General Jark (ジャーク将軍, Jāku Shōgun) is the main antagonist in Kamen Rider Black RX. He is a military leader of the Crisis Empire and supreme commander of the invasion army. He was later forcefully transformed by Emperor Crisis into Strongest Monster Jark Midler (最強怪人ジャークミドラ, Saikyō Kaijin Jāku Midora).
History[]
Black RX[]
Jark has the loyalty of most under him as he initially leading the attacks until Crisis arrived. He actually cares about his subordinates and even saves Maribaron from being killed by Dasmader and attempts to avenge Gatezone and Bosgun after they were both destroyed by RX. Towards the end of the series, he was forcefully transformed by Crisis into a stronger warrior called Jark Midler to kill RX.
Jark Midler easily murdered the Sahara parents while X and Amazon rescued the Sahara children from his grasp. Afterwards, he easily defeated V3 and Riderman and challenged Black RX to a duel. When he was in the middle of the battle, the Sahara children made a failed attempt to repel him, but RX as RoboRider shielded the children. After Dasmader abandoned him for his failures, Jark was killed by RX with the Revolcane after a long battle.
Near death, Jark regressed to his normal form and proclaimed that Crisis was too powerful even for RX.
All Riders vs. Dai-Shocker[]

Jark reappears as one of the high commanders of the Dai-Shocker organization, an union of groups from multiple worlds. He sides with Shadowmoon after his coup. Eventually, Jark leads Dai-Shocker troops pursuing one of the last known remaining Riders, Diend. Initially he has the clear advantage in battle, but soon the battle turns as Kamen Rider Decade arrives. Shortly afterwards, he is destroyed by Diend's Dimension Shoot.
Let's Go Kamen Riders[]
In an alternate timeline created by Shocker obtaining a Cell medal in the past, which served as basis for the creation of their own Core Medal and the Shocker Greeed, Kamen Riders never appeared after the original two were defeated, and Japan fell in Shocker's hands. in the present of this alternate timeline, Shocker proposed an alliance that would unify the various organizations into an united front to conquer the entire world, but Jark initially rejected the proposal. The Crisis Empire and Gorgom actually wanted to eliminate humanity for their goals, not rule over them. However, the Great Leader said they should work together for now and worry about what they will do after the world is on their hands, getting Jark's approval for their alliance under Shocker. Later on, Jark and Apollogeist were part of the forces led by General Shadow that captured the rebels Eiji Hino and Kotaro Nogami. However, once they were freed, the Riders returned and the final battle started and the Great Leader was forced to take his Rock Great Leader form, the Jark of this timeline was seemingly killed by falling into a large fissure that opened as Earth was slowly destroyed by the presence of the Great Leader's final form.
Super Hero Taisen[]
Once again, Jark is revived in Super Hero Taisen as a commander of Dai-Shocker. He is first seen with the other commanders fighting the Gokaiger. He briefly faces GokaiBlue, and they are evenly matched before Decade enters in the battle, seemingly eliminating most of the Gokaiger. In the final battle, he is last seen fighting the Hikari Sentai Maskman and Kamen Rider Black alongside Shadow Moon. The Maskman used the Aura Power Meditation to paralyze the two of them, giving Black and Red Mask an opportunity for a Double Kick which destroyed both at once.
Kamen Rider Taisen[]
General Jark of Badan.
The deceased General Jark eventually returned as part of the Kingdom of the Dead, Badan Empire. He leads a squad of two Chaps and three Combat-Roids, intercepting Tsukasa as he rides on a borrowed Rose Attacker with Shu Aoi, the key to Badan's plan. However, Jark is met by the Showa Riders Black and Black RX. After the combatmen are dispatched, General Jark is destroyed by the two Blacks' Double Kick.

Super Hero Taisen GP[]
The Shocker army.
Through an alteration to history rewritten by Shocker's History Modifying Machine, General Jark is among the many monsters that serve the evil organization that rules the world in this alternate timeline created by Kamen Rider 3's assassination of the Double Riders in 1973. During the final battle against the Kamen Riders, General Jark is destroyed by Black RX's Revolcane. [Super Hero Taisen GP: Kamen Rider 3]
