buscema style A lone robed wizard stands at the edge of a cliff with his back to the viewer, looking up and outward at an enormous monstrous entity rising from the sea below, the creature filling the upper two-thirds of the composition. The entity has a vast bulbous body covered in glistening scales and pustules, dozens of writhing tentacle-arms emerging from its torso and reaching outward in different directions, three irregular eyes set asymmetrically in its lumpen head, and a wide horizontal maw lined with rows of jagged teeth. Its tentacles drip seawater in long strings. Below, the sea churns violently around the entity's submerged lower body. The wizard at the bottom of the frame is tiny by comparison, his hooded robe billowing in the storm-wind, one arm raised in a gesture that might be a defiant spell or a hopeless plea. Lightning forks across the sky behind the entity in jagged white streaks. Heavy storm clouds churn in the upper portion of the frame.
