The Dead Boy Detectives are a fictional supernatural detective duo who have appeared in comic books published by DC Comics' Vertigo imprint. They were created by writer Neil Gaiman and artists Matt Wagner and Malcolm Jones III in The Sandman #25 (April 1991). The characters are the ghosts of two dead children, Charles Rowland and Edwin Payne, who, rather than enter the afterlife, stay on Earth to become detectives investigating supernatural crimes.
Sebastian Croft and Ty Tennant portray Rowland and Payne in the third season of the HBO Max series Doom Patrol. George Rexstrew and Jayden Revri portray the characters in the self-titled Netflix series.
