Demon # 62

Here is a demon who is surprisingly NOT in the Hellfire Club, as it seems most demons are lately.

This demon is standing in a crowd of demons as the King Of Dreams searches for his missing helmet.

He is easily missed, but very obviously in the crowd once you start looking for him.

Can you find him?

Demon # 117

Wow....is this guy weird.

This character appears in The Hellfire Club. He's sitting at a table and isn't really very detailed. You'll recognize him by his oversized hands.

Scott gave this character more detail and more life than the original published version.

It was nice of this demon to sit still long enough to give Scott a chance to paint his portrait.

Demon # 131

This demon is in the Hellfire Club and witnesses Choronzon's defeat at the hands of the Dream King.

This demon is close to the stage and has her back turned to the rest of the audience. She's pretty easy to spot.

Demon # 129

This demon is in The Hellfire Club when Agony and Ecstasy take Choronzon away to his ultimate judgement for losing the contest with Morpheus.

Demon # 105

This demon is easy to spot. He is in the Hellfire Club and in the audience when Dream wins the contest with Choronzon.

Scott did a fantastic job with this demon!

Demon # 86

For the next few days I'm going to be posting lots of demons. It seems appropriate since it is October and Halloween is just right around the corner.

This demon is in the Hellfire Club. He's in the background as Chronzon announced the game that he and Morpheus are about the play.

I described this demon as having an "hour-glass head and many eyes."

Robert

At Worlds' End, Mister Gaheris recounted a story he was told by a man named Robert, to Brent, Charlene and the others gathered at his table.

Robert liked the city. He would often walk through the city on his lunch break and enjoy looking at the buildings. In the evening he would walk throughout the city and admire the city at night.

On one particular night Robert saw a glimmering alleyway he had never noticed before and he went down the alley. He found himself in an unfamiliar place, which was unusual since Robert knew every doorway and every alley of the city.

Robert spent a lot of time wandering this city, hoping to find his way back home to the city he knew and loved.

Robert rarely encountered people, but one day he encountered another man who had been trapped in the city for a long time. The old man had a theory about where they were. He told Robert "Perhaps a city is a living thing. Each City has its own personality, after all. Los Angeles is not Vienna. London is not Moscow. Chicago is not Paris. Each city is a collection of lives and buildings and it has its own personality. So if a city has a personality, maybe it also has a soul. Maybe it dreams. That is where I believe we have come. We are in the dreams of the city."

Eventually Robert found his way out of the unfamiliar city.

When Mister Gaheris met Robert he was living in a small village in Scotland. After Robert told his tale to Mister Gaheris he disappeared in the foggy evening explaining that he was afraid of the day when the city might awake...

This is a fantastic chapter from the Worlds' End storyline....very haunting and beautiful and Scott did a fantastic job with his interpretation of Robert. I can't wait to see him explore the other characters in this story.
