The next episode of DragonTalk was with the art director who mentioned that there is a giant tick as one of the monsters, also the book explains Bigby's death

That's an old school beastie, methinks.

Yeah, giant ticks have been around for a long time, although I think they're probably too icky for most games. (Slimes and undead are one thing, but ticks are the worst.)

Yeah, a tick the size of a dog is pretty icky, but that's what makes giant creepy crawlies so effective at creating a vibe.

Ok, listened to Emi's interview, a few more tidbits:
- Ettin Ceramorph, that has two Mindflayer tadpoles, one in each head
- Giant Dinosaurs, like way bigger than regular Dinosaurs, which can serve as mounts for Giants
- Bag Jelly, an Ooze that lives in the bottom of Giant's bags, eating Giant lint and refuse
- Scion of Memnor, which has a favorite art piece of hers, a tremendous ethereal Cloud being framing an Airship
- Tons of random tables, for Giant behaviors, bag contents

The random bag contents are a throwback to the G series of modules, when player characters would be going through a lot of bags.

Also a throwback to legacy content from the Teens like Volo's Guide or Storm King's Thunder, which had expanded bag tables (also, obviously, Yawning Portal).
