Sea Monster Still at Large



A few days ago Landshark brought us up to speed on the shocking Monster Attack on RI Beach. For some reason the story didn't receive mainstream media attention (conspiracy perhaps?) so I decided to take matters into my own hands and create this rendition of the creature based on the description from the credible witnesses who survived the ordeal. Hopefully this will assist scientists in identifying and capturing the monster before it terrorizes more innocent Rhode Islanders.

Nice! How courteous of involved parties to provide such a detailed, matching description of the beast. Basketball head, scales, white underbelly, teeth -- all details provided by both players.

You should have drawn him grabbing her ass.

Thank you for providing me with my first (huge) laugh of the day! I think you should storyboard the entire story and that dude must become a permanent character in your cartoons!

Baahahahahaha!!! This is so damn funny! JSP you are my hero of the day!

AC said...

omg, that's so astoundingly awesome!

perhaps a cafe press item or so could be graced with that poignant image?

JPX said...

My only suggestion would be to Rhode Island up the dialogue,

"Don't turn around no mattah what ya heah"

Crystal Math said...

This is funnier than I imagined! The monster is definitely a keeper and belongs on the H-thon Monster List banner ;-)

I agree with JPX about storyboarding the newsclip as well!

This.

Is.

Superb.

My first resolution of 2012 was to get back in the groove here. I'm sorry I've been away! This kind of genius on display makes life worth living. Thank you, Sweats.

I would love to see this entire thing animated a la Dr. Katz.

The original audio would have to be used for it!

AC said...

i agree with jpx, this saga is perfect for squigglevision.

Johnny Sweatpants said...

Thanks for the compliments!

You're right, JPX - applying the real audio to a crudely animated short would be hysterical. I can picture the ass grab vividly.

Catfreeek said...

That would be so friggin' great!

JPX said...

At the very least I vote that the sea monster be placed in the Horrorthon banner!

Catfreeek said...

Yes, put him in the banner.

I am just now catching up on all this and just watched the video for the first time. I am dying!!! That must have been a seriously slow news week. You know Karen Adams was pissed about having to even intro that story.
