Sandman Mystery Theatre

    (Vertigo, 1993-1999, 2004)
™ and ©1993 DC Comics, Inc.

This compelling series is a period piece, set in the midst of the Jazz Age in New York City. To steal a phrase, the city was certainly no safer then, but it was definitely more stylish. The mix of gin joints and socialites, downtown and Chinatown, serves as a perfect backdrop for the central business of murder.

The cast of this mystery theatre presents us with a sea of faces, although an unlikely one seems to keep reappearing: the innocuous, shy countenance of Wesley Dodds. Unknown to others, Dodds wears two faces: his own, and that of the (Golden Age) Sandman. Hidden behind the bulging eyes of a gas mask, and armed with a strange weapon firing gas, Dodds carries out his mysterious plans.
