Cutting a baby in half with a broadsword is pretty disturbing – almost disturbing as how wretchedly this illustration was rendered.
This was supposed to be George Clooney making out with Ryan Gosling. Instead, it looks like me making out with a younger version of myself. Yes, I get the irony.
You might think that it’s the exposed nipples that earned this illustration it’s No. 8 spot on this list. Actually, it’s the weird-ass shoulder.
I don’t even remember what this column was about, but this picture creeps me the fuck out – and I was the one who drew it.

Because Jesus’ right hand looks tiny like a doll’s hand. Ew.
