“He was once a great warrior who had complete mastery of Shatterspin. His devotion to the Forbidden Five was absolute, and he did his best to lead the Clan in their ways after they were gone.”

Lord Argus was a formidable warrior of the Wolf Clan who held deep respect for the Forbidden Five. Although he wasn’t an Elemental Master, he tried to perform Shatterspin, having dedicated himself to understanding its principles but therefore fell victim to a terrible curse which transformed him into a lycanthrope known as the Lycan King.

History[]

Background[]

Lord Argus was a member of the Wolf Clan who did not have a Wolf Mask or Elemental Power, yet showed to be loyal to the Forbidden Five and tried to master Shatterspin.

After the Forbidden Five were exiled, Argus became the leader of the Wolf Clan. During this time, Zaiden Kane influenced Argus, believing him to be a potential sixth member of the Forbidden Five. Argus then struck the Gong of Shattering, which unleashed a curse on the Wyldness, putting it into a state of half-existence as well as transforming Lord Argus into the Lycan King. The Lycan King was put under Zaiden Kane's control as he was forced to wear the Spectral Crown. Against his will, the Lycan King attacked the wolf warriors turning them to stone.

Shatterspin Issue 1[]

The Lycan King stared down at the Children of the Wolf as they tried to wake up an unconscious Garmadon.

Shatterspin Issue 2[]

The Lycan King attacked Asa after the latter picked up the Mallet of Shattering. Warby jumped on Asa and pushed them both away from the Lycan King's attack. Zuri tried to slow the Lycan King down by using a slingshot. The children ran away and the Lycan King tried to chase after them but was unable to get through the gorge. Warby and Asa taunted the beast. In retaliation, the Lycan King struck the gorge, causing it to crumble. Later, from under the ruble, Lycan King howled. A few moments after Garmadon performed Shatterspin and punched the rubble, the Lycan King howled again. Garmadon and the children dodged the attack.

Trivia[]

  • He is the fifth character to have the title of Lord, after Garmadon, Belgrave, Mogra, and Ras. However, chronologically he is the first, as he was alive thousands of years before the events of the series.
    • After Mogra, he is the second antagonist in a comic series to have the title of Lord.
    • Similarly, he is the second (but chronologically first) Lord to come from the Wyldness, the other one being Ras.
  • Like the Oni, he's capable of petrifying people with howls while in wolf form.
