A theory about Merv
I have a theory about Mervyn Pumpkinhead.  I’d say it’s a headcanon but it’s more a theory. 
Tumblr media
  According to the tale of Stingy Jack (the origin of the jack-o-Lantern) we carve Jack-o-lanterns to drive away old Jack and other wandering ghosts.  The Jack-o-lantern is a protection ward against supernatural threats from entering your home. One superstition has it that if you blow out the Jack-o-lantern before midnight on Halloween you invite evil spirits to enter your home for the entire year.  It’s only safe to blow it out after midnight. Another superstition is if you let the Jack-o-lantern burn out naturally you invite good luck for the entire year and have warded your home against evil for the full year.  It is especially good luck if it manages to burn until after sunrise. In The House with a clock in its walls Pumpkin Jack-o-lanterns are used as protection wards all year long. Jack-o-lanterns, at their heart, are symbols of protection.  Now, because we see Mervyn as a Mervyn Turniphead in The Sandman story The Tempest, it’s very clear that his Jack-o-lantern head isn’t just for the aesthetic. In his Turnip form, that is an old school Irish Jack-o-lantern.  That is a pre-Halloween decoration (use for any time of year) Protection symbol against supernatural threats.
Tumblr media
So even in present day when Mervyn has a modern Pumpkin Jack-o-lantern head, Mervyn is a walking, talking, protection ward against supernatural threats.  He’s not just the groundskeeper or janitor.  He’s a line of defense.   This does explain why Mervyn stands up to The Furies (The Kindly Ones) the way he does.
And this is also one of the many reasons I, myself, love Jack-o-lanterns.  They aren’t just symbols of Halloween. They are kind of comforting in their protective light.

The season of animated pumpkinheads is just around the corner, and Mervyn Pumpkinhead came to us at the most perfect time. 🎃 I love him so much.
Tumblr media
The fact that he was voiced by Mark Hamil makes me like him even more.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And they actually had his body performer (Nicholas Anscombe) wear a pumpkin mask on set! Perhaps to provide a lighting reference for the VFX team?

I want a full behind-the-scenes documentary on the series. I am so curious how much of what we see is practical, based on on-set reference, entirely VFX, etc.

Merv, walking into a meeting: I've got the coffee. I didn't read who ordered what, but I know you all well enought to guess. Here, tea for Lucienne.
Merv, setting a cup in front of Dream: A venti moccha with exactly 85 mililiters of milk, exactly 10 grams of whipped cream, and exactly 3 grams of chocolate sprinkles.
Merv: And for The Corinthian, a single shot of espresso.
Dream: *wordlessly swaps his and The Corinthian's drinks while maintaining eye-contact with Merv*

So staff redetermined that my Dream and Jessamy post should have that Mature label. Despite this, I saw all the love for the post and it touched my heart. I was overcome with emotion. Still am. I appreciate every single one of you.

Summary: For over one hundred years, Dream was held in the basement of Fawney Rig, the house of Roderick Burgess. For over one hundred years, he was kept away from his realm, which, in his absence, began to crumble.
For over one hundred years, Lucienne waited for her lord to return and set right that which had begun to fade.
Another one of my Sandman fics! This one follows Lucienne and the Dreaming without Dream. Enjoy!
(Does contain references to Sandman: Overture that might be a bit spoilery? Contextless, so. Read at your own risk!)

Tonight’s topic for Comic Jam Hawaii’s Drink & Draw was The Sandman by @neilhimself • we discussed how much we loved the Netflix adaptation. I was in a weird mood tonight (probably from drinking the Coke Dreamworld) • I drew Neo & Dream (Morpheus) • Matthew the Raven (from The Sandman) and Happy the blue Unicorn (from Happy! Also on Netflix) both voiced by @pattonoswalt • Real Ghostbuster, Ray Stantz trying to bust Mervyn Pumpkinhead from the Sandman voiced by @markhamill (also the Joker) • and a quick Death • As always, great drawings by the artists and great conversation about the classic from Neil Gaiman #jonjmurakami #comic #cartoon #fanart #neilgaiman #thesandman #thematrix #neo #morpheus #dream #pattonoswalt #happy #matthewtheraven #realghostbusters #ghostbusters #raystantz #samhain #mervyn #markhamill #joker #batmantheanimatedseries #death #copic #copicmarkers https://www.instagram.com/p/ChZJ-NMOgb2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

New Video: Mervyn Shares Brooding and Intense "The Bomb" @heygroover @romainpalmieri @DorianPerron
After spending years writing and recording pop and rock music, French artist and producer Mervyn made a radical departure in his creative approach with the release of his debut EP Holod, a defiant cry of revolt against war and the unbearable violence of our world. While meshing several different genres and styles, the French producer created an uncompromising sound with a punk rock urgency and…

I just noticed a possible Easter Egg. I was skimming through episode 9 when I noticed this statue behind Mervyn. There are a few but the one closest to him.. is that Calliope? Does Morpheus still hold a torch?
