I've seen several takes on the idea of a "werecroc" as a reptilian counterpart to a werewolf, but never a literal werewolf-crocodile. Probably because that's stupid and doesn't make a lick of sense, but I embrace stupid. How perfect would this kind of monster be for a black and white B movie? I can imagine the costume now; It'd be covered in cheap faux fur that kept getting bits of the set stuck in it, and in several shots you could see the actor's mournful eyes peeking out of the werecroc's mouth.
I'm aware were/wer means "man," but that makes it all the better in my opinion. Wolf-croc just wouldn't raise the same questions.
Questions like "Squeedge, do you really have to insert crocodiles into everything" to which I answer YES, GODDAMMIT.

I think the best part is that I did a double-take - I thought this was (for a split second) a valentines day card! I think the off-red/pinkish hue threw me off, but that makes it all the better. Crocoween cards. Oh yes.
And well, like you say so well in the description, a were-croc is just so campy and wonderful of a design. I can't wait for next year to see what you produce!
