"He is not my friend, he is my brother. And he is an idiot." "... I'm just feeding the birds."

[@TackleOneOne]

Implicit line from that boy: "You sure that's your bro? He's white! Irrelevant."

[@LiterallyAli.]

She was an awesome character in the series. Great motivation, great background, and a pretty well-written character. She is a top 3 character for me, tbh.

[@chrise.6667]

And let's also say the actress.... In every project she is in she SLAYS! She is extremely talented!

[@Phillip_Fry]

She is black. Next.

[@PACNYY]

I always remember when he sister says "I like for them to see a smiling face when it's time to go."

[@luisperez-lt3xc]

There are so many personifications of death but out of them all I think this version fits death the best an old friend that we see at the start that over time is lost to the back of your head but when you meet again at your end she greets you with a smile and a warm smile and caring hand to help guide you to that next place honestly just perfect

[@pabloc8808]

iirc Gaiman said his depiction of Death is just what he'd like to meet when his time comes. The same was true for Pratchett's Death in Discworld.

[@ameyagokhale5123]

The Way she Yells at him and he's just gawking, it's like a Child being told off by his mother

[@Alacaelum]

Worse... being told off by your big sister.

[@JohnSmith-bn5mi]

She played Death PERFECTLY.

[@lazuruswolf6668]

And to think people thought she would be a horrible death.

[@somefuckstolemynick]

Yeah, she killed it.

[@vforwombat9915]

she touched dream. put a hand on his leg. i'd have to go back and check, but i'm pretty sure she never touches anybody in the entire series except for when it's time. other than that, her skin is darker than i would like. but so is Dream's. i can't get over dream being all flesh colored w normal eyes. instead of all white with black holes for eyes. couldn't they have at least put some makeup on him to make his skin SLIGHTLY whiter? also taller. i woulda preferred they cast a taller actor. so between the two, Death is much better cast.

[@KenS1267]

@@vforwombat9915 I think she does touch the other Endless. She might even touch Tim Hunter, once. But she cannot touch mortals.

[@vforwombat9915]

@@KenS1267 all my old sandman GNs are packed away atm. except, i remembered, Doll's House, which had the Sound of Her Wings in it. so i just checked, and i was indeed wrong. she touches Dream twice in that issue.

[@jayfeather965]

He’s being such a little brother in this scene

[@juancarlosmartinezcarranza4153]

this episode was something else. It gives that thrill of joy and sadness that only Neil Gaiman can give. It really was an incredible adaptation of Sandman.

[@shiningnight12]

This was definitely one of my favorite moments in SANDMAN

[@jonathanroot5969]

One of the greatest episodes of TV ever! 🔥🔥🔥

[@asavannah7439]

I totally agree. When she said to the baby who died in her crib something like: "Sorry, this is all you're getting" Me: 😭😭😭😭😭😭 It deserves an Emmy ❤

[@jonathanroot5969]

IKR!

[@vforwombat9915]

one of the greatest single comic issues ever. sandman MIGHT might make my top ten all time comics, might not, but the issue this episode was based on makes my top ten single issues.

[@elijahsteele9170]

I do like this more chipper version of Death. Every other personification I’ve seen, it’s like this grim, no-nonsense scary looking guy and here’s this cute girl with a kind disposition.

[@williamaldred335]

I recommend looking up the Discworld series. Death in that is weirdly comforting despite looking the stereotypical grim reaper.

[@patharasown]

Check out the film version of Hogfather...

[@matiasrocha317]

The Sandman is the best show of 2022 in my opinion . And one of the best DC shows ever made 👏👏👏 .

[@eltonjohntubola3212]

Death is just so insanely above her siblings that rules imposed on them are not applicable to her. She is so overpowered her siblings know better that to mess with her. She is stronger than Destiny, her older brother and is only slightly weaker than their parents Father Time and Mother Night.

[@mrrd4444]

All this and she's still so kind and compassionate... An amazing character.

[@edwinjusto5739]

Everything about this show was fantastic, i hope if theres a death it is as kind and welcoming as she was, the concept of her offering a friendly smile at the end of ones life is beautiful

[@mrjones2721]

This was the scene that got me into Sandman. I just regret she didn’t bounce the loaf off his head the way she did in the comic.

[@Landis963]

I imagine that was annoying to do in multiple takes. Probably not a coincidence that that the camera cuts as the bread passes back from Death to Dream.

[@tyler6097]

[@matteus3887]

This is my favourite episode of this series

[@JoshSweetvale]

3:00 Death may or may not be colleagues/work friends with Pratchett's DEATH. They've unionized. Marvel's Death and the one from Suoernatural are already on board.

[@stefansauvageonwhat-a-twis1369]

No Franklin thats not what she meant! get OUT OF THERE lol

[@Alacaelum]

But look at both sides before crossing.

[@shanerasmussen5225]

Doesn't matter where he goes, when his time comes, she'll be there.

[@Mittens_Gaming]

Poor Franklin.

[@stefansauvageonwhat-a-twis1369]

I really recommend watching the DC showcase: Death, for more adaptations of this version of Death

[@hippomancy]

I was so enamoured of the comic version of Death when it was first released, I was perhaps for the first time bothered by "re-imagining" of a character. but this actress knocked it out of the park. not as in love with Death as Thanos (comic book version), but admiring the work. wish I could have seen more- at least the graphic novel adapted...

[@notavailable2590]

There’s also an audio version of The Sandman.

[@chriszhu408]

​@@notavailable2590I liked the production value behind it. Death casting didn't stick with me though, I don't think I'll ever picture hearing any of the endless family members speaking with American accents.

[@Spidey0.5]

Masterpiece of video

[@rhyswilliams26]

Best episode of the series

[@TuberoseKisser]

Such a good episode

[@heasydragon]

The bit I love in this wee scene is when the little girl scampers through the pigeons - Dream just *glares* at her, whilst Death just grins. I love that. It's such a nice wee moment.

[@phastinemoon]

I literally just realized that, at least in the comic, Dream was imprisoned for 80 years… of COURSE he hasn’t seen Mary Poppins!

[@danieldickson8591]

Shouldn't be too hard for him to conjure up a Blu-Ray or DVD player, or a VCR.

[@monicad99]

he also has access to the world’s collective unconscious, no? he sees everything. 😳

[@miyadeen5867]

I love this scene I really love this show how deep they go into the god background and story of that I really enjoyed it I can’t wait for season 2

[@Ny-kelCameron]

Great show!!!

[@ezequielperez2224]

Excelent scene magnific ❤🔥

[@franklinqueiroz2130]

This and the Dinner episode were top tier TV. It's been a long time since a TV show made me care and feel so much. Maybe since GoT.

[@SkepticalChris]

In my mind, I always pictured Amy Lee, from Evanescence as the perfect person to play Death, but hats off to Kirby Howell-Baptiste for truly rocking the role so well!

[@BlueBoy0]

In the comic she beans the loaf of bread off his head.

[@quranbooker6655]

3:25 good reflex 😲

[@callmemarvel298]

I really want to see Destiny and Destruction. Please Season 2

[@lyconxero457]

This show was so good. A second season will definitely entice me into subscribing to Netflix again.

[@PeterOlson]

This series isn't perfect but they absolutely nailed the casting for nearly every character. Stephen Fry, John Cameron Mitchell, Gwendoline Christie, Patton Oswalt and Kirby Howell-Baptiste all nailed.

[@HavikLord]

Waiting for season two 🔥

Franklin: The worst that can happen is she will say 'no'.

O, is that bluray international?

[@michadabrowski3120]

Kirby Howell-Baptiste was great as Death, but honestly, I couldn't get into this adaptation "The Sound of her wing". This is very subjective but: The story never felt to me like Death trying to cheer up Dream on purpose., it was about Dream following Death on her job, and seeing how she conducts her purpose, he regains his. And the poem is at the center of it and is one of my favorite moments of the whole series. And all of that feels missing for this. I will however admit that Hobbs story felt like an improvement over the source.

Dumb question: Why didn't Death come for Rodrick Burgess when he hit his head? She would have seen Dream and he would have seen her.

[@mattiaboscherini4001]

Death was there. It is Dream that did not contact her because he was too stubborn to ask for help.

[@mattiaboscherini4001]

Death is simultaneously everywhere someone dies, but can choose whether to be seen or not by others. And she knew that Dream would be too stubborn to ask for her help. Also the Endless do have limitations in where and how they can intervene in the mortal world. Dream was captured under the existing rules, like it happened to his fiancè Calliope, the muse (also seen in the series, where she tries to ask for the Furies to intervene, but they cannot exactly because Calliope was trapped according to the ancient rules)

[@ProWrestlingForever22]

DC has become completely dead. There’s nothing to look forward to anymore with all new shows getting cancelled

[@handsuporillshoot381]

Why did the producer of this show bother to cast an accurate Morpheus but not an accurate death or John Constantine? Was it to because they were more focused on checking off their diversity quotas?!
