What some didn’t expect is that Death is played by Kirby Howell-Baptistereprising her role as Perpértua, introduced in ‘Sandman‘.

Despite ‘Dead Detective Boys‘ work based on the escape of Edwin Paine (George Rexstrew) and Charles Rowland (Jayden Revri) of Death, the character’s appearance was a pleasant surprise.

It’s worth remembering that Death only appears in episode 6 of the 1st season of Sandman, but it was enough to win the hearts of fans due to its sentimental plot and gentle personality.
