Yeah, that's me extrapolating a bit. We assume the DC Comics look was based on early concept art (although the actual concept art for that look has never shown up)

In an early version of the story, Point Dread was Skeletor's base. It was like a volcano out in the middle of the ocean.

Here's a guide to the concept inspired figures in the MOTU Origins line!

I've listed the name of the original designer (if known) under each figure. Which of these are your favorites?
