Polydactylic characters in sequential art/graphic narratives/comics—whatever you want to call them—seem quite rare. Possibly even more rare than in real life. Here is one I found in the January 1990 issue of Heavy Metal magazine, a tale written and illustrated by one Juan Giménez. It’s called “The Fourth Quarter”, and it’s about a conflict between the people of Earth and a humanoid race called the Krommiun. The latter look identical to Earth humans, except for having six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot. Though the extra finger is sometimes depicted as noticeably smaller than the others, and seems almost vestigial. But this is not consistent.
This is one of my early animations, first posted on Hentai Foundry in Flash format many years ago. I’m not sure what to call this. I came up with the term “sexephant”, which is a cross between “sex” and “elephant”, to describe someone with such an appendage. The appendage itself I call a “trotch”, which might be considered an abbreviation of “trunk at crotch”. It could also be called a “gynosome”, that being the official scientific term for a similar organ that was discovered in a species of insect. Oh, and that is very much female genitalia on the tip of that thing.
