A combinatorial category Disk was introduced by André Joyal to play a role in his definition of weak $\omega$-category. He defined the category $\Theta$ to be dual to Disk. In the ensuing literature, a more concrete description of $\Theta$ was provided. In this paper we provide another proof of the dual equivalence and introduce various categories equivalent to Disk or $\Theta$, each providing a helpful viewpoint.
