Nothing about the dad screams "non-human" to me

[up] Look at his ears.

That being said, it's badly artifacted and J2FAAC since there's no indication of them being Spock's parents.

Suggestion: Firebreather. This trope plays a key story element

The comic (and movie that aired on Cartoon Network) make no attempt to hide the fact that Duncan's mother is human and his father is Belloc, the king of the 'Kaiju''. Duncan's mom even tries to explain the Hot Skitty-on-Wailord Action to Duncan at one point.

Here's the same picture, more friendly to use as an image for the site, but Duncan's image quality suffers a little.

[up] The only problem I have with that pic is that without knowing the show, the people in the background might not be obvious as his parents.

Hm, agree (and I have seen the show and read the original). The comic might offer something better. I'll go acquire a copy and see if I can find a shot.

Firebreather was also the first suggestion that came to mind for me too.

This is a crop and move of several panels. I can add a "years later" thing as well.

[up] That's not bad. I like the Amanda/Spock pic also.

The issue I see with the Star Trek picture is that there isn't anything thqt indicates that she is Human. Here hair covers her ears, and while no Vulcan would ever actually wear thier hair to do that, it's not obvious to anyone not familiar with Vulcan culture.

[up][up][up][up]If you are unfamiliar to Volcan culture, you wouldn't know that pointy ears means that he is not human, so it just seems like a husband and his pregnant wife.

[up][up][up][up][up]Maybe the last two panels. Also, what is that from?

Human/Centipede kid +1

But why is his food censored out?

The Firebreather comic pic gets my vote. The centipede one is.... disturbing, to say the least, and it's something that I'd normally be used to seeing.

I didn't even notice the censored out gory meat that he(?) is eating for dinner until you mentioned it.

The giant isopod kid is an omake from a smut comic. The food being censored was from a previous strip, apparently they eat gross things.

I'd make it 2x2 but legibility might be an issue then, unless we redo the dialogues.

Centipede kid isn't clear enough that the kid is a Half-Human Hybrid. It just looks like she's wearing a costume cloak or something.

  • 1 for the Firebreather one.

Is there a pic somewhere of a family portrait of both parents and the kid?

I can get a different shot of Firebreather with both parents in the frame, but it might be more squashed.
