King Sombra Fan Club

Well king so bra artwork is amazing and people can get creative with art about him.

Shame not many do that, plus we should get an episode of king sombra since he has such potential to be such an epic character

Augh, I'd love to see a new episode with him in it, but I'm largely satisfied with what we have. Along with the episode, he is a central character in the Reflections arc of the comics, has a small but of backstory in one of the Friends Forever comics, and he has quite a few GREAT fan works; including my ultimate fave:

My goodness the flow of Sombra pictures have been rather slow in recent months. Time for some new material! 

 

 

 

 

 

Where did you find that comic? 

[Ashen Pathfinder 16,161]

Our glorious king in all of his wonderful majesty.

Thank you so much for recommending this by the way, I loved it! A truly beautiful tragedy of my favourite FIM villain

 

Whilst I'm here, I always thought this shot was awesome :

I'm so glad you enjoyed that!

 

And that's one of Sombra's more badass poses in the episode. <3

I think this one's officially my favorite:

Thanks to @ for sharing this!

 

Spike is now the enemy.

@@PathfinderCS,

 

To be fair, I think the real Heart's magic makes it indestructible against things like that.

 

Would explain why he over-trapped it instead of just kicking it in lava or something (that, and it was heavily implied he wanted to use it as a doomsday weapon).

King Sombra's not a bad villain, he just never really got a chance to shine. I'm still hoping for him to appear in another episode, but if that never comes to be, at least I have stuff like this to look at...

Found this beauty. Listen to your heart's content.

I LOVE orchestral-ish pieces like this, and any dealing with Sombra is just an added treat!

This is what I've been struggling with for hours. Couldn't have done it without you.

I'm glad I was helpful to you then!

Ok let me just start by saying that I believe King Sombra is the best villain in MLP. Ever. He not only enslaved a kingdom but he thoroughly pulled off the "evil dictator" look. I believed he was a bad ass villain. Which is more than I can and will say about some other villains. Anyway I have a question. Does King Sombra have an heir? If so who is he/she? whats his/her name? if not then I will just implement my own ideals as to how his heir would turn out.

Going by the show and the comics, we really have no idea. No mention of an heir was mentioned, so it's hard to tell.

[Cerulean Wings 176]

To be honest I was hoping he did not so that I could exercise my creativity. I already have a name I wanted to use so we shall see where it goes.

[TheJLeeTeam 914]

Why didn't I think of this before?

 

Sombra is like the pony version of Ganondorf because both are dark kings.

 

Oh and Ganondorf also had a steed so maybe I should draw Ganondorf riding Sombra sometime.

[Ashen Pathfinder 16,161]

All right, there is a serious lack of content in recent months. Let's change that; shall we?

I like King Sombra a lot. He is a character that has so much potential. Love how he seems to be the personification of fear.

[Ashen Pathfinder 16,161]

Guess what!

 

MORE ART! THE KING AWAKENS!!!

 

[JonasDarkmane 19,785]

He is my favorite.

 

I consider him the most dangerous villain the Mane 6 have ever faced. He managed to enslave an entire race and take over an Empire. He was clearly really powerful especially in dark magic. He was smart as well, setting down traps. He did not have the same kind of traps. The only way to get to the stairs leading down was by using dark magic, however, to get through the door you had to use good magic (in case someone who knew dark magic would get through his secret entrance). To me that shows high level of intelligence.

 

Cadance (who is an alicorn) had to keep up a constant shield to be able to protect the Empire, otherwise (I presume) Sombra would have steamrolled everypony.

 

I consider him also the most evil, he clearly seemed to enjoy torture other ponies minds (he was pretty much burned within every crystal ponies mind, having pretty much scarred them for life). He seemed also to having enslaved the crystal ponies for amusement. If that is not evil, than I don't know what is

He was so dangerous that he had to be killed (the only one to be killed except for a beehive that was destroyed by Tirek :comeatus: ).

 

I find it kinda unfair how little he talked in the TV show, he had such potential. I've enjoyed reading the comics where he has made appearance (in flashbacks about the past).

 

Oh yeah, I think I have to post this (if no one has posted this before that is to say).

Willy Sombra raises a valid point.

I share in your enthusiasm friend.

 

Though I will say that I personally believe his lack of speaking lines in the series actually a benefit to him. A villain who talks too much can sometimes be seen as a little too arrogant. I loved Chrysalis & all, but her mouth got her in trouble.

 

Granted Tirek and Discord are good examples of vocal villains done right, but I think Sombra as a silent (or rather, not as mouthy) villain works as well. To me, it just shows he's cool & calculated.

It also raises more curiosity. Makes me want to know him more. Makes him really mysterious and dark
