Appears to be a coming payoff of Quin's sub rosa agenda from the past couple issues.

("Morgukai clones"? Spaarti? Kaminoan? None Of The Above?)


Star Wars: Republic #76

Writer: John Ostrander

Two Jedi heroes have fallen and the Republic forces on Saleucami are on the verge of being overrun by the Separatist's [sic] Morgukai clones.

As the Sith move toward their final revenge, it seems only one Jedi can help piece together a plan that might yet give the Republic a chance for victory. Unfortunately, that Jedi is Quinlan Vos -- and his plan may be the final betrayal of all the Republic forces on Saleucami!

Available worldwide from Dark Horse Comics (available in the UK from Titan)

Looks like Quin's back to a green lightsaber. I'd guess that Oppo Rancisis was one of the fallen heroes, but who'd be the other? Tholme?

Oppo's all but certain to be one of the "fallen Jedi"; dunno about Tholme, though.

(John? Jan? Anything you'd care to share with the room?)

Why is Oppo Rancisis likely to be fallen? Did I miss something?

My prediction is that Quin and Aayla will be considered fallen and that they'll both come back. But we'll see.

I'm thinking the other Jedi has to be Tholme. The blurb for 75 says-

Meanwhile, Tholme confronts his former padawan, and the battle between them has deadly consequences!

We know Quin doesn't die, so...

I'm in the mood for a good Jedi death. I hope Rancisis's Battle Meditation doesn't get in the way of that.

On the other leg, Bulq has waited his turn patiently . . .


According to Jan, that cover is a draft, the colours aren't final.

As I predicted sora has obviously taken care of master Rancis And master tholme has been also been killed by Quillan. I cant wait to see how it goes down.

Nooooo! Oppo! I love Oppo, why does he have to die?

Damn you Sora Bulq!

I'm intrigued. I can't wait to read how the poodoo hits the fan in #76. I like what they did with Quinlan's character-the questions surrounding him; is he a traitor, if he is does he realize it... it's all so very intriguing with several interesting twists upcoming, I think.
