The golden shadows of 1930s noir wrap around the Sandman — his gas mask gleaming and fedora tilted low — as he looms over a second figure on this beautifully atmospheric cover by Gavin Wilson, Richard Bruning, and Matt Wagner. This August 1995 Vertigo issue opens "The Hourman," a four-part arc written by Matt Wagner and Steven T. Seagle with interior art by Guy Davis. The haunting cover quote — "...lost in the glare of neon, unaware that the hour had struck..." — sets a mood that feels equal parts pulp thriller and dark poetry.
