Honestly, I found the entire sequence with Death to be rather comforting. She's there to offer a kind word during one of the most traumatic transitions of life no matter who you are. The baby is particularly heartbreaking, but she handles it with as much kindness as she can offer. If there's anything after death, I really, really hope there's someone like that to help us through it.
Hob's story is one of my favourite in The Sandman world. I'm a sucker for stories about people who don't die, particularly when they're not depicted as having any other special powers. The movie The Man From Earth, Ashildr/Me from Dr Who, Vandal Savage from DC Comics are prime examples of this. They have no knowledge of the future, they're still living through history and have to navigate the world like anyone else, but they end up with a unique perspective on human society and the concept of life in general.
Thank you for watching
Johanna Constantine isn't immortal, this one is the ancestor of the "modern" one we saw in episode 3.
When asked which episode he was most looking forward to people seeing, Neil Gaiman said "episode 6, but only after they've earned it by watching episode 5."
Yep! I understand that now 😅. This episode was so great! Thanks for watching.

The closest thing they had to that was (modern) Johanna saying "Grandmother told me Dream always had a raven." But they should have made this clearer that this was her great-great-(x)-grandmother here.
Thanks for watching
I was going to wait until the end.of the reaction but I had to come and say "Thank You!" for listening to the feedback. Tis really appreciated👍
You’re welcome! We are a small production team and sometimes in all the scrambling to get things done we rush through processes. Welcome to the Culture Slate family! Hope to see you around in more comment sections in the future
There are seven Endless. We've either seen or know about five. We also know that one walked away from his job and abandoned his post; that's why Lucien said that Dream "wouldn't be the first." That's the one they call "the prodigal."
As for the letter D, each of the Endless has a lot of names. In all the time they've existed, all the names they've had, sooner or later there would have to be a language in which the words for their functions all start with the same letter, just from random happenstance. It just so happened it was English.

My favorite episode and two stories ♥
Thanks for watching
That's not present-day Johanna Constantine. It's her ancestor. Dream mentioned to Lucienne already having had dealings with the Constantines in the past, and present-day Johanna told Dream that her grandmother had told her Dream always had a raven, so her family has been telling stories about him for generations ever since this Johanna met him in the late 1700's. Neither Johanna Constantine is immortal or hundreds of years old.
Thanks for the comment and for watching
If you listen close all the other bar patrons are all talking about the same subjects each century.
Well now I need to watch it again!
Thanks for watching
They showed the mom in the original comic, not showing her was wise imo. The death of the baby was rough enough
Welcome to our channel
The original comic run started in early 1989 so Dream's imprisonment was much shorter and he managed to keep his appointment with Hob. (They kept the date of his capture and the meetings the same because they tie in to real historical events and people. Even Pushing Lou was a real person.)
I think him missing the appointment makes it better though and gives it even more weight, with Hob thinking he really did overstep Dreams boundaries.
As far as Dream's siblings. The non-spoilery list is in no particular order Death, Destiny, Desire, Delirium, Despair and "the Prodigal", whoever that is.
Destruction
@@Siranification they clearly know who it is, they mentioned the comic.
But it's a spoiler and it's never mentioned in the show, so why did you come and say their name??
@@Siranification =🗑
Thanks for watching
I watched a live "watch party" with Neil, Kirby and others, where they mentioned they did actually film the mum's reaction (as it was in the original comic panels), but they decided it was too harrowing and so cut it from the episode.
Oh really?!
It’s easy enough to judge people in the past by moral standards of the day, express disgust … I wonder people today don’t know what they think or do is wrong when there will be some judgmental person a hundred years from now regarding them with scorn.
We should judge the past, and strive to not keep making what we realize are mistakes, especially the atrocious ones. However, I agree that it should be done with consideration that living in such a different era would most likely give us different mindsets. We don’t have to like it, but we can and should learn from it, and know the things we think is just how things go will be judged after us.
If you are talking about slavery, owning people is wrong hands down. Thinking of anyone as lesser because of the color of their skin is wrong. People even then knew this. It was not a collective moral standard based on a time period. People put up with it because it was a common practice but there were many who didn’t agree with it and knew it was wrong.
Even if it was normalize in the context of the setting the story takes place in, the very real impacts of slavery and colonization are still felt to this day. A lot of those old colonial systems weren't even abolished until more than a century ago, and countless people around the world are still haunted by the social economic fallout of such brutal exploitation, from the legacy of white supremacy to systemic poverty.
Its not like we're talking about shit that happens during ancient egypt, that no longer leaves huge material impact on people's social economic lives. This idea that we can just brush off slavery as "oopsies the opressors didn't mean to do bad things in retrospect" comes from a place of profound ignorance and especially insulting when it comes to media criticism. Like come on, maybe just keep it to yourself next time how people's expressing disagreement with the idea of slavery bothers you...
@@ccarter008 The younger Hob knew it was wrong too saying "where no man is slave" when talking about how great England had become.
@@ccarter008 You're still putting modern values on it. Yes, today we understand it was wrong. In the 1800's, many people understood it was wrong. But Greece? Rome? Sparta? Pretty much every culture before the Renaissance had slavery in some form and considered it normal. Yes, even Europe - serfdom was slavery with the illusion of rights. Hell, the Bible goes so far as to set the price for selling your own daughter into slavery. Yes, to us, slavery is abhorrent, but back then? Back then it was Tuesday. And never forget that even today, slavery still exists. Even here in the US: slavery is still permitted of convicted felons, and many of them are used as such.
That’s a really major problem with SIDS (thus having the word sudden in the name). A baby can seem to have no problems, but medical science (for all its successes) still has much to figure out, and some very subtle condition may be undetected and unpredictable. It’s truly tragic and frightening. Fortunately, more and more conditions are being detected, so they can be addressed before this happens.
Hob had at least questionable morals from the start. He even admitted to being a bandit and mercenary. I think just about anyone can realize their wrongs, and change their ways for the better. Some may take longer than others, some may take longer than that. It makes me wonder how many of those who have engaged in slavery might have come to this realization if not so limited to a relatively brief life, and how long it would require. The part of me that likes giving the benefit of the doubt wants to say many, perhaps even most, but, of course, I can’t say that with any real assuredness. Hob is obviously one who took longer, but he got there, though with some heavy, haunting regrets, I don’t doubt. Thank goodness, he had Morpheus there to advise him against continuing that awful business. That could be a downside to effective immortality. Think of all the mistakes and regrets a person could accumulate in an average lifespan. That could very well exponentially grow if given a vastly longer time. Looking back on such remote history is one thing, but what if you were also there at the time, being an integrated part of it, and it being part of you?
Your humanity was on display in this reaction, and admirably so, I don’t mind saying.
Thank you!
"Hardcore vampire vibes".... loool!
You can say it... c'mon... VOLTURI 😏
Thanks for watching
Sadly, the comic does show the mother's reaction to the baby.
I love the overdramatic breakup in the rain because the man Dream has been regularly seeing for 500 years finally asked "What are we?"
Agreed!
Hob doesn't get eternal youth, he was destined to die that day but death didn't take him that day... Hence his aging stopped...
Thanks for watching
