Can Superman Sandman Saga be read before Fourth World?

Hi, if this isn’t the right forum to ask this, let me know.

I noticed in Superman 235 that there is a reference to someone important who appears in The New Gods and The Forever People. I was planning on reading Fourth World soon. Are there references in Sandman Saga that will spoil the Fourth World comics, or are these some cute “advertisement references” that I shouldn’t worry about? In other words, should I wait to read Sandman Saga until after going through Fourth World? Thanks.

Darkseid isn’t involved in the Sandman Saga.

Don’t worry about it, you’re fine.

You can read the Superman Sandman Saga as a stand alone story. The artwork by Curt Swan and Murphy Anderson is quite possible the finest rendition of The Man of Steel in the 80+ year history of the character.
