I started using this garish image as my user icon around the web this week. But I'm not exactly sure how to explain what's going on here.

If I were to describe it based upon my original drawing, I guess I'd say "a squid getting stabbed through the head by a very liberal interpretation Aquaman's freakish hook hand."

But I'm not really sure that description properly captures the effect of this cropped image, one which eliminates both Aquaman and the tentacles of the squid. Not to mention that the squid is orange and the background is pink, thus altering the meaning of both the creature and the setting.

So I dunno what to say about this cartoon other than "I like it." If you can think of a better way to describe it, lemme know!
