George R.R. Martin Praises Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman

Critics along with fans all over the world are enthusiastic about Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman. Amazingly, it looks like another legendary author is a fan of Gaiman’s latest work, and that is no other than Game of Thrones creator George R.R. Martin.

In a recent blog post by Martin, he revealed that Gaiman sent him an advance copy of the Netflix series and binged it “faithfully” while in quarantine. Sufficiently, it seems Gaiman acquired a new fan.

It’s absolutely delightful to know that Martin is a big fan of Gaiman’s latest project. On top of that, it appears that the two are obviously good friends after Martin’s revelation that Gaiman sent him a full copy of the series prior to its official release, meaning to say that he’s probably one of the few lucky people handpicked by Gaiman himself to have a first look at the show. Now that Martin is a few days from the highly-anticipated release of HBO’s House of the Dragon, did Martin also send Gaiman an advance copy?

Netflix hasn’t yet announced an official release date for The Sandman Season 2. Meanwhile, The Sandman Season 1 is available to stream on Netflix.
