The Thing strikes! And that mean old crow gets a big surprise! This is the first appearance of the Thing in our story (yeah, I know you get to see it on the cover too wiseguy). I love the creatures for H.P. Lovecraft’s yarns, so I hope you like the monster I created in the same vein. It was tougher than I thought, I wanted to make it creepy and a bit ‘off’ but not too scary for my younger readers, how’d I do? I kind of based it on an old Kimba cartoon that had this freaky plant monster attacking the white lion and his friends. I haven’t see the episode in years but the memory of it still sticks with me and I didn’t go look it up online either since I wanted to go with just my memory of it!
The Thing ate some crow today, boy it’s not a picky eater! Now that the flying fiend’s gone, what new threats await our tiny hero? And where’s The Graveyard Gang? Stay tooned dear readers for next week’s page!

Oh great, it’s got *tentacles* now? The hits just keep on coming. 🙁
Yup tentacles. We’ll have to wait and see what other surprises the Thing has! 🙂 Thanks for reading and commenting, it’s great to hear from you!
A sufficiently creepy critter you drew there, Rich! Those eyes seal the deal!
Thanks Pal, stay tooned, you’ll be seeing much more of the Thing! Thanks for reading AND commenting!
I’m reading this on my PC, so now I can play the theme music. I like it! 🙂
Yay! I’m glad you listened to it! I know I’m totally biased but I love it, I really do! I think it captures The Gang perfectly!
Cool Jello see-through monster, Rich! This made me worry about the time when Piccolo was looking into the well. That thing could’ve taken him!
I love the tall panel!
Thanks for the kind words Joseph, it’s always appreciated! It took be a while to ‘get’ what kind of Lovecraftian monster I was going for but I’m happy with the result! Thanks again for leaving a comment, I enjoy hearing from you!
I really like the translucent angle! By the size of that tentacle, I can’t help but wonder how big this creature actually is! Great work, Rich!
Thanks for the kind words Tim! It’s very flattering getting a ‘thumbs up’ from a talented artist! Yeah, there IS more of the Thing to be revealed, for sure!
Fen hungee indeed! If anyone can befriend it Piccolo can.
Yeah, that little guy’ knows no fear! We’ll just have to wait and see what trouble this may bring! Thanks so much for reading AND leaving a comment, very much appreciated!
