Or, Legendary Creatures….They’re Just Like Us!
Related…here’s a list of mythical creatures from Wikipedia. Do not read unless you want nightmares. Some of these are stone cold FREAKY, yo! A couple of examples:
Abura-akago (Japanese) – Oil-drinking infant
Blemmyae (Medieval Bestiary) – Headless humanoid with face in torso
Chonchon (Mapuche) – Disembodied, flying head
Oh, it goes on…and on.
See ya manyana!
HAHA!! do Nessie next!!
hmm.. you still have no face.
Well, I know what I’m doing for the next half-hour while my paper goes unfinished. (But seriously, I expect to recognize a few names on this list from my mythical beasts phase when I was 15… yeah.) I’m so glad I found this blog again! I met you very briefly at the Comic Con in Bethesda last October and (hopefully) will be presenting some of my own work there this fall (and have decided to stalk this website in the least-creepy way possible)… your stuff is always awesome and amusing!

Kurage-no-hinotama (Japanese) – Jellyfish which floats through the air as a fireball
THAT’S AWESOME!!!
Hey Anita – thanks for the comments, and welcome back! Stalk away!
