Notes:

Panel 3: I had hoped to make the croc darker to better illustrate the torch went out, but I decided that would be overworking the art.
Panel 4: I like the swoosh and splat supercede the panel border. I was unhappy with my inking technique on the croc here.
Panels 5-8: I did a little Mignolaesque trick of throwing in bits of stuff to take up unused space, since originally this was two side by side shots of Rhino face getting splattered, but I couldn’t get them to fit in the space here until I broke it up and put in the sword and splortch.
Panel 9: I thought this was going to look awful, but I kind of like it. I pretty much traced the pillars from some random jpeg on google.
Panel 10: I hemmed and hawwed about putting that ‘ouch’ star in. You’ll notice there is absolutely no sound effects or word balloons in this story. This is the closest thing to one.

Yog-sothoth.com is planning a YSDC 10 Anniversary DVD “Lovecraftian Tales from the Table: Horror on the Orient Express & The Masks of Nyarlathotep” and they’ve started a fundraiser. Pledges act as a pre-order for a successful fundraiser, and they’re offering a number of extra goodies for those taking part.

So if you’d like to take part and support the creation a quite unique product, pledge at the YSDC Fundable page!

Note the “Music by The Darkest of the Hillside Thickets” Line!

This is completely ridiculous (thanks Lani). I cranked cowbell and Walken up to 11.
