Campbell (illustrated by Lars Brown)

The Worlds’ End storyline is contains five fantastic stories told by five people stranded in the Worlds’ End pub. One of these stories is told by Jim, a young sailor who was aboard a ship that was washed against some rocks and to shore during a storm at sea and the crew found themselves at Worlds’ End. Jim’s story recounts a particular event that happened while aboard the Sea Witch. One of the members of the Sea Witch crew was a man named Campbell.

Campbell was a member of the Sea Witch’s crew. Campbell was a Scottish engineer who was in charge of the engines that pumped water out of the bilges. The Captain would call him Donkeyman because prior to engines, donkeys would be used to remove water from the bilges by walking on a treadmill.

Campbell is introduced in Sandman # 53 page 6 and panel 7.

Once again Lars did a fantastic job with this character.

Club Goer # 2 (illustrated by Max Rugers)

When Sexton and Didi (the human incarnation of Death…for a day) set out in search of Mad Hettie’s heart they spend an evening wandering around New York City. They ride around in a taxi and as they pass a club called The Undercut, Didi decides she wants to attend the concert playing there, which happens to be Foxglove’s first concert.

This man is one of the people waiting outside in the line as Sexton and Didi go to the club.

He is in Death: The High Cost Of Living # 2, page 8, panel 2. He is standing near a window and behind Sexton.

I always liked this character. I think he was drawn to look a little like Brad Pitt.

I think Max did a great job with this character.

Sleeping Sickness Patient # 9 (illustrated by Lars Brown)

Between 1916 and 1988 countless people succumbed to the Sleeping Sickness.

Many of the victims were admitted to charity wards to care for them during their illness.

This man is one of the patients who were taken to the charity ward. He was in the same room as Ellie Marsten in July 1939.

He can be seen in Sandman # 1, page 18, panel 1.

Once again Lars did a great job with this incredibly obscure character. I like that Lars let him dream about food…I know that’s what I’d probably dream about if I was asleep for 72 years.

Kyrielle (illustrated by Ron Chan)

Kyrielle is one of four citizens from the Necropolis Litharge trapped in World’s End during the storm.

She is always seen with Klaproth, Eucrasia and Petrefax, although her relationship to these characters is unknown.

Kyrielle appears several times throughout the Worlds’ End storyline.

I really like Ron’s drawing of Kyrielle. She definitely has the whole gothy Necropolis thing going on.

Resident Of The Dreaming # 19 (illustrated by Max Rugers)

This character is one of the many residents of The Dreaming that gathered to hear Morpheus speak prior to going to Hell to rescue Nada in the Season Of Mists storyline.

This background character is definitely awesome. I can’t help but wonder if he is somehow related to the Nybbas or the Great Spider who both appear in The Kindly Ones.

Max did an amazing job with this character. I don’t know if you can tell from the scan, but there is a definite texture to this character’s body. I really like it.

As with all of Max’s portraits there is a drawing on back of this one. The back portrait is pretty cool as well, so I thought you’d want to see both.

Here is The Resident Of The Dreaming…

and here is the painting on the back...

Dead Man # 110 (illustrated by Lars Brown)

When Orpheus goes into the underworld to rescue his wife he presents himself before Lord Hades and Queen Persephone and sings them a song about grief and love. As he sings, the dead begin to cry and float in the air.

This Dead Man is one of the dead who began to float during Orpheus’ song.

She can be seen in The Sandman Special # 1, Page 35, panel 2.

Lars seems to really have a knack for drawing dead people. He did a fantastic job with this character.

Dead Woman # 16 (illustrated by Max Rugers)

Wow. Max did an amazing job with this Dead Woman. I really like the colors he chose and the line work. Even the angle is unique and fun. This is a lovely portrait.

This Dead Woman is one of the many dead people who are in Hades as Orpheus attempts to rescue his deceased wife, Eurydice.

She can be seen in The Sandman Special # 1, page 33, panel 1. She is to the right.

Here is the original panel in which she appears as well as Max’s portrait of her.
