TITAN
I was thinking some sort of Nephilim.
EDIT: But since Titan wasn't in the first Bestiary, it's more probable...
When is this coming out again? With the exception of the draconic priest I can't wait to find out what these things are.
The jabberwock is obvious. I'm guessing the giantess is a titan and the sharkmonster is some kind of fiend.
I have no idea whatsoever about the robed dragon-humanoid, but I want to know more.

Not sure you can call it a humanoid, since it doesn't have any legs... just a serpentine body.
Between Jabberwock and Dagon, instant win. I'm looking forward to some interesting fey options...
Jabberwocky certainly
2nd looks a bit too regal for Dagon, but I have no better idea. My first thought was "Bahamut?"
Armor-plated Shadow-infused Dire Shark - RUN! CR 20+ JAWS? Dang!
Definitely Titan - picture exudes chaotic goodness.
1. Jabberwocky
2. I really don't know, but if I had to guess, I would say that the Nirvana Dragon has been redesigned.
3. Stygian Leviathan (CR 21, From the Tome of Horrors II). Sure, it looks like a shark and not a whale, but this seems much more frightening and in line with what the greatest predator in the River Styx should look like.
4. Giantess with wild hair, clothes and expression, vaguely knightly armor, two handed warhammer...Definately a Titan.
Question inspired by the shark-thing.
Does anyone know if the shark deity Sekolah is propriatory, or does it have a real-world origin?
#2 could possibly be a psiwyrm from ToH III... although it's CR is too low.
1: mutant bunny
2: Pope dragon
3: The ghost of Jaws
4: a supermodel playing whack-a-mole:P Still, awesome stuff.
Robot ghost of Jaws.
Ranting, I hope the Nirvana Dragon hasn't gotten a redesign. All it needed was a neck job.
I know what two of them are. :D
The shark almost looks kind of technological to me ... I'm sure it's not, but kind of reminds me of the Sentinels from The Matrix ...

Proprietary.
EDIT: Whoops! quoted wrong post.
Wow, epic sweetness, I hope the "epic" book is soon to follow... :D
The artwork is awesome, as always. I wonder if you're getting spoiled having such great artists available to you.
It's a Deep Shark.

Bozak draconians are back. AND THEY'RE PISSED.
I know what two of them are. :DSigns point to two outsiders...
I didn't work on this book, so don't draw conclusions. ;)

Well remember that even in a 1-20 game you still need something that is CR 23 for an epic(apl+3) end fight and allow PCs to use all those cool capstone powers. So having CR 20+ is important.
Best hope the PCs have invested in a Vorpal Sword and that the "Mutant Rabbit" doesn't just snap it like a toothpick.
Daemon astral hunting shark? Puts the astral construct to shame. It's Jaws vs. an astral caravan (that looks like a fishing boat).
I'm a little disappointed with the titan, I honestly haven't seen any better than the original 3.0 artwork for one. It looks good, better than the 3.5, but just not...regal enough maybe?
The jabberwock looks great. So I guess like Todd, I know what two of them are...
I have to agree, I'm really disappointed in the "Titan" art. I mean, the only way we know the size is because of the cheap trick of the cape fluttering partially behind a tree - which is necessary because otherwise it is impossible to tell the perspective of the character versus the trees. What is that thing it is a attacking? A chocolate demon?
The titaness sure looks happy in her work, though.

I did think a titan would be a little less...armored? But still she's not too bad. Would be more impressive if she were giving a boot to the face of a building or something. But yeah, whack a mole is pretty addictive, especially when you can chase the mole!
A chocolate demon?
Aw, guessed!
The chocolate demon is actually the monster in that illo. I don't know where ya'll are getting titan from.
i have a feeling that these are all the CR20+ of the book...
Let me squelch that feeling right now. Ahem:
These are NOT all the CR 20+ monsters in Bestiary 2.
And no, I'm not just counting great wyrm dragons.
Squelch.

That's what I was thinking at first because why would a monster illustration have an attack target of something with horns. Of course, everyone kept saying Titan so I looked at the bigger picture. The problem is the one I mentioned earlier - bad perspective and the cape going behind the leafy blob changes it.

I think once you get to read his totally real "Dark Confection Deception" ability a lot of what you're seeing will make much better sense. But remember, it's not the calories, it's the saturated fat that'll getcha!

But the antioxidants are good for you!
Where we're going, we don't need rails.

How does one draw conclusions, anyway? I always get the wrings wrong.
Edit: Also, that's not a titan. It's a Jolly Red Giant, the rare female counterpart of the Jolly Green Giant. She's punishing that chocolate demon for discouraging people from eating their veggies.
You know nothing. Jolly Red Giants make people eat red meat. She punishes the little bugger for being a vegetarian.
