The Bat-Man: Second Knight #3 p.08 - Enter: Sandman?!? - $1,200

NOTE: These pages measure 16.5" x 21", slightly larger than twice-up size!

A tense and suffocating atmosphere grips this page as Commissioner Gordon navigates the fog-drenched chaos. The opening panels are particularly striking, as Gordon’s appearance in the gas mask and trench coat bears an uncanny resemblance to the Golden Age Sandman. This visual nod to Wesley Dodds adds a wonderful layer of DC history to the noir aesthetic, using heavy ink spotting and swirling smoke textures to isolate the character in a world of immediate, localized danger.

The tension breaks into a view of the facility's interior, which provides a sharp contrast to the intimate, high-stakes close-up of the Scarecrow that dominates the final tier. The rendering on the villain's burlap mask is incredible, with fine, agitated lines capturing the coarse texture of the fabric as he looms over the scene. It’s a menacing conclusion that perfectly frames the antagonist as the primary source of the city's unfolding nightmare!
