I mean Vecna is in Open Grave, Tiamat was in the Draconomicon. Of the great iconic D&D monsters there can't be many left.I do like the idea that perhaps the third book would have a three headed monster (Cerberus?) and so on. Though with Tiamat out of the picture for Monster Manual 5 I don't see that idea gaining much mileage.As to the cover of MM2 itself, I like the visual look of Demogorgon, but it does seem as if he's posing for the 'camera' rather than about to lay a smackdown on someone. So for something so threatening, he doesn't appear very threatening. Still a nice cover though...but Demogorgon shouldn't be nice.</blockquote>
