This is what's staring at me on my desk: The Creech


I love this action figure of the character Creech, which I received from my brother and sister in law in Georgia one Christmas. I've never read this character, but I really like how the sculpt of this monster turned out, with its giant metal gloves and cybernetics on top of bulging muscles, and its cybernetic tentacle hair depending from a sort of implant node on the neck.

In fact, though I found some art and description of this character online, I have little interest in the comics version of it. The art I've seen doesn't do it for me the way the sculpt does. The sculpt is gritty and solid while the art seems fanciful.

  1. It's kind of amazing to me that a character this obscure gets its own action figure. It does look pretty cool.

  2. I totally don't get much of the whole McFarlane/Spawn thing. But a lot of the figures are neat.
