Vertigo did something cool I have’t seen in a long time. The aired a commercial for one of their current books, Sandman Overture. I saw it while catching up on last weeks American Horror Story: Coven. The video can be seen here and is done in the motion comic format. Hopefully it will bring in some of the non-comic readers who read The Sandman. It highlights the fact there hasn’t been a new Sandman comic in 17 years.
