cuckoo". 
 At the same time Barbie realizes that "the Cuckoo" is actually her childhood-self and just wants to be free. The little girl makes Barbie destroy her quartz amulet, this action summons Morpheus who then dissolves the land - "the Cuckoo" is able to flee into another reality. 
 Morpheus grands Barbie one wish and she wishes a safe return for her and her friends. Back in New York City they discover that Wanda (who got left behind when Thessaly summoned the Moon) got killed in the storm that erupted by the powerful magic. Barbie attends her funeral and is sad to learn that Wanda's parents are super conversative and buried her in her former "male" body and put her male birthname on her grave. In a moment of compassion for Wanda Barbie alters her tombstone by pulling out her lipstick and writing "WANDA" on the grave in bright pink letters. I loved it! 
 The arc ends with Barbie dreaming of Wanda in her perfect female body together with Death, Dream's sister. 
 I really enjoyed it because it was so diverse and had lots of twists that I didn't see coming!
