Today’s Monster is the leviathan! Leviathans originate from Hebrew mythology and Judaism. They have been popularized as giant sea serpents who attack ships with devastating blows. In the book of Enoch it is described as a female water dragon

Did You Know: The Suicide Squad first appeared in The Brave and the Bold in 1959. The team included Rick Flag Jr., Jess Bright, Dr. Hugh Evans and Karin Grace. In the first few appearances of the team they dealt with meteor showers, giant serpents and even dinosaurs!

C'est au tour de l'angoisse de faire son apparition avec cette oeuvre.

Il s'agit de La Méduse du peintre italien Caravage.

Le tableau raconte un épisode célèbre de la mythologie : Persée décapitant la tête de Méduse, une créature malaisante avec des serpents pour cheveux.

Greetings, everyone!
I'm feeling anxious, but nothing to worry about.

Keep your chin up and be the kindness people need these days. Don't let people abuse it, though. Be gentle as doves, but wise as serpents.

Have a good one!

Mother Goddesses such as Isis, Cybele & Kali were said to command weather by braiding or releasing their hair. In European lore, witches' hair controlled the weather and some folk said when placed in water such hair became serpents...

We talk about Dan's job at Toys R Us, his background in animation and the process of working on this issue. Our chat covers the “animation style” art in this issue, whether all Cobra Pilots are a$$holes, Snow Serpents and even how the snow was drawn!

"Their fan I tickle from serpents to dragons
I'd immerse you in flame, your milk and your passion
Lead weight for his from his old turn, the young, I was eagerest
On using the stairs I, how nested to find you..."

"The daggers act very similar to cobras, my own little hooded serpents. They have a mind of their own, they strike fast without warning, especially when provoked. Do be a good lad and do not tempt me or them."

In J.R.R. Tolkien’s translation of the Elder Edda, it is said of the dragon, Fafnir:

Men sing of serpents
ceaseless guarding
gold and silver
greedy-hearted;
but fell Fafnir
folk all name him
of dragons direst,
dreaming evil.

Dragons in times were described as the largest of serpents, & akin to the Devil. 🐍 Wicked & cunning, were particularly associated with adultery. 🐉

Those dragon designs OOF. I know it's not an original complaint but I remember going to the Balinese temples when I was a kid and being in AWE of those wild-eyed stone dragons/serpents

The Disney designs are so painfully commercialized it's horrible🙄

Depictions of dragons and serpents are found in Ethiopian art. The illustration are sophisticated and they look much more like reptilian.

Here are some of my favourite images of dragons in manuscripts art, from the collection.
