Demon # 384 (illustrated by Anna Hybsier)

The Fox and the Badger made a wager to see who could make the Monk who lives in a small temple in the mountains of Japan flee his responsibility.

Each tried a variety of tricks to make the Monk leave the temple.

One night a troop of demons appeared at the temple. They stood outside the temple and demanded that he come out and be eaten.

The Monk emerged from the temple and used a torch to frighten away the demons. As he began to run toward the demons, the creatures disappeared and where the demons had once been stood a fat old badger.

This is one of the demons that the Monk saw when the badger was trying to play a trick on him.

He appears in the P. Craig Russell version of Dream Hunters. He is in the first issue, on page 15, panel 2.

Anna’s portrayal of this demon is perfect. She was able to make what looks to be an adorable demon very menacing. Don’t mess with this demon!
