I'm focusing on jokers with fantastic creatures on them and where they fit. First, what fantastic and mythical creatures am I thinking about? Today: three types:
1. Fantasy Horses: Unicorns, Pegasuses (flying horses), and Centaurs
2. Mermaids
3. Dragons
Let's take a closer look.
Fantasy Horse Jokers: Unicorns, Pegasuses (flying horses), and Centaurs - I have as of last count, two dozen of these four footed beauties. I have them as a subset of the horse section which is a subset of the animal category. (Click on the title on caption to go see all the fantasy horses including the one pushyme-pullyou).

Mermaid Jokers. This section is larger primarily because of three dozen Nintendo mermaid cards. I have kept my mermaid cards, because of how beautify they are, as a subsection of the art section. Upon reflection, I feel like this is not my best categorizing. I am actively start considering moving them into the animal section, watery creature jokers (plus reptiles) subsection. Update: After some consideration, I have decided to move the mermaids into the animal section so that all the fantasy creatures are there.

Any other fantasy creatures? Well, there's this lady. I have her in with the butterflies.

Lastly, I probably should deal at at some point more systematically with near-human mystical beings such as leprechauns, elves, dwarfs, giants, skeletons, devils, dybbuks, ghosts, succubuses, incubuses, and cherubs and angels.

- Cats or Dogs . Felines, Canines. And a big cat subsection!
