Description

Continuing the series of MLP villains engraved in black Baileys bottles, my third bottle features king Sombra. Among the MLP villains I think he may be the one with the most unexploited potential in the series (while there are some very interesting comics about him).

I see valid points in both views and am not contradicting a point of the show being to reform villains through friendship.  
I just think that with a long, elaborate and long buildup the end seemed to fall a bit short to me and also left a lot of questions open (about the umbras in particular). A good story which I very much like, but which (just my personal opinion) could have been improved if given a bit more time towards the end to match the great buildup.

I also am far from discarding the comics. Far from it ;) I love them.  
Perhaps a few pages more or an another comic making the reformation more of a gradual process rather than a comperatively sudden event would have appeared better to me.  
Maybe a vicious side of me just likes for some of the villains to remain unreformed lest lack of evil for comparison makes the ponies forget how to tell good from it ;)

Aye, though this still leaves the option for him to be picked up in the show once again. I like his origin story in the comics, but I must say I found his reformation in the end a bit too rushed.

The comics are officially canon as long as they don’t contradict the show. So Sombra has been reformed and is off with Radiant Hope trying to find the pieces of Princess Amore.
