  1. These rule. I love how the dude who literally decided what Baltan's guts were going to be like totally forgot that he wore elf shoes and was like "Whatevs... three toes it is!"

    The Pestar is amazing, as is Ape King (coz there's no way Red King can stretch that way).

  4. @Velocitron: I thought that Red King was King Kong at first glance

    @Bali: Thanks!

    @Karswell: The book only had one printing, in 1995, and is pretty hard to come by. The Japanese title is 大伴昌司の世界.
