‘The Sandman’ Spinoff ‘Dead Boy Detectives’ Adapts Neil Gaiman’s Comic as a Zany Teen Procedural: TV Review
The first spinoff of Netflix series 'The Sandman' features two teenage ghosts investigating paranormal mysteries in the Pacific Northwest.
“ The Sandman,” Neil Gaiman’s classic supernatural comic turned Netflix series, is a sweeping epic in which abstract concepts like Dream (Tom Sturridge) and Death (Kirby) take human form, traversing Earth and the astral plane to settle matters of metaphysical importance. Although Gaiman was directly involved in adapting “The Sandman,” “Dead Boy Detectives” has been delegated to Steve Yockey, most recently of “The Flight Attendant” — another project backed by power production duo of Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schecter. Invisible to the living and on the run from the authorities who’d yank them out of purgatory and into the afterlife, Edwin and Charles offer their services to other spirits, who hire them to figure out why their formerly quiet seaside oasis is suddenly crowded with suicides or investigate a case of demonic possession.
