The funnier thing to me isn't that he didn't know what a "lemure" is, but that he nailed it on "hyalopterous."

BorosRecruit is right. It was simply a case of the artist not understanding what he was suppoused to draw.

A misunderstanding of what a lemure is (a ghost) lead to a lemur being featured in the artwork.

And, of course, the only other lemure card Viscid Lemures makes a reference to the misspelling- or is that miss - spell - ing...?

Weirdest name for any card in Magic, in my opinion. For that, this guy gets at least a 3/5 from me.

However, trivial things aside, if I happened to have a box of Ice Age laying around to have a booster draft, I would be totally okay with picking this guy. He seems like he'd be solid in limited.

"Alright, Richard, for this card we'd like you to paint..."

"I know what a lemur is, goddamnit! Stupid art department and there flying monkies..."

Nice save with the flavor text. Also, awesome art.

A 4/3 for 4Black isn't half-bad, and neither is a 3/3 flier.
The duality is just icing on the cake.

This card always terrified me way more than any of the "Horror Demon Vampire Zombie Terror"s did. The flavor text fits perfectly, as you would hardly be intimidated by something that looks like that and yet you can clearly see it's a 4/3, capable of handily ripping an elephant to shreds.

I like this card's art, even if it is a mistake. It's probably better than it would have been otherwise.
