History

Dark of the Moon

In 150,082 CMT, Blackout instructed Serrator and Octoroo to follow him to Earth's Moon, where he intended to test the old experiment that he had just recovered from the wreckage of the Thunder Arrow. After flying to the Moon under his own power, Blackout summoned Serrator, who promptly materialized next to him via a sphere of red energy with Octoroo by his side. When Serrator asked Blackout what he required of them, Blackout replied that he felt that he needed an audience for what he was about to do, proceeding to open the crate to reveal a strange metal cube with glowing red circles on its sides. Blackout then placed his hands on the circles, which caused the top of the cube to open and a strange black mist to drift out. Warning Serrator and Octoroo to keep back in order not to "anger" the mist, Blackout watched with the demons as the mist left the Moon and flew towards Earth.

The trio were then interrupted by the sudden appearance of Nu-13, who materialized beside them with the urgent message that she needed their help to defeat Jack Noir and Lord English. When Blackout asked Nu who she was, Nu cryptically replied that she was an "agent of higher powers". Blackout was dissatisfied by the vagueness of Nu's answer and the fact that she appeared to be no more than a messenger, so he asserted that he would either speak to Nu's master or neither at all. At Blackout's insistence, Nu revealed the identity of her master as Akasha itself, demonstrating her allegiance by briefly opening several cracks in reality that allowed Akasha's light to bleed through into the area. Blackout was so intrigued by the reveal of Akasha that he agreed to help Nu, so Nu informed Blackout that he would be contacted when needed and teleported away as quickly as she arrived.

With Nu gone, Blackout suggested that they should get some rest. Although Serrator followed Blackout's advice by kneeling on the ground, Blackout pulled out his .45 Magnum and began shooting at random rocks, so Serrator tried to follow suit by using his staff to blast a large crater in the Moon's surface. When Octoroo said that he had a "bad feeling" about Nu, Blackout fired a warning shot above his head and told him to shut up, which greatly amused Serrator and Blackout. Serrator then asked Blackout what the black mist that he had unleashed upon Earth was, so Blackout explained that it was a dark matter-based entity that killed its victims by entering their bodies and remaining docile until it became hungry, at which point it would devour the host and reduce them to ash. Serrator replied that he found the concept fascinating and commented that he liked the company Blackout kept, to which Blackout replied that he liked the company that had he kept too until they - namely Kakamu, Malygos, Ynot - had betrayed him, which led him to vow that he would kill each of them in revenge.

It was then that F-Klak appeared behind Blackout to assure him that each of the aforementioned three would die in due time. While Blackout asked F-Klak who he was, F-Blackout appeared on a mountain in the distance, and Serrator and Octoroo stayed silent. After F-Klak replied "I am this multiverse's reckoning", F-Blackout approached the group to reassure Blackout that that title would belong to him. F-Klak argued that he had won control of the universe before he had even begun to fight F-Blackout, but F-Blackout begged to differ, promptly deciding that he would leave before the argument could escalate into a fight because he was pretty sure that the Moon still existed in their own time and he wanted to keep it that way. After F-Blackout left the scene via a portal, F-Klak instructed Blackout to kill the present version of Klak before following suit by also teleporting away. Blackout then told Serrator and Octoroo that they should head to Earth next, which was a notion that excited Serrator. Blackout took off and flew towards Earth while the demons followed inside a flying ball of energy.

Far Future

F-Blackout was "pretty sure" that the Moon still existed at the time of the Reckoning, which he assumed meant that he and F-Klak had never fought on it.
