Airline Security Agent # 2 (illustrated by Anna Hybsier)

In The Kindly Ones, Rose journeys to England after Zelda gives her a message from her grandmother saying that if she goes to her she’ll return her heart (which is a reference to the final chapter of The Doll’s House, where Unity took Rose’s heart to assume the roll of the dream vortex).

Rose goes to England and on the flight she sits next to a guy who smells sour and unwashed and is reading a pornographic magazine.

When she gets off the plane, she is stopped by a customs security agent who looks through her personal belongings. The creepy guy walks past her as the agent is looking at her lacy underwear.

This Airline Customs Agent appears in Sandman # 62, on page 1, in panel 5.

I love this portrait. Max’s approach to this character feels really sympathetic. I’m not sure if feeling is created because of the colors used in for the dead woman of if her positioning, her gaze turned upward that gives me a sense of hope and sorrow.
