Daniel Hall
Daniel Hall is a fictional character in the ''Sandman'' comic book series written by Neil Gaiman and published by DC Comics. An infant for the majority of the ''Sandman'' series, he is the son of Hippolyta 'Lyta' Hall and Hector Hall, borne ''in utero'' for two years in the Dreaming. Hector Hall was a perennial DC character, son of Carter Hall (the Golden Age Hawkman), and has assumed many guises during his stay in the DC Universe, and was at one point the Sandman. Lyta was the daughter of the Golden Age Wonder Woman (later changed post-Crisis to a new "Golden Age Fury") and once a superheroine called the Fury whose powers were derived from Tisiphone. When her fellow members of Infinity, Inc. learned she was pregnant, she was forced to resign from the team.〔''Infinity, Inc.'' #42〕 Daniel, at the end of the Sandman series, becomes the new "Dream of the Endless".
==Fictional character history==
Daniel's father, Hector, was a ghost revived by the two nightmares Brute and Glob, in Morpheus's absence; whereafter Lyta and Hector's ghost lived in the dreams of a child, Jed Walker, for two years. Upon Dream's return to the Dreaming, he destroyed the barrier that the two had created around the child's mind from the real Dreaming; imprisoned the two nightmares; released Hector's ghost; and restored Lyta to the waking world. Upon leaving her, Dream revealed that because her unborn son had spent much of his gestation in the Dreaming, he would someday belong to Dream himself. Before Dream faced Lucifer, he paid another visit to the two, and named the child Daniel. In one of the issues in ''Fables and Reflections'', Daniel was regaled with stories by Cain, Abel, and Eve, while Matthew watched. In ''the Kindly Ones'' saga, Lyta incorrectly believed that Daniel had been 'abducted' by Dream, and took her grievances to the Furies, with whom she destroyed much of the Dreaming. Unknown to her, Daniel was abducted by Loki and Robin Goodfellow, and retrieved by the Corinthian and Matthew. At Morpheus' citadel, Morpheus transfers his rôle to Daniel, and allows the Furies to kill him. Daniel, as the new Dream, is an amalgam of a child and the Endless whom he represents. His speech is largely unchanged but it is drawn with black font on a white background (as opposed to the direct contrasting style of the former self). He is still identified by the honorific 'Dream of the Endless'; but refuses the name of 'Morpheus'. He is inexperienced in government of the Dreaming and relies on the raven, Matthew, for advice. This is similar to portrayals in the Bible of 'Daniel' relying on 'Matthew', the Raven of 'Eve'. As Dream, Daniel is a gentler and more merciful lord than Morpheus.
Daniel was named in accordance with Neil Gaiman's decision to give the Endless names or titles beginning with the letter 'D', and after the Biblical prophet who interpreted dreams. Whereas Morpheus almost always wears black, Daniel robes himself in white. Morpheus' garments also tended to be styled with a flame motif, while Daniel's are often adorned with floral patterns. Daniel is unable to convince Fiddler's Green to return to the Dreaming but otherwise recreates the entire land, including its populace, as it was before.
