Wanda's Spirit - The Sandman

In 1991, during New York City’s Hurricane “Mean Lisa,” Wanda died and was met by Death of the Endless, who had come to collect her soul.

As was her custom, Death spoke with Wanda and fully acknowledged her identity as a woman, offering her the respect and kindness she was rarely shown in life because she was trans.

Wishing to say a final goodbye to her close friend Barbie, who had been trapped in the Land earlier that evening, Death appealed to her brother, Dream, who granted the request.

 She appeared to Barbie in a dream—smiling and waving—before departing peacefully with Death. 

Barbie later reflected on the dream, comparing Wanda’s beauty to Billie Burke in The Wizard of Oz, a comparison Wanda would have found both flattering and amusing.
