I did find this utterly IDIOTIC representation of a denizen of the supposed cave of mummified giants that was illustrated by someone who... apparently never even read the legend? I don't know. What the hell man.
For the uninitiated, the supposed giant cave mummies were just overly large corpses mummified by the desert climate. None were EVER mentioned to be ambulatory or anywhere but entombed in the mysterious caverns (which ran for miles under the Panamints). No curse is mentioned (beyond the poor decision making by those that have gone looking for it, never to return).
But I guess that gives you an idea of how much anyone is scraping the bottom of the barrel to come up with a Death Valley Monster of any kind.
