Worlds’ End Patron # 15 (illustrated by Max Rugers)

After Brant Tucker crashes the car he wanders through the woods and finds himself at an Inn.

He goes into the inn to seek medical attention for his friend Charlene Mooney. She is taken care of and Brant is given something to drink, which causes him to go to sleep.

When he awakes, he is greeted with a bowl of stew from one of the men working at the inn. This character can be seen in the background of the panel.

He appears in Sandman # 51, on page 9 in panel 2.

There is absolutely nothing known about this character, including what he looks like. When finding the characters from this story I thought he might have been Klaproth, but his posture does not match that of Klaproth or Petrefax.

This is a great portrait from Max. I like that he took this obscure character and gave him personality and life. Max’s familiarity with Sandman helped him create a character that easily fits in with the other patrons of Worlds’ End.
