I can't believe how amazing this is. It's spot on like the random product placement comic ads they used to feature like smack dab in the middle of a comic you were reading haha. Love it!
You know, just for fun I have pondered a while ago how an MJ cameo in Cryptida would look like. The scenarios that came to mind were either "Indiana Jones"/"Da Vinci Code"-like chases after artifacts of religious significance, or encounters with biblical-themed beasts...
Biblical mythology suggests a lot of the Angels are pretty darn scary looking. Cherubim aren't little winged babies, but what Hell Hounds were before they fell.
Though the specific examples I thought of where:
- MJ having to suffer through Jonah's experience in the whale. (Kanny: "But...how did you survive in there for days without being digested!?" MJ (furious): "I DON'T KNOW! You are the biologist, you tell me!")
- Unicorns as depicted in Christian iconography. (You need a virgin to catch them - but is MJ really the right woman for this job...?)
Ahh, yes, I remember the old Hostess fruit pie adverts in comics in the '70's and '80's - which always seemed to feature villains that even the lamest of the featured hero's rogues gallery would laugh at.... This is genius, and I salute you!
Glad you liked it! I must admit I wasn't certain what to do with your characters. So fell back on the classic Scooby Doo scenario coupled with my Kooba fruit pie gag.
