Oh boy... For a while I thought of him as flat, a very one-note villain. However, after seeing him in Hacker, (and especially Beta) I don't think he is as one-dimensional as he used to be. Don't get me wrong, I love powerful, threatening, evil characters who use blades and are commonly associated with the color red (Wolf from The Last Wish and Lord Shen from Kung Fu Panda 2) but Dark has always lacked that depth that draws me to characters like King and Vic.

Now, though, he's still not up there with King and Vic IMO, but he does have a bit more of a reason for why he does what he does: He simply enjoys it. It brings him joy like a little kid on Christmas, and that's enough to not totally make him flat. He's just partially flat. Not to mention his new powers revealed in Hacker, that's really cool and I can't wait to see him in action. I'll have to move Darkie up my character rankings when I post them...

Do you think that there's ever gonna be something like this in Alan's channel, TDL teaming up with everyone else to fight a really dangerous and powerful threat?

Just like how Optimus and Megatron always team up to fight Unicron in literally every Transformers show ever.

Oh heck no. Dark is the "really dangerous and powerful threat." I'd imagine he enjoys that title.

Well, if SC outclasses him, he physically can't enjoy it anymore.

Chaos:

No... not when he's dead.

And now he's alive. So...truce?

He still ended SC's friends, so SC's gonna have to end him.

Hasn't SC done that already?

Yeah but "Somehow [The Dark Lord] returned."

At this point, I'd say that they're currently even. I just want to see a greater threat like Chaos in AvA or something...
