Description
This one is dedicated to my sweetie, and very soon-to-be husband, Greg, who is a big fan of all things Lovecraftian.Greg plays the collectible card game “Call of Cthulhu”, and is, in fact, the national champion! (He won the National Tournament at GenCon in Indianapolis in late August). Wanna know more about the game? Click here:

For the uninitiated, the game “Call of Cthulhu” is based on a universe created by the author H. P. Lovecraft. Lovecraft penned many works of horror in the 1920s and became something of a cult phenomenon after his death.
Cthulhu, invented by Lovecraft, is one of the otherworldly “Great Old Ones” who sleeps beneath the sea. He will remain in this slumber until his followers manage to wake and summon him, at which point he will bring insanity, death and destruction upon our world.
Cthulhu is described as being a scaly, octopus-headed monstrosity, with the wings of a dragon and huge talons. He’s also several stories tall, apparently, but I scaled him down a bit for this cartoon.
I was wondering what would happen if Cthulhu awoke and decided to make a pit-stop at an upscale restaurant before raining all that craziness upon us lowly humans. I mean, you’d be hungry, too, after sleeping for thousands of years, right?
In my goofy imagination, these hapless waiters have a problem on their hands.
Something tells me they aren’t going to get a very good tip…

Of course he'd be hungry, that's why he would then devour the sailors who rad recently stumbled upon his oddly angled island

Who said that if you're a allmighty alien god, trapped in a forgotten city under the ocean for aeons, with a lot of cultist who worship you (but of a stupid mammal race that you barelly consider as food), you cannot have sense of humor??
Good one!

On the other hand, mankind is doing a pretty good job of destroying itself. Guess we don't need a Cthulhu to help us there.

! Cthulu is awesome, you did a great job! I play the D&D style CoC game, here is...well...was my character sheet before I got massacred by a tentacle monster and torn to shreds. [link] Call of Cthulu is an awesome game because no matter what everyone dies! The winner is the one who survives the longest!
Also, Cthulu ate 1d8 PCs per round...

Hahahahaha, this is one is really fun I didn't knew call of chutlhu was a CCG, but well I used to be a big fan of CCG (MTG and L5R). I did fairly well in tourney with my ninja duel deck (wait... you have no idea what I'm talkinga about)

DrChrissy In reply to odd-eye [2006-02-08 20:24:06 +0000 UTC]
Thanks so much!!
Yup, Call of Cthulhu is a CCG. You used to be a MTG fan? One of my friends in Pittsburgh still is, and he's about a year or two older than me. He plays in tournaments every now and then. I've never done any CCGs, but I understand the concept behind them.
Hee hee. This friend of mine even has a shirt that says "I want my MTG". He wears it a LOT.

I used to play a lot, this stuff is costy tho, well at least for someone of my age. I always was able to think out a really strong deck, but I had no money to build it, often leaving me building low cost that are weaker against well planned decks (and also leaving me poor). I love all those games still, but apparently people here think your a geek for liking that... and when I play poker I'm cool, make no sens . Well I don't know if I'd put such a shirt but oh well
