Dead Boy Detectives as a property made its television debut as a brief part of an episode of the now finished Doom Patrol. It's basically Hardy Boys with ghosts.
It's since been recast, retooled and rehomed on Netflix.
Honestly, if this wasn't a DC Comics adjacent property, it
would be on my "Not a chance in Hell" list.
The big claim to fame here is "from the author of The Sandman". For a WHOLE LOT of comic book geeks, that's a huge plus and buys a ton of goodwill upfront.
For me? Not so much. Never read Sandman and found the tv series dull and forgettable.
As I have a personal "watch it all" commitment to comic book television and movie properties, particularly DC and Marvel, I'll give this a watch. I'm not expecting much.
