Not just them. Dream sees humans as his children, he also sometimes see them as inferiors. Later on though when the ruby brakes, when he talks to death and is done with the vortex. He sees humanity for what it is. Destiny is also friendly, since he let's you see destiny and even change it if you want to. So you can be the master of your own fate, if you're fine with flowing your destiny at the same time. Otherwise though Despair and Desire are very undesirable to meet or talk to.
@@outstretchedwings heh id love to hangout delirium for the sheer insanity. Have a beer with destruction. Hangout with death, i think death would love to go see a movie! Then just sit and talk with dream and destiny.
This has to be the most detailed video about the sandman. Thank you for putting so much into it. Although Death is my favorite from the Endless there is something interesting about Delirium. Maybe because we only get glimpses of her past and reasoning. I don't know, the idea that too knowledge can make somber (destiny) but too much of it can make you insane is just interesting.
@@brianlindee220Once again, go b!+ch to the literal original writer, Neil Gaiman...Your writing grammer is grade-a atrocious, mate. The melanin amount in their skin has nothing to do with the essence of the character, and does not change any of the original story elements. Those are the same talking points racists use. But you already knew that *wink*.
I feel bad for Death, she has to deal with Supers that keep ressurecting themselves. One moment she has their souls and another moment she lost it. It can be annoying over time.
Naw she is The Death, she doesn’t care because when its all over each of them will be in her realm. She saw the death and mayhem that the black lanterns were causing and said it looked like a fun time.
A fanfic I once read with Death talking to Wonder Woman while playing chess. Death: My brother once told me all of you are part of some big cosmic story.
"To be conscious at all is to be conscious of time, and of time's arrow: of destiny. And to know that is to know that time must have a stop: to imagine death. Faced with the certainty of death, we dream, imagine paradises where it might not be so: "Death is the mother of beauty," wrote Wallace Stevens. And all dreams, all myths, all the structures we throw up between ourselves and chaos, just because they are built things, must inevitably be destroyed. And we turn, desperate in our loss, to the perishable but delicious joy of the moment: we desire. All desire is, of course, the hope for a fulfillment impossible in the very nature of things, a boundless delight; so to desire is always already to despair, to realize that the wished-for delight is only, after all, the delirium of our mortal self-delusion that the world is large enough to fit the mind." - Frank McConnell, from the Preface of The Sandman: Book of Dreams
Thank you, that excerpt not only ties together, but elevates the concepts in this series, perhaps even ennobling human folly. The Wallace Stevens quote is perfect.
This is why some Orthodox philosophers have argued that there’s no memory as we know it in Heaven, as Theosis will have opened them up to something far greater than mere “consciousness”. This is with the certainty that we’ll ALL be resurrected. Something better will replace Time in the Silver City.
I like though how in the beginning it really shows how they didn't see humans as anything more then puppets specially with the dude that despair challenges dream to save from despair and neither truly cared about the dude and in the end only cared about who wins
The Endless are so interesting, and it would seem that each of them, govern both the dark/evil/bad and light/good/nice aspect of their realms, even without realizing it.
I definitely want to see more of Desire and Delirium. Now I can't get over the fact that he died... he died! Anyway, thank you for the in making this vid and introducing all the characters. I enjoyed every part of it and didn't skip anything. Keep it up, mate.
@@ryanhoward5844 good idea, except that I don't have the comics to read, and the comics are not in the library where I could go read them, and I can't get to Barnes & Noble where the comics might be, and I can't download the comics to read them.
Thanks for the refresher. I read most of Sandman long ago. I’d forgotten some things and did not know others.The concepts Gaiman introduced here were astounding. The inevitability of it all. So dope
Damn, I wasn't expecting this : this video actually spoiled what will happen to Dream in the end of the Netflix series... FeelsBadMan I was happy to learn more about the lore tho. Thanks for that :)
I really appreciate your thorough and thoughtful representation of desire’s gender. Your videos are extremely informative and you can tell how much love and passion goes into each one. Thanks for your work!
So, the original Despair came up with the idea of Superman’s fate as a work of art? Her well kept hair is suggestive of a MUCH more organized and creative version of the force as well.
Rao cheated a little bit, however, with his Daxamites. I mean that’s a lot of work for just one little fruit, however “beautiful”. He got together with his twin brother Dax, and told him to look after these offshoots. He figured, as long as the survivor doesn’t KNOW about them, the despair will remain complete, and Dax can isolate them by training them to be paranoid bigots.
just something i wanted to point out about each of the endless, thier appearances are metaphor's for thier domains destiny is chained to his book because everything is bound to fate, and he's blind because no one knows what the future holds. death is meant to be pale because she's a representation of the absence of life, both before life when who you are as a person hasn't yet been decided, meaning your affectively a blank canvas, and what happens after life, no one knows. the reason she has an eye of ra tattoo is because the symbol represents all the sense, and death always knows when it's your time dream has white skin because he's a blank canvas meant to be colored in and made by the imagination of humans, and he has stars in his eyes because dreams are things of fantasy where you can see anything destruction is a tall and strong man dressed in warrior's attire, because he is meant to be an embodiment of power, chaos, and destruction, and soldiers are the ones who destroy their enemies, not their lords. desire looks like neither a man nor a woman because it's meant to be desired by everything, not just one part of the universe, and it has golden eyes because gold is something valuable that we pursue despair is overweight and pale because she isn't ment to have a healthy appearance, since she is shaped by things that most people agree is imperfect or flawed, she's meant to be something that is rejected by society as a burden dellerium is an ever shifting figure, because if she had one form, than she makes sense for a moment, but she's meant to be an embodiment of chaos and dwindling sanity
The reason why Dream is terrible in his relationship as it feeds “Desire”, where Dream does not want to be controlled by. Desire & Despair despise Dream, because of people’s dream, people tend not to desire nor to despair anymore. Desire caused Corinthian to desire in living in the Waling world & to kill people, thus forcing Dream to walk on earth. Desire also pushed Roderick Burgess to want his dead son to be back, thus imprisoning Dream. Despair’s realm grew, while Dream is in prison, while people died in their sleep & Corinthian is killing & inspiring the Collectors. Desire impregnated the sleeping Vortex while Dream in in prison, & Dream almost killed Grandniece of Desire & Vortex that could cause his life. Desire sets everything in motion for Dream’s demise. In Season 2 Desire will set the motion by influencing Lucifer to want to be with humans, where Lucifer will handed the Key of hell to Dream, where he will face demons & entities that wished the key for themselves to rule Hell.
Yes, to add, I think it’s more of a philosophical fight. Desire only wants people to have desire from it alone. However, we only truly desire because we derive it from our dreams. That may have hurt desire’s ego.
They could've been 8, having the infinity symbol ∞ as their family/nature sigil. The 8th could have been Dread, the personification of fear and terror, also inspirer of courage. He/she/they could have been one of the eldest siblings, probably the one closest to Death, and Night's favorite child. Dread could have been the one who taught Dream how to create nightmares, and also who accidentally turned Delight into Delirium after a very ugly fight.
@xijinping6633 I didn't say that .I just say that the series is pretty good considering that usually, series are not representing the comics rights in most cases.
Death is my favourite of the Endless, and I hope they get her right. I'm also worried about how they'll handle the Corinthian in the Netflix show, because they seem to be building him up quite a bit, but he isn't supposed to be a cool or powerful villain, he's supposed to be a failure, which is important because he's also heavily tied with serial killers.
As much as I want to see the Netflix adaptation, I’m worried they’ll drop it after the second season like Altered Carbon. I also can’t wait for Act 3 on Audible.
Its more of DC and Warner bros product than Netflix so I hope they will not drol it...if Netflix somehow cancell it I hope they will find other streaming network
The titans... old primordials... treacherous are those realms, rarely do alliances form and rarely do they achieve actual success... but part of the flow of consciousness, some falling into these planes while there are others in the process of rising, nothing, not even nothing is forever.
Amazing video, the endless are among the best characters I have ever read. Definitely subscribing P.s can you tell me the background music, it's sounds beautiful 😁
i just finished the netflix's adaptation. oh man, it's great but i wish they didnt change most of the storylines/events amd especially the characters from the comics. regardless they did an amazing job creating this series. i hope on the following season they will stick to the original stories
Honestly I’m just learning about the Endless through this video, but from what I’ve gathered from this video I feel like the Netflix adaptation is pretty good. I feel like they stuck to the story really well. What exactly was inaccurate? Genuinely curious 🧍🏾♀️.
If they were omnipresent then wouldn’t Dream have known where his missing objects were and who had them without help from others or having to search? And if they are immortal why would they have a rule about not being allowed to kill family?
We've been able to see Death in ep 6, I really wanna see Destruction as well and have this dream to see him portrayed by WWE star Sheamus...he'd be magical in that role.
He burnt off a few pages from Destiny's book, in an encounter they had. That was actually meant to happen as it warned Lucifer of Fenris's existence. Free will versus destiny is one of the main themes in Lucife, anyway. And while Lucifer may be unable to "beat" Destiny as a representation of inevitability, he can very well beat the personification of Destiny, regardless of the fact that Destiny will get resurrected afterwards. At least until life exists.
Well no he can't beat him, Destiny just acknowledged that he can destroy that body, but Destiny is as much Destint as the book of destiny. The book of destiny is a personification too. And if Lucifer can erase himself by writing himself out of the book, which he need the book for. Then what stops destiny himself from doing the same? Nothing but his will and respect for nature. Lucifer can't even resurrect his bride, never-mind harm an endless. The authors of lucifer and Neil gaiman and Destiny agree with this.
@@connormaine8178 He cannot, however, create something out of nothing; for this he needs the Demiurgic force of his brother, Michael, and later his niece, Elaine. Together, Michael and Lucifer are capable of creating anything from living beings to entire multiverses. Lucifer is even stronger than the Endless, and the only known beings able to rival or surpass his power are Michael and the Presence. Get your facts straight.
@@connormaine8178 an endless can be replaced if they die same as with dream when he died. Personifications can be killed. What Neil was talking about is destiny as a whole as a concept not the personification.
@@connormaine8178 read the damn comics bruv The presence literally gave him a key to start his own universe which he alone can rule and dictate what happens.
@@connormaine8178 your comment made me realize that you didn't even read the comics. As stated by freaking death herself that she doesn't have power over Lucifer.
I wonder what actress they'll cast for Delirium, I can't think of anyone off the top of my head. I absolutely love the show. Watched it in 2 nights. I love the fantasy/horror/sci/fi combination of genres.
Based only on this video, I like Destruction's character and the concepts of their opposites. It seems that he is the friendliest, sensible and the most likeable due to his nature. It felt like he wanted to be the instrument of change because he wants to keep fighting his "destructive" nature. I like to think that he had a dog since he left and misses his family and gave it to Del so she won't be as lonely.
It seems it only counts as killing family if it's done directly. The whole point of Desire's plot is that they manipulate the chain of events so that it's Dream's choices much later down the line that (knowingly or not) ultimately cause his doom.
These guys sounds like DC's version of the Eternals, but the Endless are much, much more powerful and influential. Although this video was recommended I'm glad to watch it through and through. Definitely a good introductions to DC's lesser known characters.
That's a actually a great example. Nobody gets that the Eternals weren't originally made to be in main Marvel continuity like the endless and it shows. They are practically demigods with so much power but because the variety of gods or other meta beings out there with so much made up crap, writers tend to either demystify the Eternals or try to combine them into a wider canon which usually is just messy. Much like the endless, besides a few characters, they really should be separated so they can tell their own stories with few limitations.
27:37 Death - Nativity Destruction - Novelty Dream - Reality Destiny - Liberty Despair - Sanguinity Desire - Felicity, or animosity Delirium - Sanity I tried my best 😅 since all the Endless start with "D" i figured the opposite would end with something the same, i chose "ty"
@@g04234 but as the creator with more control over the adaptation he didn’t do anything to stop it in fact he criticized fans who were angry with the change completely missing the point
@@arishemghoul9571 not really, lol. They are high-outer, and they can never ever truly die that's why they're called the endless. Not even their God the presence can erase them since they are necessities of creation.
I was curious about the rest, but now that it's on the Sandman stuff... I don't really want to listen as I've seen the show's first season and don't want spoilers for the rest. In any case, I'm working on a fanfiction and I elected to bring Dream of the Endless into an episode/chapter. as the episode/chapter is centered on nightmares, it is the perfect moment to introduce Dream. though, this version is pretty different considering I'm having them be set in a SPN universe. While different, I am doing the best I can to retain what makes Dream the person they are. I am using the netflix show as my source of lore, so I don't know much. if interested, read Lucifer: A Supernatural Adventure. None of you have to, though. free will and all that.
Since we're getting an second Season, may I suggest casting Jenny Boyd(Legacies) as Delirium, if she is to be casted for Season 2. I thought she was great in the show and we never got to witness her heretic side more. But we saw her mental instability front and centered and it was great. She will be a great fit for The Sandman's Endless sister. Just an suggestion
In the series you kind of think that the actress that plays Rose Walker is Delirium. Mainly because she has colorful hair, and looks younger than she appears.
@@DCnez also can u talk about the real god in dc.? Also the author now says geb is lucifer Ie he is light bringers and presence is the projection of source There is so many things i have doubts in dc lol telegra.ph/file/6f54243b316a196efaf65.jpg

From a human perspective, Death and Destruction seem like the most pleasant Endless to hang out with. Let that sink in a minute
You need to remember they also their opposites, so opposite of death and destruction is life and creation respectively.
Not just them. Dream sees humans as his children, he also sometimes see them as inferiors. Later on though when the ruby brakes, when he talks to death and is done with the vortex. He sees humanity for what it is. Destiny is also friendly, since he let's you see destiny and even change it if you want to. So you can be the master of your own fate, if you're fine with flowing your destiny at the same time. Otherwise though Despair and Desire are very undesirable to meet or talk to.
Not to mention, Delirium is that friend of yours who is spacey as hell
I think it's because death and destruction are inevitable. You cannot escape it.

Glad you like them. Thank you for watching.
Sturridge/Dream and Matthew remind me of Vampire Hunter D and his hand being. Wonder which came first. Loving the show, I am hope.
just something i wanted to point out about each of the endless, thier appearances are metaphor's for thier domains
destiny is chained to his book because everything is bound to fate, and he's blind because no one knows what the future holds.
death is meant to be pale because she's a representation of the absence of life, both before life when who you are as a person hasn't yet been decided, meaning your affectively a blank canvas, and what happens after life, no one knows. the reason she has an eye of ra tattoo is because the symbol represents all the sense, and death always knows when it's your time
dream has white skin because he's a blank canvas meant to be colored in and made by the imagination of humans, and he has stars in his eyes because dreams are things of fantasy where you can see anything
destruction is a tall and strong man dressed in warrior's attire, because he is meant to be an embodiment of power, chaos, and destruction, and soldiers are the ones who destroy their enemies, not their lords.
desire looks like neither a man nor a woman because it's meant to be desired by everything, not just one part of the universe, and it has golden eyes because gold is something valuable that we pursue
despair is overweight and pale because she isn't ment to have a healthy appearance, since she is shaped by things that most people agree is imperfect or flawed, she's meant to be something that is rejected by society as a burden
dellerium is an ever shifting figure, because if she had one form, than she makes sense for a moment, but she's meant to be an embodiment of chaos and dwindling sanity
The reason why Dream is terrible in his relationship as it feeds “Desire”, where Dream does not want to be controlled by.
Desire & Despair despise Dream, because of people’s dream, people tend not to desire nor to despair anymore.
Desire caused Corinthian to desire in living in the Waling world & to kill people, thus forcing Dream to walk on earth. Desire also pushed Roderick Burgess to want his dead son to be back, thus imprisoning Dream. Despair’s realm grew, while Dream is in prison, while people died in their sleep & Corinthian is killing & inspiring the Collectors.
Desire impregnated the sleeping Vortex while Dream in in prison, & Dream almost killed Grandniece of Desire & Vortex that could cause his life. Desire sets everything in motion for Dream’s demise.
In Season 2 Desire will set the motion by influencing Lucifer to want to be with humans, where Lucifer will handed the Key of hell to Dream, where he will face demons & entities that wished the key for themselves to rule Hell.
Yes, to add, I think it’s more of a philosophical fight. Desire only wants people to have desire from it alone. However, we only truly desire because we derive it from our dreams. That may have hurt desire’s ego.
hmmm good point
They could've been 8, having the infinity symbol ∞ as their family/nature sigil. The 8th could have been Dread, the personification of fear and terror, also inspirer of courage. He/she/they could have been one of the eldest siblings, probably the one closest to Death, and Night's favorite child. Dread could have been the one who taught Dream how to create nightmares, and also who accidentally turned Delight into Delirium after a very ugly fight.
That's what Despair is. The personification of hopelessness, anxiety, fear. Maybe read a little more on her.
You just described Despair.
I think the Sandman series was representing them very good .

@xijinping6633 I didn't say that .I just say that the series is pretty good considering that usually, series are not representing the comics rights in most cases.
Fun fact: the alien race called the Gaim in Babylon 5 wear a breathing apparatus design after Dream's Helm, and their name comes from Neil Gaiman.

I'm also worried about how they'll handle the Corinthian in the Netflix show, because they seem to be building him up quite a bit, but he isn't supposed to be a cool or powerful villain, he's supposed to be a failure, which is important because he's also heavily tied with serial killers.

Lucifer can't even resurrect his bride, never-mind harm an endless. The authors of lucifer and Neil gaiman and Destiny agree with this.
@@connormaine8178 He cannot, however, create something out of nothing; for this he needs the Demiurgic force of his brother, Michael, and later his niece, Elaine. Together, Michael and Lucifer are capable of creating anything from living beings to entire multiverses. Lucifer is even stronger than the Endless, and the only known beings able to rival or surpass his power are Michael and the Presence. Get your facts straight.
@@connormaine8178 an endless can be replaced if they die same as with dream when he died. Personifications can be killed. What Neil was talking about is destiny as a whole as a concept not the personification.
@@connormaine8178 read the damn comics bruv The presence literally gave him a key to start his own universe which he alone can rule and dictate what happens.
@@connormaine8178 your comment made me realize that you didn't even read the comics. As stated by freaking death herself that she doesn't have power over Lucifer.
22:28 reminder for myself once I’m done moving into university
There’s a great collection of Death’s stories (many do not feature Dream) “The Absolute Death”. Fantastic read.
Cool
Definitely a thousand times better than Marvel's Eternals
I like eternals, but seriously tho
This comment is just asking for trouble smh.
In b4 someone says Thor solos
@@marioellisjr7860 lmao, what comeback would marvel fannies have? It's both so in the comic and the show
Eternals could never..
I wonder what actress they'll cast for Delirium, I can't think of anyone off the top of my head. I absolutely love the show. Watched it in 2 nights. I love the fantasy/horror/sci/fi combination of genres.
Like how they all start with d,s very satisfying
I just notice that
I’ve got to check out this new sandman.
"Cursed Alex with a Neverending nightmare" that... is much better than the series.
Galing! Very comprehensive storytelling.
My favorite is Despair, I hope they change up a bit that boring portrayal that showed up briefly in the series.
yes they should give her more screentime and more interesting plots
Based only on this video, I like Destruction's character and the concepts of their opposites. It seems that he is the friendliest, sensible and the most likeable due to his nature. It felt like he wanted to be the instrument of change because he wants to keep fighting his "destructive" nature. I like to think that he had a dog since he left and misses his family and gave it to Del so she won't be as lonely.
quite right
You know if desire really was behind the death of dream that fool killed family. Sounds like old uncle Neal left room for another story.
It seems it only counts as killing family if it's done directly. The whole point of Desire's plot is that they manipulate the chain of events so that it's Dream's choices much later down the line that (knowingly or not) ultimately cause his doom.
These guys sounds like DC's version of the Eternals, but the Endless are much, much more powerful and influential.
Although this video was recommended I'm glad to watch it through and through. Definitely a good introductions to DC's lesser known characters.
True
That's a actually a great example. Nobody gets that the Eternals weren't originally made to be in main Marvel continuity like the endless and it shows.
They are practically demigods with so much power but because the variety of gods or other meta beings out there with so much made up crap, writers tend to either demystify the Eternals or try to combine them into a wider canon which usually is just messy.
Much like the endless, besides a few characters, they really should be separated so they can tell their own stories with few limitations.
@@Killgore-ip2yq
But still character interactions are fun. Imagine Dream meeting the Justice League. Wouldn't that be fun?
I loved the video! thank you!
You are so welcome!
27:37 Death - Nativity
Destruction - Novelty
Dream - Reality
Destiny - Liberty
Despair - Sanguinity
Desire - Felicity, or animosity
Delirium - Sanity
I tried my best 😅 since all the Endless start with "D" i figured the opposite would end with something the same, i chose "ty"
cool
@@DCnez oh- wow....I didn't expect you to respond 1 year after a video have been uploaded lol
I’ll never forgive Neil for denying us hot goth death
Blame netflix
@@g04234 but as the creator with more control over the adaptation he didn’t do anything to stop it in fact he criticized fans who were angry with the change completely missing the point
@@jayxx_slayer9456 ok i didn't know about his reply my bad
@@g04234 it’s fine most people don’t talk about it they just accept the new direction I just miss the old design honestly
@@jayxx_slayer9456 same I just hope they don't destroy the original scenario
Oh thank you so much of doing this video. Can you please do a video about The Spectre and all his version and powers?
Design,
the Architect ruler of matrix dimension,
husband of the Oracle
that's a good idea
DC steping up their game they now introduce The Endless while Marvel introduce Eternity as one of the Members of the Abstract on Thor:Love and Thunder
Eternity would beat the endless
@@arishemghoul9571 not really, lol. They are high-outer, and they can never ever truly die that's why they're called the endless. Not even their God the presence can erase them since they are necessities of creation.
I was curious about the rest, but now that it's on the Sandman stuff... I don't really want to listen as I've seen the show's first season and don't want spoilers for the rest. In any case, I'm working on a fanfiction and I elected to bring Dream of the Endless into an episode/chapter. as the episode/chapter is centered on nightmares, it is the perfect moment to introduce Dream. though, this version is pretty different considering I'm having them be set in a SPN universe. While different, I am doing the best I can to retain what makes Dream the person they are. I am using the netflix show as my source of lore, so I don't know much. if interested, read Lucifer: A Supernatural Adventure. None of you have to, though. free will and all that.
Simply Outstanding!!! binged it
Since we're getting an second Season, may I suggest casting Jenny Boyd(Legacies) as Delirium, if she is to be casted for Season 2. I thought she was great in the show and we never got to witness her heretic side more. But we saw her mental instability front and centered and it was great. She will be a great fit for The Sandman's Endless sister. Just an suggestion
cool
That would be nice
Watching this because of the cameos on The deadboy detectives!!
amazing show right?
27:48 I wonder why satisfaction is the opposite of desire, I would've thought "hatred" or smth
Subbed. Love it. Another channel did a reaction to this.
Thanks for the sub!
Nicely done, very interesting
Many thanks!
Netflix will definitively follow up after The Sandman with the other Endless characters
Juicy!!!
Very interesting thank u. I thought delirium was less madness and more manic ... an augmented form of delight and more destructive and confusing
Great video! Thank you for sharing!!
Wouldn’t these Endless be the fallen Angels of old, chained to time & space until the fiery destruction of the Universe they corrupted ?
Beautiful thanks for explaining everything
Thanks for watching!
Who would be the most powerful among the Endless?
I don't know why, but I'm want to see Destiny being played by Giancarlo Esposito or Morgan Freeman.
That would be interesting
Yes especially Esposito
In the series you kind of think that the actress that plays Rose Walker is Delirium. Mainly because she has colorful hair, and looks younger than she appears.
good observation
Can't wait for them to have their own series (fingers crossed)
I have enjoyed watching ...
Thank you so much for watching and your support for the Sandman
Thank you
Who is the Prodigal? Sandman asks Death if she's heard from him.
The endless who once filled the role of Destruction is now the Prodigal
@@mark1A100 Thank you.
Thank you !! Great video
Glad you liked it!
Do Earth 11 next the gender bender universe.
The Joker may be present in Delirium's world.
Yes pls make a video about other characters in the sandman universe
I'll put that on my list
FMA-B homunculi vibes :)
This was sweet 🎂

I thought the contention for Nada was that she wouldn't lay with Dream. Hmm. 😁🥰
I can't wait for The Sandman Season 2...😢
me too
Please do the DC Bombshells Earth, I love that series but they it seems to mostly ignored.
interesting... I'll try to read some the Bombshells
@@DCnez Who do you think is the most powerful DC characters?
Also what do you think of the endless we see like Morpheus being aspects of dream?
I wanna say The Presence is the most powerful DC character. that's just me
