    It is quite an insightful observation though.

    I concur. They most likely have just the one.

    Because one should never pass up an opportunity to use a Venture Bros. clip, especially when it has such an awesome(and relevant) joke.

    Love it. Art is solid, the joke is killed and Gabe's face in that last panel is priceless.

    The fact it's a HoTS joke is just the icing on the cake!

    Don't know if Bliz contradicted themselves, but it's the reverse in HotS.

    I think that was after they went all cthulhu-y in Catacylsm and started looking like this

    The proportions in that are just silly. The heads are the same size as his/their knuckles.

    Maybe it's foreshortening and he/they have just got really long arms

    The more powerful you get, the smaller your head gets. Haven't you ever seen a WH40K Space Marine?

    That's what heroic physique conventions get you, a progressivly smaller head (going from 7.5-1 body-to-head ratio in realistic drawings to 9-1in heroic art. Cartoony heroic art exaggerates it even more). Blame the greeks.

    Didn't someone use this concept as an April fools gag several years ago?

    Yes, two players playing one two-headed ogre started as a WoW April Fools joke, and now it's a real thing in HoTS.
