Comic Book Monsters, Of course

You might be talking about Dr. Deemo.

Nope, different guy. Super-long torso, might have had stubby legs, tries to strangle swamp thing and hypnotizes him. I think he's in the fourth issue; whichever one introduces Dr. Arcane.

M'nagalah had a pretty great appearance in All-New Atom a few years back. Amazingly, he's pretty much the first explicit Lovecraft homage in mainstream Superhero comics.

Ranxerox (originally Rank Xerox)


An android made from spare Xerox parts that lives in the future (late 1980s) mega-city of Rome (he does visit New York). He's a violent, amoral anti-hero protagonist that tends to hang out with his drug addicted, under-aged girlfriend (Lubna) that he's forced to love due to a circuit loop. Lubna tends to exploit him.
Rank Xerox/Ranxerox was created by the Italian comic artists Stefano Tamburini and Tanino Liberatore in 1978.


Does this remind anyone else of a certain Major? Although these particular bits of artwork might have been around that certain Major was already an established character (I'm not sure).

Oh, and Tanino Liberatore did the artwork for the album cover of Frank Zappa's 1983 album The Man from Utopia:

The Onstantine Priests from The Amory Wars.



That thing on the ceiling. There's seven of them, created by the Wilhelm Ryan. Each Priest was at one time one of the twelve Mages, like Ryan himself, who managed the planets of Heaven't fence. There was an event called the Mage Wars, during which Ryan decided to fight against the other mages and their armies and won total rule over all 78 planets of Heaven's Fence. Ryan captured the seven remaining mages and used them to create the priests. Later in the series, the priests mutate even further, becoming more distinct from eachother and more monstrous.

You might find this questionable; I wouldn't.

These little bastards enjoy being eaten, and will even cook themselves for you (which has to count for something).

I think I've actually been to a Li'l Abner themed amusement park.

Note who wrote the introduction to that Li'l Abner book.

While the lantern corps all have a majority of generic humanoids as members, they also have a decent amount of unique aliens. One Green Lantern that caught my eye while I was reading Sinestro Corps War was Penelops, a tentacled eyeball. Can never go wrong there! I also like Slussh from the Sinestro Corps.

Because I have no clue how to fucking downsize after scanning, ehre are some of the Onstantine priests. There are four others, I'll show them later. I love the green one that looks like a disembodied, distended anus. And I like the purple one's crotch eyeball.
