You're saying the colour of the form changes? Or that the detail around the edges changes, thereby making it look darker?
The former can only be the result of something like mixed shades, resolving to one after the merge - perhaps you have more than one flavour of black in there? Illy won't make up colours, unless you're flattening a gradient or layer colour mode.
The second is unavoidable, but is not as bad as first might seem - tiny changes in the small scale of vectors can sometimes lead to exaggerated artefacts when displayed on-screen.
