It was an All-in-One and One-in-All of limitless being and self — not merely a thing of one Space-Time continuum, but allied to the ultimate animating essence of existence's whole unbounded sweep — the last, utter sweep which has no confines and which outreaches fancy and mathematics alike. It was perhaps that which certain secret cults of earth have whispered of as YOG-SOTHOTH, and which has been a deity under other names; that which the crustaceans of Yuggoth worship as the Beyond-One, and which the vaporous brains of the spiral nebulae know by an untranslatable Sign...
Tell me THAT doesn't sound like what the narrator would say.
I'm pretty sure the Lovecraftian reference is intended. The name of the last episode on the Devil's Playhouse site "The City That Dares Not Sleep" makes me think of R'lyeh.
Anyone else having happy little visions of Max as Cthulhu? Because I am, and it is awesome.
The final image in the trailer for the game of Episode 5 is obviously a Lovecraftian monster. I think the final episode will have a ton of tie-ins to Lovecraft, which makes me pretty happy. If there's one thing I never thought I'd get to see for real, it's a Lovecraft and Sam and Max crossover.

That would be a horrific, yet cool twist on New York's nickname of "The City that Never Sleeps"

Aww, he's not a horror, he's downright cute!
Only if you're Aquaman.
My one true aspiration.
No, not being ridden by Aquaman.

Max is gonna hit the button...twice.
Actually, I'm pretty sure Yog-Soggoth is where the name for the boss came from.
I was thinking more about it and thought of something. Yog-Soggoth is, according to the wikipedia article:
"is an Outer God and is coterminous (I had to look it up) with all time and space yet is supposedly locked outside of the universe we inhabit"
So, if we follow that same logic.:
You, me, and...
THE NARRATOR! :eek:
yes, that Hastur, don't make me say it again
