Meet the Gargantum Troll Family. It’s not your typical family. First of all, it’s only comprised of males, and honestly, what family can actually function properly without a woman to tell them what to do or not to do? Just look at this bunch of misfits, they’re just crying for a mother’s touch. Or else, bringing me to my second point, they are the way they are simply because they are a family of trolls.
Spawned by illustrator and photo manipulator Aja Jones, the Gargantum Troll Family is just one of the many fairytale families he has fathered. From goblins to zombies to magical creatures, Aja Jones thrives on the world of fantasy.
