DC Showcase: Death

Death from the Sandman Universe is one of the best characters of all time. Imagine taking the idea of death itself, not the harbinger of death nor the guy with scythe playing chess, but the actual concept of death, an entity that represent and embodies death (and life) of all things and make this character into a goth sexy young girl and make her more compelling and interesting than the entire MCU+DCU put together. How do you do this? Well, you let Neil Gaiman write it of course.

I do not think this little video fully 100% capsulate this character, mainly because this is a (very) short story and you cannot really convey the ful scope of death in such a short time. Nor do I think this is absolutely perfect 10/10, but this is still excellent and brilliantly done. This both bring tears, hope and sadness at the same time. Excellent work and I hope they can bring the upcoming Sandman TV show to this or higher levels.

As a Neil Gaiman fan and a fan of the DC Vertigo Sandman universe, I was really surprised to know of this film's existence. This story was very touching and spoke to me on a personal level. I loved every minute of this and hope to see more of Gaiman's work adapted to the screen.

Kept within the spirit of The Sandman while offering up another angle to the character of Death. Would love to see more stories told with these characters and this animation style.

Beautiful peice of art through and through. Wonderful story and incite into these challenges.

Absolutely loved it. Beautifully animated in a style of Manga and written by one of my favourite comic book writers, J M DEMATTEIS. I would say that this is definitely one of the best shorts from DC so far. (IMHO) I won't give anything away, I highly recommend you watch it. It can be found on both the Blu-Rays Wonder Woman: Bloodlines and Batman:Death In The Family.
