the Arkeyan King (not confirmed to be Arkus, we don't know if Arkus was a person or not) was most likely deactivated, he was already a robot so defeating him just made him go offline, that's the lore we have as all the lore relating to the Arkeyans says they went into a "deep sleep", they aren't dead they're just turned off, and can and have been brought to life again plenty of times in the series particularly in the first half as for Drill-X, he wasn't technically destroyed, he also shut down, and we can also assume Grill-X from SC is just him being rebuilt and repurposed but it's unconfirmed whether they are the same character or a pair of separate ones
I better say it. The end of the comic was meant to be a reference to The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon, as some people have theorized that Spyro reincarnates, once a century. Though you don't really need to know much about The Legends trilogy to know that Malefor is just meant to be an evil and older counterpart to Spyro.
aight, so, one thing I have to point out is I think mr. Rodriguez accidentally made a second fight with Malefor canon, though it doesn't hurt the canon in any way and tbh adds some more possible context, let me explain So the comic (and Rodriguez by extension) at first glance makes the assumption that Cynder was freed from Malefor's grasp before Hex defeated him , but that is literally impossible in lore as other bios for Cynder mention how she has defeated Malefor literal centuries before SSA and possibly before becoming a Skylander, and Swap Force seems to solidify this as they were pretty much an entire generation of Skylanders lost in the eruption of Mount Cloudbreak, and after that a new generation was assembled by Eon (the Core Skylanders we see, with the likes of Spyro, Gill Grunt and Trigger Happy being the first) What seems to me to be the most logical assumption here is that Hex battled Malefor *twice*, once centuries ago which she became known for and twice after becoming a Skylander and after Spyro got recruited and turned Cynder good. It honestly would make perfect sense since Malefor was genuinely still active even after Hex defeated him the first time, Cynder still proves that as she definitely isn't hundreds of years old, and it honestly aligns with the dialouge from the comic more as it now fixes the "Hex defeated Malefor years ago, we thought he was gone for good" line, so yeah, this is unconfirmed by any means but this is my honest assumption that genuinely just fixes any inconsistency within the canon related to Malefor also as a side note, cool fact, in the Sticker Book it's said that the marks on Cynder's forehead are the Mark of Undead, which was "granted" to her by Malefor's minions when he corrupted her
Ok triyng tò help with the Spyro thing yes there are 2 Spyro but not in skylands in the Spyro franchise basically 3 of the Spyro games wich are called the Legends Trilogy focus on another Spyro that existed before the One of the og games and by extension the Spyro in skylanders and the Legend games Spyro fougth malephor with the cynder from those games and won meaning that probably malephor got the 2 mixed up
You know, considering how much of an impact Legend of Spyro trilogy made for Skylanders both comics and Skylanders Academy to include Malefor into their universe I think Spyro more than deserves his own movie nowadays with Malefor as the main villian. I know all 3 Spyro universes are all different continuities, but I find it interesting that despite being different they take at least one element from its predecessor(Hunter in Dawn of the Dragon and Malefor in Skylanders comics and TV show) I feel like Spyro now has enough meat to try his own cinematic universe like Sonic. It would've been cool to see Ripto, Malefor and Kaos on big screens and presented as dangerous threats.
@portalmasterdragon7326 well, yeah, but still it was marketed as the story with Spyro and it also had a Spyro as actual character in Imaginators. Like, I agree, the world of Skylanders shouldn't be a part of Spyro's movies, but allies like Flynn, Cali, Tessa, Hugo, main villians like Kaos, Golden Queen, the Darkness and even smaller villians like Mesmeralda can work in Spyro movie if being reworked.
@@ashesGeek but they belong in skylanders just use Spyro friends from the PS1 games in the movies not the cast of skylanders what did you got that from CGE
@@ashesGeek Skylands could easily be adapted to be just one of many worlds in another Spyro continuity. Honestly I hope TFB’s Spyro timeline incorporates stuff from all 3 Spyro continuities (Classic, Legends, and Skylanders) as a way to unite this rather divided fandom
Skylanders having a "No Killing" rule is really funny when you consider that they have no problem in destroying robots (Arkus and Drill-X)
You can’t kill a robot. They just turned them off.
@@Kidwithacat1 They turned them off PERMANENTLY.
@ nah, maybe with mags help and some magic they could be turned back on again.
the Arkeyan King (not confirmed to be Arkus, we don't know if Arkus was a person or not) was most likely deactivated, he was already a robot so defeating him just made him go offline, that's the lore we have as all the lore relating to the Arkeyans says they went into a "deep sleep", they aren't dead they're just turned off, and can and have been brought to life again plenty of times in the series particularly in the first half

Malefor is basically the Skylander version of William Afton and a Sith Lord.
He does have a skystone in superchargers
I’m glad to have the comics of skylanders. My favourite one is the prequel to skylanders trap team
Easily the best version of Malefor honestly
It would be cool if they got mark Hamil back to reprise his role
She Sky on my Lander until I Supercharge and Swap Force
Holy crap, you did it
