Prepare yourself for the trailer for the second and final season of Netflix’s “The Sandman” below.
Volume 1 will release on July 3 with six episodes: “Season of Mists,” “The Ruler of Hell,” “More Devils Than Vast Hell Can Hold,” “Brief Lives,” “The Song of Orpheus,” and “Family Blood”
Volume 2 will follow on July 25 with five episodes: “Time and Night,” “Fuel for the Fire,” “The Kindly Ones,” “Long Live the King,” “A Tale of Graceful Ends.”

The dark fantasy series was cancelled in the wake of the disturbing allegations against Neil Gaiman — who developed and executive produced the show in addition to writing the comic on which it’s based — but the final season promises to bring Dream’s story arc to its conclusion.
After a fateful reunion with his family, Dream of the Endless must face one impossible decision after another as he attempts to save himself, his kingdom, and the waking world from the epic fallout of his past misdeeds.
To make amends, Dream must confront longtime friends and foes, gods, monsters, and mortals. But the path to forgiveness is full of unexpected twists and turns, and true absolution may cost Dream everything.
