Hanged Man # 1 (illustrated by Max Rugers)

In July of 1794 Johanna Constantine is arrested for conspiring against the French government during the Revolution.

The French soldiers search her modest living quarters for the head of Orpheus, which she rescued at the request of Dream.

Louise St. Just interrupts the search and offers to escort Johanna to Luxembourg, which is a prison for political prisoners.

As their carriage travels down the street, they pass a courtyard where an execution is taking place. This man is being hanged.

He appears in Sandman # 29 on page 8 in panel 5.
