If it's crap ... We'll tell you

Shield of Frozen Injustice posted a statusI remember hearing something, way back when, about how Sam Raimi had originally planned on having The Lizard be the villain in 2004's 'Spider-Man 2' along with Dr. Octopus. This of course explained why there was a reference to Dr. Connors in 'Spider-man,' and why Dylan Baker makes an appearance as that character in the sequel. Evidently someone was able to convince Raimi that maybe that approach was too narratively cumbersome...something they failed to tell him prior to 'Spider-Man 3.' If you're curious as to what Raimi's Lizard would have looked like, artist Constantine Sekeris has the answer. On his website, among many other astonishing works, is this concept art for Spidey's reptilian adversary. Whether you're looking at the sketch or the rendered drawing, Sekeris' Lizard is pretty terrifying, more so in my view than the one we got in 'The Amazing Spider-Man.' Take a look at the artwork below and let us know what you think. And be sure to check out all the other fantastic art on Sekeris' site.

Comment by K-Bomb on January 3, 2013 at 1:32am These would have freaked people out. (In the good way.)
Comment by Burn Victim on January 3, 2013 at 1:15am I like this better
........ yeah, this is actually alot better than the proto-Killer Croc looking motherfucker that we ended up with.
Yay! Only 9 years late. Why is this even news? Character designs for a movie thats already been done. they shoud post this on The Facebook.
Comment by Robert Wild on January 2, 2013 at 10:09pm I don't like these designs OR the one they used in Amazing Spiderman. But I agree, these look scarier. I just don't know why everyone seemed to want the short snouted version of Lizard. And to people saying "well, they just wanted to make him look like how he did in his first appearence." Umm, no. He still looks REALLY different.

Comment by Wruce Bayne on January 2, 2013 at 9:12pm These look very similar to The Amazing Spider-Man design; too humanoid, short snouts. I've always been partial to his second form in the comics.

Comment by zoe folkes on January 2, 2013 at 8:54pm first one screams a creature from the guyver to me.....it just does. the second one is better, would have work somehow i think if sam did it but its more suited for comic book look than film to be honest.
That second pic is pretty bad ass. Might work better as a comic book Lizard than as a movie Lizard, though. Marvel! Make it happen! (And make real Spidey fight him. Not stupid "Doc Ock doing a two-bit Kraven's Last Hunt" Spidey.)
