Nah I don't think its really 'Klan'-like (thats the Klu Klux Klan Olorin) but the helm seems to resemble the crest-headed Pterodactyl. I remember reading somewhere (a JRRT letter methinks) that the idea for the Nazgul winged beasts Tolkien received were from Pterodactyls which were newly discovered at the time (I THINK) so maybe Howe and Lee decide to take up on the idea and give the Witch King that look.
