The Sandman Season 2: Netflix Reveals First Look At Dream & Desire As Filming Resumes – Looper
Netflix’s “The Sandman” offers a fairly faithful adaptation from the comics, with episodes drawing their storylines directly from one or two comic stories. When Season 1 ended (not including the two-part Episode 11 that came out after the fact), Dream confronted Desire. Throughout Season 1, Desire constantly makes trouble for their brother. Episode 10 — “Lost Hearts” — depicts Dream learning that Desire had impregnated Unity (Sandra James-Young) in order to pass the Vortex to a descendant that Dream would eventually have to kill. After learning of the betrayal, Dream tells his sibling not to plot against him any further. Of course, this ends with Desire offering this ominous statement, “Next time, I’ll draw blood.”
It certainly seems like Desire will remain a thorn in Dream’s side, which is going to be a problem because he also made a powerful enemy in Season 1 with Lucifer (Gwendoline Christie). Episode 10 also ends with Lucifer remarking on vengeance sought toward Dream, so it seems like he’ll have his work cut out for him in Season 2.
Seeing how “The Sandman” Season 1 adapts up to “The Sandman” #18 in the comics, it’s a safe bet Season 2 will delve into the “Season of Mists” storyline that encapsulates issues #21 through #28. This includes an Endless family confrontation where Desire taunts Dream regarding how he treated a former lover, which results in him needing to travel to Hell to attempt to free said lover. Given where Dream was left off concerning Desire and Lucifer, it’s a safe bet this storyline will be adapted for the new season, although nothing’s set in stone yet.
