I personally prefer Sorin, Lord of Innistrad. That said, especially in Commander, Sorin Markov's -3 (Target opponent's life total becomes 10) is just mean.
In terms of spooky art, I've always really loved Horobi's Whisper. You don't have a lot of removal in there, by the looks of it, so it's possible that the fact that it's a worse Doom Blade would be irrelevant - arguably, bad removal is better than no removal, even in Commander.
On the subject of board wipes, they can be vital against some of my decks. I personally don't like using them, precisely because I don't like being on the receiving end of them. Whenever I've seen Commander being played by others, though, it seems like people devote as much as a tenth of their deck to spells that reset the board. The few times I've played multiplayer games with strangers, it was almost impossible for anyone to build up a board state because the moment a player fell behind, they used a wipe. That's just not the kind of Magic I want to play when I play Commander, personally.
