Not only am I gigantic, I have huge mace-heads for hands! Ensnaring my legs with ropes and chains, puny mortals? Well, then I'll just pluck them off... with the fingers I don't have... crap.

The fuzzy guy with the staff is Sun Wukong, right?

I'm thinking that giant is actually holding a pair of Chuí, but the hands and handles are hidden from the perspective of the viewer on the ground.

A friend of mine just sent an email on our D&D group thread with this link that just said "epic-level encounters." I'm playing a fighter/monk right now and now I seriously want a Compliant Rod.

There's some NSFW pictures in there, nudity. Just mentioning for those folks at work.

It's Zhong Fenghua, actually.
Quite a few of these are depictions of Chinese gods and demons. I can't be sure of most of them, but the one with the two maces might be Ling Gan Da Wang 灵感大王, a demon that used to be a goldfish in the Goddess of Mercy's pond, who tried to kidnap Tripitaka in Journey to the West. The chap with the halberd and big dog behind him (and a third blue eye) is Yang Jian 杨戬, or Er-Lang God, who had that famous hide-and-seek scene with Sun Wukong.
