In this noir collection, millionaire Wesley Dodds becomes the
Sandman to fight injustice in 1930s New York City, going after
kidnappers, blackmailers and predators who prey on rich socialites.
The year is 1938, and the world is holding its breath-mesmerized by
the onrushing storm that will soon engulf it in fire and steel. In
New York City, one man's sleep is filled with tormenting visions of
the evils that mankind visits upon itself, compelling him to act.
And so, by night, Wesley Dodds lays aside the trappings of his
inherited wealth to roam the shadows as the Sandman, armed with a
tranquilizing gas gun and driven by an unrelenting sense of
justice. Haunted and obsessed, the Sandman moves through a
decadent, post-Depression landscape, stalking the predators who
hide themselves beneath society's callous indifference to the weak
and vulnerable. No one sees him at his work until he chooses to
reveal himself-no one, that is, except the woman who is destined to
be the light to his darkness.
Baker Street, the center of England's punk movement in a London few
would ever know, a life even less would ever see. Where being
different is the rule, ratting the gambling vice of a city's
underground, and death is often around the next corner. Here is
where mystery, intrigue and suspense are more than a game to the
residents of post-Victorian London, it's a way of life. Now the
cobblestones run red with blood as a series of murders terrorize
the night. But as Sharon Ford may soon find out, sometimes the
solution is more costly than any crime.

delve into the haunting world of the Bureau for Paranormal Research
and Defense. Led by fish-man Abe Sapien, firestarter Liz Sherman
and a bizarre roster of special agents must re-establish the
B.P.R.D. after Hellboy's departure and defend the world from occult
menaces!
