This was my take on Mysterio. My main inspiration was a desire to update the somewhat goofy design of the classic costume, and create a true villain. When Beenox took over the project later that year, (which became Shattered Dimensions) they used this concept unaltered for their Mysterio boss fight. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/52ce1689e4b01eaf50880894/52ce17a3e4b0739fe8b62e69/52ce5428e4b0ea3d34db5d2c/1389254828297/carnage_color_04a.jpg Concept Art and Illustration - Carnage Concept Another concept from the cancelled Spider-Man game.
