    6 Skull Face Is Major Zero

    TheRumour:OneofthebigmysteriesofThePhantomPainsofaristheidentityofSkullFace,the

    villainous,heavilydeformedXOFcommanderwho,strangelyenough,weevenseeridinginajeep

    withBigBossinthelatesttrailerastheyarriveataMetalGearhangar.Earlyspeculationtended

    towardsthe

    idea

    that

    perhaps

    Skull

    Face

    was

    Volgin,

    who

    had

    somehow

    survived

    his

    apparent

    demiseinMGS3,andthiswasfurtherfueledbythefieryapparitionofVolginthatisseeninthe

    hospitalsectionofThePhantomPain:foreshadowing,perhaps?Still,afarmoreinteresting(and

    likely)suggestionisthatSkullFaceis,infact,MajorZerohimself.HowLikelyIsIt?HideoKojima

    tohisliteralphysicalappearance,couldalsobeahintthat,likeClayface,SkullFaceisamasterof

    disguise, and his grotesque appearance ismerely an elaboratemask.One key factorworking

    againstthe

    theory

    is

    that

    Skull

    Face

    had

    been

    plotting

    to

    have

    Zero

    assassinated,
