[[File:Marx's wish KSS.png|thumb|left|200px|Marx wishing to Nova for control over Popstar]] | |||
[[File: | Marx first appears at the beginning and end of Milky Way Wishes, a game mode of ''{{KSS KFP}}'' and ''Kirby Super Star Ultra''. Initially, Marx seems to be a friendly character. He alerts [[Kirby]] that the Sun and the Moon of [[Popstar|Pop Star]] are fighting, and sends Kirby on an adventure to gather the power of the surrounding stars and awaken [[Galactic Nova|Nova]]. | ||
Marx | |||
After completing the levels, Kirby manages to awaken Nova. Just as Kirby wishes for the Sun and Moon to stop fighting, Marx appears and knocks Kirby out the way. In an act of betrayal, Marx wishes to rule Pop Star, and reveals that he started the fight between the Sun and Moon, as part of his plot to rule Pop Star. Nova accepts his wish and transforms Marx into a more powerful form, complete with a pair of two large wings. Marx sends Nova on a collision course into Pop Star. After destroying Nova, Kirby goes after Marx, and the two engage in a final boss fight. Like most other bosses, Kirby must continue to hit Marx until he gets defeated. | |||

While in battle, Marx teleports frequently and taunts Kirby with his high-pitched laugh. Some of his many attacks include: | |||
*Throwing purplish-white crescents at Kirby | |||
*Flying above to drop seeds that rapidly grow into spiked vines | |||
*Appearing on the ground as a shadow and then suddenly springing out | |||
*Spewing bombs that turn into spheres of ice when they get near Kirby | |||
*Firing arrows from either side of the screen | |||
*Spewing out a massive, large beam taking up most of the screen | |||
*Splitting into two halves and forming a black hole in the center; if Kirby is sucked in, he gets slammed into the ground, sustaining serious damage | |||
As Marx is defeated by Kirby, he is sent flying into Nova, causing it to explode. | |||
Marx is fought as one of the bosses in [[The Arena]]. In ''Kirby Super Star Ultra'', Marx has a role near the end of [[The True Arena]] mode. It is revealed that, after his destruction at the ending of Milky Way Wishes, Marx's body began to absorb remaining energy from Nova. With the power, Marx brought back his evil soul as [[Marx Soul]], the final boss of The True Arena. | |||

In ''[[Kirby Mass Attack]]'', Marx appears in the sub-game [[Kirby Brawlball]] as the fourth and final boss. He is much bigger than in his previous appearances. His Quad Cutter and Arrow Flurry attacks serve as objects that can push Kirby down. His Light Beam can freeze Kirby for a few seconds if he's caught in it. With his Black Hole attack, he will suck up random enemies, then shoot them out of his mouth. These enemies can't touch Kirby, but he can be sucked by the attack as well, which may cause the player to lose sight of him. His Vines appear as obstacles in the field. Copies of his original form, known as the '''Minimarx'''{{DataTitle}}, also appear in the field. Kirby can defeat him for two extra Kirby balls, though this can only be done up to five times. | |||
