::''The Thorned Hulk, a massive spike-encrusted monster, looks to be quite a bruiser. Big, slow, and powerful, this creature has been seen in several older Act One screenshots. However it was most recently seen in a [[:Image:1999-sept23.jpg|screenshot]] from Act Three, and speculation holds that they might not be found in Act One in the final game, being too powerful for that early act. This monster was featured in an early D2 multiple render piece titled "[[Anatomy of a the Thorned Hulk" ]] which showed the intricate process by which Blizzard North creates the monsters for the game.
Both screenshot links are live, the first one restored for this FotD archive section, with the old and somewhat amusing caption intact. The speculation about monster location proved accurate here, as we don't see Thorned Hulks until Act Three in the final game.
