One more piggy comic

This one doesn't picture a piggy, at least not a real one. Which makes it even better as a comic!

Hindu pork deity!

This is something that had escaped me. Apparently, there is an Hindu deity (an avatar of God Vishnu) that has the face of a pig. A boar to be precise, and it is called Lord Boar or Varaha.
