Artist's Comments

Azrael was described in a pretty vague way in "Reaper Man" so I had a lot of leeway with this image. All I had to go on was that he is a being so large that a supernova would appear as just a glint in his eye. Other than that all we know is that he is the Death of universes, the being whom all other Deaths are just a pale reflection of. Azrael remembers the future as well as the past, and as a result, he is galactically bored. All this considered, I think I did the character justice and am pretty pleased with how this one turned out.
Hope you like it.

Marty Beller agrees


Simultaneously geeky enough and Canadian enough to get this joke

Christ on a bicycle! Okay, NOW I have a mental image of Azrael. So glad I watched you!

And every time I looked I thought you were there
But it was just my imagination

Not sure about the horns and spikes, but this is your interpritation so screw what I think. They do pretty well to indicate his incredibly high cosmic status, and there seems to be a mish mash of culture in his clothing; the robe and the armour (or bone structure?). I love that bored "Ho hum" look. You've either captured the moment he decides to follow the events of the Death of the Disc being fired or the sentamental I REMEMBER WHEN ALL THIS WILL BE AGAIN finale. Excellent job with the dying universes captured in his pressence. The high light has to be the expression and pose, contrasting the otherwise impossing and slightly terrifying creature that he is. Great job.

You cannot see the back of your own head. Except in very small universes.

Awesome. I loved that book.

Ah love! could thou and I with Fate conspire
To grasp this sorry Scheme of Things entire,
Would not we shatter it to bits—and then
Re-mould it nearer to the Heart’s Desire!
:iconbreranansi:
Brilliant! And this is traditional rather than digital? What were you working with?

This was drawn tradionally.. but colored digitally... maybe it was misfiled, and belongs in the digital section.
:iconreliquiae:
This is amazing!!! I love the colors and the amused expression on Azrael's face!!! :+favlove:
