SANDMAN MYSTERY THEATRE VOL. 2: THE FACE & THE BRUTE SC – (Matt Wagner/John Watkiss/R.G. Taylor) Collecting the second and third story arcs (issues #5-12) from writer Matt Wagner's acclaimed reimagination of the original Golden Age Sandman. In 1939, Wesley Dodds, and his possible paramour (and narrator) Dian Belmont are involved in a series of grisly murders in New York's Chinatown – murders that threaten to reignite the bad old days of the Tong Wars. Then, Wesley and Dian are confronted with corruption at the other end of the social scale. Cover by Gavin Wilson & Richard Bruning. 208 pp. MR.
