I'm not at all hep to the mythos surrounding Cthulhu, so I had to do a little research, and a very little it was too -- I found a bunch of drawings at
DeviantArt.com and had a quick glom at a couple dozen of 'em. You can be sure I'd go about the business of researching Cthulhu more thoroughly if I had to design him for a Saturday morning cartoon on the Family Channel. H. P. Lovecraft must have been a bit fuzzy in describing his demon-deity, for no two creators at Deviant Art depicted him the same way, but all of them gave him a squid-head, so I gave him one too. Apart from that, I wanted to give him a body that would allow him to pursue what I suppose to be his true calling:
There's just no holding back a born hoofer predating the first appearance of man. This boy's gonna drive the crowds
insane at first sight, don't you think?
