Where he going - he don't need wings.

Aren't the wings described as vestigial, withered away almost?

Rudimentary is the term that was used; but then they were also 'long and narrow'.

Love it.

I'm just gonna leave this quote here, from Del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosity:

"A custom made box holds stereoscopic photographs of the maquettes from the as-yet-unmade At the Mountains of Madness, a memento of eight months  intense artistic development and preproduction planning. The original sculptures are far too large for the Rain Room. 'I'll need a whole Lovecraft room- which I'll build if we make the movie,' says Guillermo."

That... is awesome.

I f**king love that strip. Cracks me up every time.

Cthulhu's face is just something.

Every time I read that it makes me wish that the die was real
