The Sandman is ruling Netflix’s global charts again despite all the noise around its creator Neil Gaiman. The series, based on DC’s comic series, is still pulling in millions following its return with season 2 and within days of its release on July 3, it climbed to the number two spot worldwide between June 30 and July 6.

It only fell behind The Waterfront, which was sitting at the top for weeks. However, with 5.3 million views in its first few days, the response was far from quiet.

Neil Gaiman Controversy Doesn’t Slow Down The Sandman’s Popularity

According to Screenrant, this is not the first time The Sandman has done well. Even season 1, which dropped much earlier, ranked number 9 on the global charts just a few days back. As of now, The Sandman holds the 3rd position just behind the South Korean sensation Squid Game (#1) and Under a Dark Sun (#2), per Flixpatrol.
