So since in khans of tarkir we are going to see a lot of sarhkan val does that mean we will see bolas. Also the voice in Val's head seems to be ugin whom which bolas claims to have killed so we may see ugin planning to dethrone bolas (which could actually be a cool duel deck) using val. Just my theory on bolas's plans feel free to post your theories
Sarkhon the mad has an image of a colorless dragon in the background, and since it's rumored that Ugin is the dragon talking to Sarkhan, I'm assuming that's what the colorless dragon is.
Other then that there is Ghostfire, but Ugin is named in a few flavor texts on some cards.
Sarkhan is goin back home, my thought is by the direction of Ugin.

I know the chances of this is next to zero, but I want to see a mono-white Nicol Bolas :D

cr14mson, Nicol Bolas is basically the main antagonist in the entire multiverse. The chances of there being a mono-white version of him aren't next to zero, they are definitely zero :P

You know I actually own a Sarkhan the Mad and never noticed the colorless dragon in the background

It's head is over his shoulder on the top right corner and the wing (maybe tail can't tell from the pic on here and have not looked at mine yet) is on the left side that's all I can see on here

I see bits of it. It would probably be clearer with a larger image.

It's eye is that white spot just below the mana cost and the teeth are right below the eye his bottom jaw is behind the bottom of sarkhan's staff

But y'all are all asking the wrong question, the real question is why the fuck did Lord Bolas kill Ugin and send Sorin to zendekar to release the Eldrazi in the first place?

You can get a better picture of the dragon from this.

Also.. "Kill". The voice in Sarkhan's head mentions that Nicol Bolas lies about that.

Much clearer image there sometimes the art gets cut/lost in the shrinking to card size this is a classic example

Uh. Sarkhan Vol ?
Val.
lol
I dunno. It's likely, but I vaguely recall Wizards saying this is going to be based more on Sarkhan's backstory as he's still currently possessed by Bolas in the story.
