#59 - Sandman Mystery Theatre
Manage episode 417350345 series 3450502
One of the very first DC Comics characters of the Golden Age, THE SANDMAN - aka Wesley Dodds - fought crime and injustice in 1930s New York City armed with nothing but his wits, a gasmask, and a gun that fired nonlethal sleeping gas. Decades later, the first issue of Neil Gaiman's legendary "Sandman" series would reintroduce the world to Wesley Dodds, now explaining that his motivations and equipment were inspired by Dream himself. The Sandman spinoff series SANDMAN MYSTERY THEATRE from DC's Vertigo Comics imprint would run for an impressive 70 issues from 1993-1999, spearheaded by writer Matt Wagner and a revolving door of superstar guest-artists.
The first half of this incredible run is currently in print as "Sandman Mystery Theatre Compendium One" - please buy it and let DC know you'd like them to finish off the series with Compendium Two!
Closing song: "Enter Mr. Sandman" by Moes Haven, from the album "Explorations in Madness" - https://open.spotify.com/album/6MADKPFSNBWShSCp5ZktzH?si=o4vf1ax5S2WgmIq9TQ3Bqw
