Dreamer # 56 (illustrated by Lars Brown)

In Dream Of A Thousand Cats, the Golden Haired Man told his fellow humans that if enough of them dreamed that men were superior to cats then it would become reality because “Dreams Shape The World.”

This man is one of the dreamers who dreamed that he could live in a world where cats were not the dominant species and that men would rule the world.

This Dreamer appears in Sandman # 18, on page 18 in panel 2.

Dreamers are often some of the most difficult characters to draw portraits of because their context within the story is not as solid as most of the other characters. Lars did a great job with this portrait. I love the dream-like background and the character’s wispy hair and relaxed features. He definitely feels like he is in a deep sleep and dreaming.
