Croc is back to his normal self, as happened in the marvelous world of off-screen action. And now he's determined to make sure Thorn is NOT his normal self for much longer! He's managed to trap the poor virusfellow and pin him with a hacking crest that's destroying his defenses and overriding his AI. Looks like it's his turn to be a slave again!
Sorry for the comparatively poor coloring; this is an older pic I retroactively placed here in "continuity".
