Director Kevin Smith lauds Neil Gaiman and The Sandman TV show in a heartfelt Twitter message. Smith is an award-winning director and actor, best known for films such as Clerks and Chasing Amy. The Sandman is a recently-released Netflix series based on the graphic novels by Gaiman, which began publication in 1989. The Sandman stars Tom Sturridge, Boyd Holbrook, Patton Oswalt, David Thewlis, John Cameron Mitchell, and Gwendoline Christie.

The Sandman comics had a massive fan base for years, so when Netflix announced the development of The Sandman television series, there was unsurprisingly a lot of hype for the series in advance of its release. So far, critics and fans alike have generally seemed pleased with The Sandman season 1. The Sandman has stayed fairly faithful to the comics, appealing to fans of the original graphic novel series, including Smith.
