Cute Of Cthulhu: The Great Cuddly One

There's something deliciously amusing and irreverent about taking the image of the Great Old One, Cthulhu, and giving him a cute make-over. And there must be many people who think the same, as there is considerable artistic sub-culture of graphic designers and artists who have done exactly that. From comic-strip depictions, to parodies of well known comic, cartoon and children's characters given the Cthulhu look. Knitted Cthulhu's also seems popular, from soft-toys, to balaclavas. It seems nothing is safe from being given the Cthulhu make-over. There are dozens of websites, and likely somewhere into the hundreds of images on the Weird Wide Web, dedicated to the "cute of Cthulhu". Here we present you some of the best that can be found out there. 
"Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn" - "In his house at R'lyeh, dead Cthulhu waits dreaming."
"Grrrr! I'll eat your soul!!!"
Who knew? Cthulhu loves to sniff ladies panties.
Cthulhu by Dave Allsop.
Charles M. Schulz's of Cthulhu.
Probably the most evil creature ever spawned. A cross between Cthulhu and a My Little Pony!!! Arrrggghhh!!!
What every evil deity needs, a cuddly knitted version of itself.
Aw! Have you just woken-up?
My Little Cthulhu, the vinyl toy
Yum Yum Cthulhu by Santani
From the Cthulhu Coloring Book by Amy Crook
"Like I said earlier... I'm going to eat your soul! With BBQ sauce."
