DECK the Halls 02. Queen of Cats. A necklace of bird/rodent skulls and a crown of tiny ribcage bones. And a neck ruffle. She is the queen of cats. But all cats are the queen of cats, so it's a shared title.

DECK the Halls 01. Jack of Books. This is going to be interesting. This took longer than I thought, of course, so we'll see how my approach changes as we go. I ran of out time for color. I like to post the ones I'm not happy with as well as the ones I like. Feel free to try one or two if you like.

I'm not sure how many of them I'll get to but my idea for December was to do a royal suit card for random stuff. This is the list I generated in case you want to join in with a quick sketch or two.

Q: “Are you affirming you think Trump is a fascist?”

TRUMP: “That’s ok, you can just say yes.”

Baba Yaugust 31. Jeweler. This Yaga flies on a giant diamond opal, the only one of its kind, and wields a jeweler's magnifying eyepiece that can tell the worth and perfection levels of anything it looks into, including people. Her judgement is final and defining.

I think we need Halloween advent calendars. Not just chocolate treats but snippets of infernal verse, tarot cards, monster figurines, disguises, unholy relics, animal skulls, potion recipes, witch history trading cards, adoption hotlines for familiars, Halloween puns, spells, and stuff like that.

Baba Yaugust 30. Seamstress. This Yaga flies on a spool of infinitely extensible, multicolored, unbreakable thread. She telekinetically wields large sewing scissors that never go dull, a giant golden needle, and three expandable, indestructible thimbles.

I just heard that with Avengers: Doomsday and Dune 3 slated to come out in 2026 on the same day in December, people are talking about how DUNESDAY will be the new BARBENHEIMER.

Baba Yaugust 29. Florist. This Yaga flies on a murderous, carnivorous, tentacled plant and wields a whiff of scents and pollen that can seduce you, kill you, sedate you, or send you into whatever emotional state she desires. God help you if you have seasonal allergies.

Jeez the stadium 50/50 draw at the game right now will send the winning ticket owner home with over twenty million dollars?!?! Bonkers. That is totally incomprehensible. Wild.

If there's a world series game on Halloween, which is looking likely, it should be a spooky game with black uniforms and the Blue Jays should call themselves the BOO Jays with little bird skulls on the logo.
