Death: The Time of Your Life

In this single-issue prestige format one-shot from 1997, Titan Books presents a meditative tale starring the Endless known as Death, a fan-favorite character from Neil Gaiman's Sandman universe. Written by Gaiman himself with art by Chris Bachalo and Mark Buckingham, the story explores themes of mortality, love, and consequence through the lens of a young musician who makes a fateful deal. Though brief, it stands as a poignant, self-contained chapter that deepens Death's compassionate, humanistic role in the larger mythos.
