About the series
From 2009, DC revived its Golden Age imprint with a one-shot starring The Hangman, a supernatural vigilante wielding a noose that can both strangle and heal. Written by J. Michael Straczynski with art by Greg Scott and Tom Derenick, this issue reimagines the character as a modern-day urban legend in a dark, mystical thriller. Part of the short-lived Red Circle line, it showcases DC's attempt to refresh its public-domain heroes for a contemporary audience.
