Dead Boy Detectives | Meet the Cat King | Netflix

The Dead Boy Detectives have a run in with the Cat King.
Edwin and Charles are best friends, ghosts… and the best detectives on the Mortal plane. They will do anything to stick together - including escaping evil witches, Hell and Death herself. With the help of a clairvoyant named Crystal and her friend Niko, they are able to crack some of the mortal realm’s most mystifying paranormal cases.
Dead Boy Detectives is based on the beloved comic series from Neil Gaiman, and a new addition to The Sandman Universe for Netflix.

Lukas Gage's career got a huge post when around the time of the pandemic, he was doing a Zoom audition from his apartment and the director, not realizing he hadn't muted his end of the call, started negatively critiquing Gage's New York apartment seen in the background! Gage was very affable about the whole thing and posted it on his social media account. It was probably the best thing that could have happened to Gage.

@@lunarcat632 Be careful saying that since Lockwood and Co came LONG AFTER Dead Boy Detectives. These characters were first published in 1991, and had their own comics from 2001. Lockwood and Co first was published in 2013... Sounds like your 'literal recreation' might actually be the original and your fave is the rip off... It's really important to know the facts.

Is there more than one version of Lockwood and Co? Because the version I watched was significantly different to what Dead Boy Detectives is gonna be.

[@Rabaheo]

Dead Boy Detectives is based off a Neil Gaiman series. This trailer really gives more Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency vibes if you're gonna be equating shows.
