Artist's Comments

Of course, this is Death, (maybe) the oldest of the Endless from Neil Gaiman's sublime Sandman comic. Okay, I'm gonna get this outta the way right now - ever since 1997 I have been TOTALLY IN LOVE with this character, as I think are a whole generation of goths, emos and romantic types. I'd consider myself pretty sad if she wasn't just about the coolest, hottest girl in comics.

For those who don't know, she really IS death, but she's a nice death. Think of her kinda like the Discworld death mixed with Siouxie Sioux, along with a generous lashing of Abby Sciutto from NCIS (yeah, I really like her too). It's just as well too - her little brother Dream is such an emo ... ;)

Death of the Endless is, of course, copyright of Neil Gaiman and Vertigo/DC Comics

Oh boy - this is something else I would TOTALLY recommend you read - Gaiman's Sandman is perhaps the best comic book EVER published. (An' that's saying A LOT.)

Simply an awesome depiction of her, man.
:icongrigori77:
Why thank you! :D I'm still nowhere near as good at drawing her as Chris Bacchalo, but the man is the true Death benchmark. I try my best, and I must admit I'm REALLY PLEASED with this one.

Oh no, this is about as good as Western comics get. Indeed, Jill Thompson actually did a kinda manga-ka comic based around some of the events of an early Sandman volume, specifically revolving around Death. It was almost unbearably cute. And she does the most adorable chibi style Endless art with Death, Dream an' family as little kids. Just Google Little Endless, you should find 'em easily.
