I’m surprised nobody has mentioned Terry Prachett’s “Repo Man” with DEATH as the main character. it’s really tragic when DEATH is fired by THE AUDITORS. He did get to keep the horse & scythe, though…
You misunderstand the intent. The purpose is not to cause the end of life, but to remove the living awareness and leave only the animal brain functioning, severing the cord which binds the soul to the Earth and the body.Of course, that’s all just mystical mumbo-jumbo anyway. Nothing for your concern whatsoever. Pay it no mind.
I love this strip everyday… but this one struck a chord. for my blog post ( itsnutsoutthere.blogspot.com) tomorrow, I am writing a humorous piece on death (The one thing we ALL have in common…) with a tag at the end,… so why is it so hard to be nice to everyone… or something like that. I have been blogging 4 years and have never used anything my 17 grandchildren couldn’t read.
I would like permission o use this Non Sequitur for my lead. May I do this and if there is a one time use fee, how do I get this done. My audience is modest… maybe 50 views a day, so I am not big time, but I love what I do.

I love seeing the baby on the floor. I’m reminded of some very tasteless jokes I wont repeat here.

Is the baby Sleep or Orgasm? I’ve both of them referred to as “the little Death”.

Sleep is just practicing to be dead.

The Sickle of Life… (I know, it’s not a sickle, but “the scythe of life” doesn’t have the same ring.)
