The final battle! Dark Matter reveals his true form and fights Kirby one-on-one!

Dark Matter himself is a rather underexplored character I think. He's not the only one of his kind (Zero has at least 4 Dark Matter henchmen, so even though DM Blade reappeared in KDL3, there's still 3 others just like him), he is the only one who can transform the way he does (into a swordsman). I like to think he's 'special' and favored by Zero, though we have not met Zero yet. Its generally accepted that he returns in KDL3 with reinforcements to finish what he started in KDL2, this time with his master's help.

However, what's less well known, is that Dark Matter Swordsman is... surprisingly lonely! This is sub-canon and not mentioned directly in any game, but he targeted Dreamland because it's supposed to be a friendly place, and he's jealous. He honestly has no idea how to befriend anyone, maybe he isn't even familiar with the word 'friend'.

As I see it, friendships among Dark Matters are basically unheard of-- they're all 'bonded', but in a very formal way. Zero is their leader, commander, and parent, but they are very distant and hands-off, merely giving orders to the Dark Cloud and treating it as their army (its like an insect colony, I suppose). As such, Dark Matter Blade echoes this with his treatment of Gooey, Blob, and his non-Dark Matter subordinates. He 'respects' them, but he is distant with them and doesn't know what it means to 'love' them. Maybe if things had gone differently between him and Kirby, he'd be able to learn? Who can say...

also LOL im 85 days into this challenge!!!! I'm going to pause it in October so I can draw Insektober stuf again since that was fun & I know I can do one or the other, but not both at the same time!

Drew this poster of the Dark Matter Trilogy in the Kirby series. 

And I’m honestly quite impressed with how it turned out.
