3 - Who is "Dark Enerjak"?

Dark Enerjak is an alternate version of Knuckles in which he has been completely corrupted by the power of Enerjak's spirit. In the main Archie universe, Super Sonic was able to defeat Knuckles/Enerjak with the help of Locke (Knuckles' father), freeing Knuckles from the corruption, but Locke had to sacrifice himself in the process. However, in this alternate universe, Enerjak emerged victorious and devastated his world, leading the Dark Legion and draining the life force of all his enemies. In the end, Dark Enerjak only had his daughter, Lara-Su, and a weakened version of the Freedom Fighters to "play with".

2 - Meeting with Silver.

In the Archie universe before the reboot, Silver's future was still post-apocalyptic, and he was trained by Mammoth Mogul, a former villain who had fought Sonic. However, one day, a robotic version of Vector the Crocodile (also called "Prelate-V") appeared in Silver's universe and attacked him, but was defeated and had to flee back to his world. Silver ended up following Prelate-V and landed in the alternate universe of Dark Enerjak, which is how he met Lara-Su and the Freedom Fighters. But Dark Enerjak already had his eye on Silver and wanted to meet this "traveler" to fight him, steal his power, and have a worthy opponent.

1 - The clash between two forces.

Silver and Enerjak are two powerful characters in the Archie universe because they both possess a destructive capacity that most characters lack, and they prove it in this battle. Although Silver isn't very experienced with his powers yet, he has shown that he is quite capable of using them to destroy anything in his path, including islands. While Enerjak also has the ability to destroy islands and entire armies single-handedly, he has more experience with his powers and was therefore able to eliminate Super Sonic, Shadow, the Freedom Fighters, etc. However, when Enerjak used the life forces of several heroes to create Prelates and enrage Silver, Silver ended up using his powers to throw Enerjak into various obstacles and finished by throwing an island at the villain. Of course, this doesn't kill Enerjak, but after that, Silver realized that he can't let his hatred control him; instead, he used his powers to redirect Enerjak's energies against the villain, allowing Lara-Su to take advantage of this, and together they defeated Enerjak.

Extra - Why is it perfect?

I know I've been summarizing the events of the comic so far, but the reason the rivalry between the two is so great is because of the message the comic wanted to convey: Power Corrupts.

At the beginning of the arc, Mammoth Mogul and Edmund (an Echidna in Silver's future) warned Silver about using his powers in a radical and impulsive way, because he is still young and has much to learn about it. However, when Enerjak appeared, Silver began to succumb to his emotions, because Silver values ​​life and the hope of a better future for everyone, but Enerjak uses the Prelates to mock Silver and the heroes who died. When Silver threw the island at Enerjak, he lost control and realized what his mentors wanted to tell him, because power can turn you into a monster and Enerjak is a reflection of that. Yes, Enerjak is an irredeemable villain, but he was once a hero, and unfortunately, he let power take over him to the point of killing everyone he loved. That's the main reason I find the rivalry between the two perfect; they are both similar in certain ways and are powerful beings, but one is a reflection of what the other could have been.

We've reached the end, my friends.

I hope you enjoyed it.

I'm sorry if the summary wasn't very well explained, because I tend to get a little lost while writing.

🔥Enerjak🔥

Since I’ve been on a Sonic kick, I absolutely had to draw my favorite Sonic villain!

For those who don’t know, Enerjak is primarily depicted as a corrupted version of Knuckles - in this particular form, he spent 30 years destroying Mobius and plans to venture into other zones/dimensions to do the same…

This is still the most complicated piece I’ve drawn in a LONG time😵‍💫but it is the kind of thing that reminds me I do have talent, I just need more practice and to sharpen my eye. I referenced SO many panels for this and I think it paid off!

First things first, what happened to your eye?

Second, when did you become so... chill and less insane unlike your younger self.

And lastly, what caused you and Scarlette to get together as a couple?

Demo: "i know most of you like your "bunnie's" being with an "Antoine" and i respect that, she can go with anyone really, its just scarlette and I are around the same age in this universe and she sees Cutlass (our Antoine) as a friend, so just think of her as a completely different rabbit if you wish. Hm, ya know i wonder if Blockbuster will join me too eventually."

Julie-Su stood on her lonesome, dreads flowing in the wind; almost invisible in the light of dusk. In another lifetime, the slight whisper of the coming dawn would have illuminated her, reflecting off of her cybernetics - their absence was felt sorely. He had taken them; a fair tradeoff, a simple click of the fingers with such powers as his. No, it wasn’t the cybernetics that she missed… Everything else that they once had, everything that she once had; just as simply as he had left her bereft of her Legion scars, as if it were another click of his fingers - was gone. And each time, she, too, had agreed - it’s for the best, it’s an easy tradeoff, it’s what has to be done… She hadn’t been afraid to argue her case, but as time went on, she felt that voice get quieter and quieter. The realisation that they were no longer equals had come in the middle of the night. A lump, a bump, a strange swelling… Like a creeping sign, it grew, until it was impossible to deny - she was pregnant.

While Mobius can be the nicest guy, he also has his dark side. I think we see a lot of his manipulative nature in the show as he tries to get information from Loki even, so he would want to play mind games. He would use your memories against you, playing the most painful ones over and over as he pushed all the guilt onto you. It doesn't matter that it was beyond your control, you let it happen, you made the decisions leading up to it.

But when he loses his patience, he can just hit the control on your collar and send a nice zap through you. You don't want to take orders, zap, you don't want to give him a pretty smile, zap, you don't want to be good for him, zap.
