“Tonight, Matthew, I’m going to be Marti Pellow but singing a selection from ‘In Utero’.”

He must be wearing the thinnest sandals in the galaxy.

So like Dick Blade then, but somehow less realistic.

The infection of the necrotising bacterium Cantdrawfeetitus butbigtitsnoprobsicum has spread right up both legs and appears to have infected the winged woman as well; we’ll have to amputate.

At first glance it appears something *giacomettiesque* has slipped out of that loincloth, but then you realize it’s just one of two badly drawn inner thigh ligaments, thank goodness.

Glad I put my tea down before I read @BC’s comments… and now I can’t unsee it….

Wow, I’ve heard of weird proportions, but aren’t his legs awfully long for someone with that short a torso? I mean, his torso and head combined are only 2/3rds as tall as his legs are long.
Who was the model, Bill Walton?

He has to flex every muscle in his body to keep from being blown away by the wind.

He has a pair of trained, sentient attack commas to back him up.
He calls them Oxford and Chicago.

Swen Nater retired from the LA Lakers to form an intergalactic heavy metal band singing space ballads and ZZ Top covers such as “He/She/It’s Got Legs”.

@Tor: One of the commas is either backwards or an apostrophe. But I can’t come up with a good nickname for an apostrophe, so GSS!

He would defend the giant’s testicles to the death.
(To be fair to the artist, this guy is supposed to have grown up in a really low gravity environment, so he’s naturally sort of stretched out, but I don’t think those feet can be excused on environmental grounds.)

@Bruce: Still doesn’t explain why his head and neck are the proportions of a Terran. Was he born on Planet Pinhead?
Maybe he’s leaning backwards… but that still wouldn’t explain the feet. How does he keep all that height balanced on those tiny feet?
Is it just me, or are those abs kind of weird?

@GSSxN ( #12). Two equivalent names for apostrophes might be “Deppen” and “Greengrocer”

@GSSxn (12)—
The crux of the biscuit
is the apostrophe.

@JJ, BC: OK, I’m gonna be a mother of invention and dub them “Oxford” and “Single Quote”.

They have siblings named Chicago and Grocer. And the conjoined twins Double Quote.
