In it, the lead character describes death returning with the sound of beating wings. * Death is referenced in original ''The Sandman'' penciller Sam Kieth's ''[[The Maxx]]'': "They're all necro-nerds and Sand freaks. They think death is romantic. Death is hard and cold and ugly, not some cute chick" as quoted by the character Sara, as the comic panels focus in on a colored poster of Death herself. * In the television series ''[[Roseanne]]'', posters of Death are seen on Darlene's bedroom walls, and a small postcard of Death hung for a time on the family refrigerator. * Death made a brief cameo in ''[[Nodwick]]'' #33, greeting the warrior Yaeger during a near-death experience. * Death is also mentioned in Jorge Jaramillo's novel ''Vallecuervo'' (México, 2010). Úrsula, the main character, is looking for her brother. In an old attic she discovered he was living in, she finds an assortment of comic books: "While I was looking at that Love and Rockets TPB I sensed I was being watched. To my surprise it was Her. Yes, Her. Death. Of the Endless. The cute chick in black dress from Neil Gaiman's comics. She was there, standing still, looking right into my eyes. I moved forward, I touched Her face. Dust. I folded Her and took Her with me (along with those Rockets and some Rick Veitch's books)". * Death has a brief animated cameo in the 2017 fan-film, ''Sandman: 24 Hour Diner'', based on #6 of Sandman. In an original sequence to the story, she collects the nightmares of the deceased patrons of the diner and rescues her brother Dream. * The [[Virgin New Adventures|Virgin Books' New Adventures]] ''[[Doctor Who]]'' novel series introduced a manipulative and generally morally ambivalent female incarnation of Death (or rather, as later revealed, one of several [[Eternal (Doctor Who)|Eternal]]s masquerading as cosmic principles). In ''[[Happy Endings (novel)|Happy Endings]]'', she quotes from the original ''[[The Books of Magic]]'' mini-series. Although the bulk of the novel was written by [[Paul Cornell]], the section featuring Death was written by author [[Neil Penswick]], as part of a chapter written in tandem by the authors of the previous 49 novels.<ref>{{Citation|last=Scoones |first=Paul |title=Wedding Notes: An Annotated Guide to Happy Endings |date=November 1996| url=http://nzdwfc.tetrap.com/archive/tsv49/endings.html| access-date=1 December 2008}}</ref> * Death is described and discussed by American filmmaker [[Kevin Smith]] during his interview with [[Joe Rogan]] on [[The Joe Rogan Experience|The Joe Rogan Experience podcast #1123]], in the context of how he dealt with his heart surgery. While on the operating table he thought about the Death character, and how in an issue of The Sandman, she was asked by an older man: "''That's it? I did all these things. I worked my fingers to the bone. What did I get?''", to which Death replied "''You got what everybody gets. You got a lifetime''".<ref>{{Citation|last=PowerfulJRE|title=Joe Rogan Experience #1123 - Kevin Smith|date=2018-05-30|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aC7p0Upkh34#t=3h3m8s| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180531004727/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aC7p0Upkh34&gl=US&hl=en| archive-date=2018-05-31 | url-status=dead|access-date=2018-07-11}}</ref> * The lead character of the music video for [[Pearl Jam]]'s "[[Do the Evolution]]" is said to have been inspired by Death herself. ===Audio drama=== Death appears in the [[Audible (service)|Audible]] adaptation of ''[[The Sandman (podcast)|The Sandman]]'', voiced by [[Kat Dennings]].
