COMICS TIME

The Sandman #39

Separated from his father and uncle, Marco Polo wanders the , trying to find his way back to the caravan. Eventually, parched, he collapses in the sand. He remembers that his mother once told him the legend that when he sleeps, the sandman pours magic sand into his eyes, and that is what he rubs out of them in the morning.
