The Jabberwock. Art by John Tenniel for "Through the Looking Glass..." by Lewis Carroll (1872)
From the wacky mind of Lewis Carroll comes the Jabberwock, a mythical creature with "jaws that bite," "claws that catch," and "eyes of flame." It figures prominently in the title and cover art of one of Fredric Brown's classic mystery novels:

The sequel to “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” (1865), “Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There” (1872) was published seven years later and is set some six months later than the earlier book. This time Alice enters a fantastic world by stepping through a mirror. “Through the Looking Glass” is not quite as popular as “Wonderland” but it does include celebrated verses such as “Jabberwocky” and “The Walrus and the Carpenter,” and episodes involving “Tweedledum and Tweedledee” and “Humpty Dumpty.” The book features fifty in-text illustrations by John Tenniel.
