I like that Granada Holmes not only portrays Holmes as a real person with real feelings, but it also shows how he hides those feelings. He's stood behind in this scene, not letting anyone see him cry.
I love, too, that we see multiple instances in Granada Holmes of Holmes' love of the arts.
The fact that Kerry Shale played as Jean-Paul Valley in the 1994 Knightfall audio drama, and later played as Mayor Hady in the scrapped WB Batgirl film, the same mayor that Michael Washington Lane held hostage during Judgement on Gotham…
The Good Doctor, the female serial killer in the convention trio does try to warn Corinthian that Jed needs to stay away from Funland ( chubby bearded creep) She sees Jed sitting with him.
The Good Doctor and Nimrod [the bald guy and the lead planner] Look at each other with alarm.
The Good Doctor immediately says
"You may want to advise the kid to stay clear of the conventional areas”
There’s a touch of concern,
A very worried look from Nimrod, which he tries to smile through,
A very poignant look from the Doctor.
They are both in their own ways are trying to tell him that Funland is a Predator without actually saying it, causing Corinthian to take note and separate Funland from Jed.
All of them at the convention are sadistic killers but even some of them have a moral code......
NOTE: THESE DESIGNS ARE OUTDATED I WILL REMAKE THEM SOON
Here’s my official lineup for the HIT era steam team! I’m super pleased with my designs for all of them and I think that they fit their personalities well! I have updated some things since then (this drawing is from July) but everything is still pretty much the same up till now.
They are a unique species that look human but share engine traits (grey skin, higher demand for water, and enhanced strength and speed). They all work as conductors and general workers on the railway.
My AU also takes place in the mid 1960s so technology is very limited and is still very old fashioned.

The adventure begins is a big comfort watch for me but there's something funny to me that like. When I went on a binge of the entire series because I watched the specials between seasons this was my literal first exposure to James as voiced by Rob Rackstraw
And like after listening to all the later stuff I absolutely dig it, it's so on point, but the fact that the first sentence I heard, in the new voice, one much higher and more nasally compared to the more smooth and snooty vibes from Kerry Shale, was "BUT I'M NOT SMALL–"
I just realized the actor who played Nimrod (actually meaning mighty hunter, Bugs Bunny was being sarcastic, folks) in The Sandman Netflix series was Abel (and various other voices) in the Sandman audio drama.
So for overlapping casts we have:
Neil Gaiman (the author) - Narrator of The Sandman audio drama / The dead dream crow in The Sandman Netflix series.
David Tennant - Loki in The Sandman audio drama / the kindly cat owner in The Sandman Netflix series.
Michael Sheen - Lucifer in The Sandman audio drama / The Evil cat owner in The Sandman Netflix series.
James McAvoy - Morpheus in The Sandman audio drama / The blond human prophet in The Sandman Netflix series.
Arthur Darvill - Shakespeare in The Sandman audio drama / Ric Madoc in The Sandman Netflix series.
Niamh Walsh - Nuala in The Sandman audio drama / Ethel Cripps in The Sandman Netflix series.
Kerry Shale - Abel (and other characters) in The Sandman audio drama / Nimrod in The Sandman Netflix series.
objectively i think a very insane way to consume media would be to pick a random side character in something you just watched and then trawl through their entire filmography before picking the next random actor
eg. kerry shale after watching him in the sandman because
