A Neil Gaiman Quote from Wiki.

Quote:
There's one called "The Death of Element Girl", in which Sandman probably won't even appear. He might appear, I dunno. That has Death, and an old DC character called Element Girl, who nobody remembers any more. The Lady Metamorpho. So famous she never even made it into Who's Who. Anyway, she's in there. Terribly sad story.


It isn't really surprising what happened to her. After reading the Showcase, I realized she was a pretty bad character. She threw off the dynamic of the entire book. She was a fifth wheel and her origin felt forced.
