Technically the same formula as others, but wanted a more biologically possible figure. Took of ultimate lizards arms and attached Annihilus wings to his shoulders. Sculpted bicepts and more shoulder to him. Then added beak, eye ridges and back part of the head. Spray painted all with flat black, then layers of 3 different greens, some yellow and some browns to add to a earthy quality to him. Comments and suggestions welcomed.

While on an expedition to Tierra del Fuego, geneticist/psychologist Dr. Karl Lykos was bitten by a mutated pterodactyl from the prehistoric Savage Land which infected him with a genetic virus that forced upon him the need to drain the life energy of others to survive. Lykos eventually became a hypnotherapist, and constructed a device to help drain his patients’ energies. After absorbing the energy of the mutant Havok, Lykos was transformed for the first time into the pterodactyl-like Sauron, named after the arch-villain of Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings novels. He battled the X-Men, but soon began reverting back to Lykos and fled. Later, as Sauron, he attempted to kill his own lover Tanya Andersson, but was again opposed by the X-Men. As Lykos, he became despondent over his behavior, and after she and the X-Men found him he ran over a precipice and was believed dead.
