the shadow boss can be really easy if you have the right abilities. if you have block and subversion on your combat bar, you will always have a back-up reserve of invincibility for when he powers his focus up to 100 for his one hit kill move. although, this only keeps sonny from dying, your teamates will most likely die in the first 5 rounds. stun moves or the disruption move arent reliable against the shadow boss, because he dodges like crazy.
FOR YOU BADGE JUNKIES: level 10 is a sh!t storm of bullets, but the boss is so easy you can do it without picking up any weapon powerups that level, and still beat him without getting hit. So if youre going for the 60 pointer badge, then to be on the safe side: at the very start of the level move your ship to either the upper left or upper right corner and leave them there. it will take a few minutes to get to the boss so go get a beer or something.
that, or feed the mystery pet, which gives you 50 mystery point per feed. if you were rich enough to put coins into the epic skill for mystery points, that works even after 100,000 points as well
