Update: Ken’s circle

The ones who interact with Ken are few in num­ber, and not all of them have been on the best terms with him, or indeed with each other.

But in spite of what their mu­tu­al af­fec­tions or en­mi­ties may be or may have been, I man­aged to get a group shot before the advent of COVID-19, and there they are to the right. From left to right, they are: Baby Doll, Patrol Officer West of the LAPD, Baby Doll, Special Agent Arkady Trubetskoy of the Russian Federal Security Service (Фе­де­раль­ная служба безо­пас­ности Росс­ий­ской Фе­де­рации), Baby Doll, Ken himself, and Baby Doll.

Completely missing from this picture is any hint of the dreaded Jørgensen Gang, the main source of evil in Ken’s world. Photographs cannot hint at the horror and revulsion that their Love­craftian presence induces in even the most hardened and stout-hearted.

A new development in 2025

There has been a new development, in the arrival of a personage much more sophisticated, stylish, and soigné than any of those in the group photograph above. It is Arcibaldo Villani, who sows chaos much more efficiently than Agent Trubetskoy, more randomly and unpredictably, and with even more malice.
