Literary References

Someone here pointed out a visual homage to Sandman somewhere but I don't remember because I didn't recognize it myself.

I take it you're referring to this post (and a few others in the same vein) about page 36:

One thing that really excited me about this page was that the first frame with Wanda vividly evoked one of my favorite scenes from Sandman. The light and shadow, the camera angle, the eye glint, and even the hair were dead ringers for a shot from at least one of the comics. I believe it might have been near the end of Season of Mists, the "Oh, Azazel." Panel from the showdown at the end of that storyline. Maybe not. But unless the Sandman shot was itself derived, it's a clear homage to one of the Sandman artists.
