I’ve loved mythology longer than I’ve loved Dungeons and Dragons, and that’s saying something.
There’s something about ancient stories of epic adventures that just get my heart pumping. Sometimes it’s the catharsis of the tales themselves, and sometimes it’s just because their so dang weird.
An evil old hag (with iron teeth!) that rides in a flying cauldron who lives in a hut on chicken-leg stilts?
(Baba Yaga)
You just can’t make this stuff up… well, maybe you can, but it’s probably not legal and nobody would believe you anyway.
How about this one?:
A delicious meat squeezed into an tube the size of your finger, imbued with forbidden phosphates, and then rolled in an ancient grain that has been ground into a meal, that is then impaled on a shaft of pine, and then plunged into 370 degree boiling fat!
(Corn dog)
Who says legends are a thing of the past?

I, too, love mythology (and have done so longer than my love of D&D, which is also saying something…) and you capture the feel of myth very well in the strip. Excellent job with that, Daniel! 
It’s like Monstro has a whole history behind it that we, as readers, are just beginning to discover.
Sugar Crystal Mallet FTW! (needs to be a shirt BTW)!
I, too, love the moon in this one and I really love the way you managed to give the first panel an almost 3D look!
You work is awesome. Love the color and the layout. The concept is really creative and fun too. Can’t wait to see more.
