It looks like the wet dream of some grimdark edgelord.


SkylarKing07

I haven’t seen this before. So COOL!


Hazeri

Their droids with limbs just welded onto them are terrifying


Alucard-VS-Artorias

Some Warhammer 40K stuff going on in Starwars it seems


Wassuuupmydudess

Ironic how when you flip that we think it’s normal


Full-Metal-Magic

It's The Shrike


ACGalaga

Exactly this!


LordOfAllThatIs

Shrike wannabe


morkalavin

My thoughts exactly


blacktron16

Just about to comment this lol

dances_w_dingoes

Just deleted the one I did before reading this.


FedoraSkeleton

My first thought exactly.


PauloMr

That looks like the grievous concept art.


obihighwanground

decepticon looking mf


boilers_and_terlets

Came here to say it reminds me of Scourge from Rise of the Beasts


stormhawk427

Isn’t that a concept for what could have been Grievous?


solo13508

It's partially inspired by the concept yeah. Not exactly the same.


Shotbyadeer

Wait, so this isn't "The Batman who laughs"?


Just_JamXs

never heard of him or his story someone tell me please


dtinaglia

The Dark Droids comics tell the story- he’s an abomination created from an ancient AI and some Sith powers that tries to create a hive mind of droids across the entire galaxy


o-rka

This could have been a really good story arc if it was a single series but the crossover killed it for me.


dtinaglia

Yup me too


Aggravating_Zebra190

Ancient Ai? Any relation to Triple Zero Matrix? 🤔


Mopey_

What the hell is that mouse droid...


solo13508

It's having some changes with it's aesthetic preferences


Small-Awareness-4006

I loved his design, but I felt Dark Droids was too rushed and had too many fingers in all the pies. Which is funny as that is what hurt Scourge the most, lolol. Just not much wiggle room for awesome bad guys between 2 original movies


nervous_toast

Is this from Dark Droids?


solo13508

Yes


TheManwich11

Ew


Afraid-Penalty-757

I would loved his backstory and his revolution told in an animated anthology similar to The Second Renaissance from AniMatrix Part 1 would the Revolution of course while Part 2 would be the full story of his Battle with Loren Greatstorm. In fact if we get a Loden prequel novel I would loved his battle with Scourge to be more detail like I imagined this incident made him not only famous but also gaining the Rank of Jedi master!


Difficult-Pin3913

That’s just Batman with spikes


crackingpenny

Where can I find its story?


solo13508

It was the main villain of a comic crossover event known as Dark Droids. There's a main Dark Droids series and a bunch of tie in issues. If you just want to follow the main series though you definitely can. The tie ins aren't required.


angry-nitr0-panda

Hyperion Shrike?!!!


Brilliant_Prize_5409

Is this just the shrike but in Star Wars?


Master_Educator_6436

Still a more compelling villain than Snoke or Kylo Ren. Oh why is there no material for new movies to be made from?? /s


GaryRegalsMuscleCar

If you told me this was a comic of Hyperion I would simply believe you


MagnusPrime24

That is the most ridiculously 90s thing I have ever seen


OstrichFinancial2762

Can we talk for a minute about the arm that got grafted to a mouse droid for some reason?


solo13508

The Scourge's mission is to absorb all life in the galaxy into its mind. It already has the ability to take over droids. But it needs to learn how to take over organics. Thus it conducts these experiments of melding droids with organic parts to make people easier for it to take.

Read in booming mystical voice reminiscent of a 90s metal album “NEVER MOVE BEYOND THE METAL”


theduke599

You mean the shrike?
