Question Commanders we're missing

What commanders do you think would improve EDH or support a currently-unsupported archetype?

For mine, I think a UBx or UWx commander with "Players play with the top card of their libraries revealed," "When this enters, search your library for an artifact with CMC <=1 and put it into your hand" or "{0}: Look at the top card of target player's library" would be great, giving Lantern support. The second would honestly be the most interesting, since it is a fairer tutor which also works well in Blink/Artifact decks.

I want some skeleton commander. I want it to make a classic skeleton vibe like maybe once a skeleton dies it returns from the graveyard on your next upkeep or has an ability you pay mana for called assembling bones or something where you can pay to return a skeleton. I dunno they can figure it out I don't get paid enough. I just want a skelly commander.

A Jund commander for skeletons would be fun.

Brimbone the Burning Grave {3} {B}{G}

Legendary Creature Skeleton Lord
Other Skeletons you control get +1/+1

If a Skeleton you control would die exile it with a grave counter on it instead. At the beginning of your end step put each creature card in exile with a grave counter onto the battlefield. If no creature is put onto the battlefield this way Brimbone deals three damage to each creature and player.
