KANEKO’S CRIB NOTES LVII: HENSHIN-A-NO-NO, BABY!
More than three weeks have passed since the publication of our titanic exposé on all things pertaining to Odin, Doi, and demon design past and present. But if you haven’t had an opportunity to check her out, or if you’re already rearing for another go, then now’s your chance! You can jump inhere, but if you’d like a sneak-peak first, check out just some of the good stuff that handily conforms to this blog’s purview below:
- ODIN: A less than appropriate appropriation of one of the least Germanic Tokusatsu icons in existence.
- ASHERAH: The dadaist patterns of another Ultra alumni make the transition to Semitic mother goddess.
- MAITREYA: All of those Matsuko Deluxe jokes have borne out something fierce, but the aspect and mudra of the future Buddha are at the ready.
- LOKI: Shocking parity achieved with the very, very nude illustrations of 19th century Danish illustrator Lorenz Frølich.
- AMON: The Le Breton Dictionnaire Infernal print injected with the PEDs of Devilman’s very red Amon.
Those are the CliffsNotes, but you can find them discussed at length with a boatload of context by following this link!

Creation #11
Yahweh the Unfriendly Ghost
Thousands of years ago, the Israelite tribes worshipped dozens of gods, including Baal, Asherah, and Yahweh. As the kingdom of Israel emerged, it chose Yahweh as the supreme god, and worship of all other gods was banned.
Character designs are based on the supernatural child characters from Harvey Comics, originally designed by Joe Oriolo, Steve Muffatti, and Warren Kremer. The Harvey characters are currently owned by DreamWorks Animation.

“One of the commonest classes of religious objects found in Late Bronze levels is constituted by the so-called “Astarte” plaques. These are pottery plaques, generally oval in shape, on which were impressed (from a pottery or metal mould) a figure of the nude Goddess Asherah, en face with her arms upraised, grasping lily stalks or serpents, or both, in her hands. The Goddess’s head is adorned with two long spiral ringlets identical with the Egyptian Hathor ringlets. These plaques were borrowed from Mesopotamia, where they have a long prehistory in the Early Bronze Age [about 3200-2100 BCE].”—Dr. W. F. Albright
