‘I am King KaMayhem! Lord of the Waves! Master of the Surf! Monarch of the Beach!!’

‘I am here to challenge you, Island Guardian, to a surf contest! Fail and I shall destroy your island!! Win and you shall be granted the honor of a dinner date with me,… or lunch, depending on my schedule. What say you?’

‘Hmm? Yes, take a good look at my mighty surfboard, ‘tis the instrument of your defeat. Feel it’s weight in your hands, see how easily it swings through the aiACKK!!’

*Whack* *Crack* *Thud*

‘I told you before,… I have enough to deal with on this island already without clowns like you too,… now Go Away!!’

‘Yes ma’am,… sorry ma’am,…’ *Groans*

‘Hmph!!’

*Groaning* ‘I think she might have broken my surfboard,…. And maybe my head,… Just a minor setback for King Ka---’

‘GO AWAY!!!’

And what villain lineup would be complete without the goofy, comic relief villain, to that effect, meet King KaMayhem. ;)

So yeah, a guy in Hawaiian shirt and shorts, with a surfboard and a Tiki head, and some undefined seemingly fire-related powers, decked out in bright colors to attract a lot of attention to himself. The kind of villain that looks potentially formidable, shows up boasting and trying to get attention, but for all their chest thumping are usually pretty easily dealt with because they are all just a lot of hot air. I really love what BAB did with this idea, the design of the Tiki head is simply brilliant, and the expression shots show that it’s not just a mask but his actual face/head. The spiky teeth and that sinister grin, the weird hair and the leaves sticking are nice touches, and how his face changes color when made, with fire streaming from his eyes, nose and hair, great touches. The muscle tone gives the impression of someone that hits the gym, and, combined with the tiki head, make him look like a potentially formidable opponent, until you get to the bright Hawaiian shirt and shorts with drawstring hanging off, and sandals, and his credibility just drops right off. The colors BAB chose for this are just perfect, he is practically a rainbow of bright eye-catching colors, and a surfboard with a giant grinning face on it just screams ‘Look at me!’. Definitely a sharp contrast to the complicated, serious villains rendered before him, and a villain that is sure to be,… well,… a mild annoyance to Ember, maybe? ;)

What do you think? :D
