After years of rallying from passionate fans, we finally got a chance to see the Snyder Cut of Justice League, which was for the most part a solid representation of director Zack Snyder’s original vision for the superhero team-up film. The 4-hour Snyder Cut featured elements that were completely omitted from the 2017 release, including the presence of one Darkseid (Ray Porter).

The Snyder Cut gave fans our first live-action interpretation of Darkseid, whose physical presence coupled with Ray Porter’s intimidating voice performance left fans wanting more from this take on the legendary DC Comics villain. Fans wanting to see some of the remarkable work from the artists on Justice League are in luck, with concept artist and creature designer Jerad S. Marantz revealing an unfinished, but still intense and detailed close-up of Darkseid.

You can check out Marantz’s Darkseid concept art from the Snyder Cut down below:
