In the world of The Sandman existence does not end with death. It doesn’t even end with Death. The end of life is just the beginning of something new. For some that means suffering in Hell, but for two young men it means getting to work back on Earth, specifically at Netflix. Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman spinoff comic series is also getting an adaptation from the streaming site, and the first full trailer for Dead Boy Detectives shows that sometimes the best people to investigate a murder are fellow ghosts.
But being dead doesn’t mean you don’t have anything to worry about. The afterlife comes with dangers worse than dying.
What’s a murder victim hoping for closure to do when no one alive wants to solve your case? Find someone who isn’t alive to investigate. That’s the premise behind Netflix’s upcoming adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s Dead Boy Detectives series. The Sandman spinoff takes place in the same universe, which is why Kirby Howell-Baptiste’s Death of the Endless pops up. The two supernatural P.I.s need to continue avoiding her if they want to stay on the job. But she’s not the only one looking for them. Here’s the show’s official synopsis:
Edwin and Charles are best friends, ghosts… and the best detectives on the Mortal plane. They will do anything to stick together – including escaping evil witches, Hell and Death herself. With the help of a clairvoyant named Crystal and her friend Niko, they are able to crack some of the mortal realm’s most mystifying paranormal cases.
The series stars George Rexstrew, Jayden Revri, Kassius Nelson, and Yuyu Kitamura. (The show is not connected to the version of the characters seen on Doom Patrol.) Dead Boy Detectives will get to work when the show debuts at Netflix on April 25. Assuming something worse than death or Death stops them from investigating before then.
