A is for Alica the ugly one... she's got only one eye (among other strange disfigurements) so it was either become a superhero or put a paper bag on her head.
B is for BeardedGuy. Watch out for his beard as it's a seperate and sentient entity.
C is for Chomper. I once saw him eat a whole pizza... by himself! Astonishing!
D is for Deathscream... because he likes cheesy old 80s sounding names like that.
E is for EnormousEgoMan. Worship his greatness!
F is for FallacyKid. Don't believe the hype.
G is for GelNeck... and that's about all he can stretch.
H is for Hamcock the flying pig.
I is for Ibraham and...
J is for Jebediah, his brother. Together they crop fields and tend to the sheep... umm...
K is for Kevin, their quadriplegic donkey.
L is for Legs... which are connected to feet... which are for kicking some ass.
M is for Maintiq the alien quizboy! Quickly what's quentizzerp plus nintoor? Wrong! It's losaqitzzzzzzz! Stupid
N is for Nobody's gonna mess with us
O is for OmeletBoy, Mmm... cook us up some spanish omelet pronto!
P is for Protective Video Surveillance. Because even superheroes need their privacy protected!
Q is for Quark the alien toadman
R is for Robby the Zombie Pirate. His eyepatch also covers up a secret black hole which would devour the entire earth should he take it off. So be nice to him.
S is for Slytherina the Sassy One. She knows how to use her tongue... just like your mom!
T is for Thomas the Ancient One (born in 1963 if you can believe it)
U is for Unbelievably large horns for such a tiny demon.
V is for Very small mosquito-man that could be easily mistaken for a common fly. If squashed, you will be plagued for an eternity.
W is for Wilson. He mistakenly mixed the Invisible Man's potion into his whiskey and now only his mustache and nose are seen. He wishes he had a more fashionable mustache.
X is for X-Bots! Run for your lives!!
Y is for Yargon the Rockabilly Crocodile. (Crocabilly?)
Z is for Zoom the really fast worm... well he is faster than a normal worm in any case.
0-9 are the Numbers Gang. (Yes I gave up in the end. Forgive me?)
It is known as an initial. (I had to look it up after I realized that I didn't know what that was called)

Thanks everybody! I know I should have spent more time on this but it was started very late in the challenge and I did what I could. I will work on this some more once the challenge is over. I would also like to point out that this could be used as one of those letters you see at the beginning of a chapter in a book (I'm sure there's a name for these letters but it fails to reach me).
I don't like this as much as I should...The concept is great as well as the descriptions, but you seem to have rushed it quite a bit. I'd love to see you revamp these in the future.
It's completely legible if you wink your eyes (though I would curse anyone trying to use this for a text longer than two words). Very original, great idea, but that you already know.
this is soooo awesome, I was hoping for heavy originality like this. The shading on any particular one seems quick/simple but the collective randomness oozes style. I like how readable each of the letters are, for the most part it doesn't seem as if you compromised in either direction too much.

Nice job, I really like the shading on Deathscream.
