:At this stage I'm almost totally convinced that the Magician is simply an admirer of Mr Dark. The turning point came when I finally got the game and noticed that it contained no references to Mr Dark being the source of the invasion (which I had previously thought was the case). The information from the official site is reproduced in the manual, but the part about Mr Dark was removed, and so were the similarly erroneous sections about piranhas and Soldier insects. The mistake about Jano being Polokus was also corrected. I can only conclude that the site wasn't proof-read or fact-checked, allowing some incorrect information and an out-of-date picture of 'Mr Dark' to slip in. —[[User:Spiraldoor|Spiraldoor]] [[File:IconSpiralDoor.png|link=User:Spiraldoor]] 13:06, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

::That's the exact point I've written in the RPC after beating the game by myself. I also believe the Magician is just an admirer of Mr. Dark, not only due to the way the Reveal cutscene was made in terms of body language, but also by the inexistence of direct evidences for the contrary. --[[Image:Sparkle.gif]][[User:Haruka|Haruka]][[Image:Sparkle.gif]] 15:55, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

:::We can say that the guy in this artwork is totally Mr Dark [[File:Char-mr-dark.png|150px]], because the website describes him as the original Mr Dark from Rayman 1. Mr Dark's body is thinner than the Magician's, has enormous feet and wears a black robe instead of purple; the star pull-off may just represent that he just wanted to become like him. The fake wig on his head also may be an indirect symbol of his fanaticism (remember? he was blonde before!). If you look carefully, Mr Dark's body looks a lot like the Photographer's [[File:CrazyPhotographer-info-1.png|150px]], possibly due an early design for the teensies: bigger eyes, bigger hands and feet, thinner bodies, and stylized noses. It is possible that both were scrapped when the game became a sequel. Mr Dark supposedly died in the GBC version of Rayman 2, anyway...--[[User:Sergiomonty|Sergiomonty]] 22:41, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
