Sandman #8, First Appearance Of Death, On Auction At Heritage
Sandman #8 is THE issue from the run to own, and this is the time to buy it. Arguably the most talked-about part of Netflix TUDUM this past fall was the debut of the first trailer for the series adaptation, and the one character that fans want to see more than Morpheus is Death. Hell, the first question most asked about the upcoming show was "Who is playing Death?". The answer is Kirby Howell-Baptiste, and now fans are gobbling up Sandman #8 everywhere. Always a tough get anyway; on auction at Heritage Auctions today is a CGC 9.4 copy, a very nice one indeed. Currently sitting at $160, you can assume this will end higher, but it might still be an excellent, affordable copy to get. Check it out below.
