And the loser of the month for November 2007 is...

King Mag!

The award this month goes to the former king of the planet Lira.  His backwater planet's biggest claim to fame is its native roses, which have medicinal properties, and are cared for by some hippie priestess that gets bent out of shape whenever strangers presume to manhandle them.

Years ago our flower king made a deal with King Zarkon and presumably Haggar to sell the roses to him as needed for the magical elixir that sustains his long life.  Relations between Doom and Lira were pretty good for a while because of that, and we even had a base there.

We also used planet Lira to stage a nice trap for Arus, but when things went badly and it turned out that princess Allura was going to croak from poison pollen exposure, Prince Lotor figured that his pal King Mag would give him the flowers he needed to save her.  Instead, the greedy geezer thought he'd try to extort the Prince of Doom and get some extra cash out of the deal.

You can imagine how that went over.

So instead of a nice payoff, King Mag got the proverbial thorn of his Liran rose up his ass and a nice golden headstone that says "Here Lies King Mag, Ruler of Lira, and Loser of the Month of November 2007".
