He came from the future to take our money. Now he is returning from the past to do it again.

I figured out the art.

Look where the chest is and you'll see a toothy bottom jaw with things like insect pincers around it (one on each side) and it's eyes are where you expect them. The right arm (his right) is grasping a human and the other is going out of view. The white stuff in front of his eyes are the teeth for the top portion of the jaw, so he's "screaming" in the art, if that makes sense..

If you blow it up (zoom in) you'll see what I'm talking about, it's actually really cool looking art when you figure it out; he's about to swallow a guy whole.

I still have a price guide from back when he was 7 bucks. Good times.

@DimirOverlord

This isn't comparable to Consuming Abberation. What are you even talking about?

@DimirOverlord

Yes, 3 mana and being monochrome IS worth $130. Because when your opponent is casting 2 mana 4/5s you die before consuming aberration hits the field. Because even if you do manage to cast the fucker you have now tapped out and you're going to die to whatever else they have.

The point isn't to have a "graveyard based stats" creature, which is why you cannot compare the two. We don't care where he's getting his power from, just that can easily be a 3/4 or a 4/5 on turn two with easy color requirements (ie, your opponent does a T1 ponder, you cast some T1 instant and crack a fetchland, or your opponent does a T1 Birds of Paradise, which you Lightning Bolt, and a fetchland goes off).

He's not filling a slot of "creature with power scaling with graveyard". He's filling a slot of "Two mana 3/4 that grows as the game goes on".

If you notice that otherwise best P/T you get for 2 mana is Watchwolf/autoc... (see all)

This card is a 5/5, we all know it, the people who voted .5/5 know it too. It's simply the strongest 2 drop beater they'll ever print. He's not broken either, mess with the graveyard a bit and he shrinks, leave it unchecked and someone gets a 5/6 for {G1}.
