	So... is he dead? dear God, i hope so, and i don't even believe in God. Durge is lamer than a very lame thing. with all the references to Cobra Commander and the Thing (John Carpenter, not orange-and-rocky-and-"it's clobberin' time!") and whatever, there are two things that he definitely reminds me of that don't seem to have been mentioned yet. when Obi-Wan skewered him with his lightsaber, i immediately thought of the Maccabree warriors from the later issues of the Marvel comics. also, after he crashed into the control room and the Clone Troopers blew him into a smoking crater, when his gooey tentacles came out of the hole again and he crawled out i kept expecting him to scream "KAAAANEEEDAAAAAAAA!!!!" it looked almost exactly like the scene at the end of Akira* where Tetsuo loses control... ________________________________ * though that might be more fun.... -----signature----- "Play is going to be for the 21st century what steam was to the 19th century."

	I never that that Durge would be a mass of squirming tentacle-like veins and muscles. -----signature----- Recipient of the Golden Ewok™ Statuette and Golden Ewok™ No-Prize. Goin for a Nobel and Knighting next Wanna win a Lannik™? Impress me. Peace out.

	Neither did I... but the more I think about it and re-read the comics and his Databank entry, the more it makes sense to me. -----signature----- Lieutenant Colonel 9-LOM "Syntax" Corsair Squadron Commanding Officer CRS Vigilant - http://www.renegadewing.com/ "That's me, the life of the party" -- 9-LOM, 'One for the Money' "Flying is for droids" -- Obi-Wan Kenobi, 'Revenge of the Sith'

	Well technically Boba or Jango aren't true mandalorian. Jango had some skill of the mandalorians, and Boba mostly learned his stuff from his father or by himself. actually, that's not true. Jango Fett is a true Mandalorian, Boba perhaps less so since there were no other Mandalorians alive during his lifetime. and I beg to debate that the true mandalorians are not really dead. Just silent. well, Jan Duursema, the current primary artist for SW: Republic confirmed that as of right now, LFL is essentially treating the Marvel Mandalorian material as basically the collected tall tales of Fenn Shysa. essentially, according to the dominant view at LFL right now, Jaster's group which was massacred by Dooku's Jedi at Galidraan were the last true Mandalorians, which would make Jango Fett the last surviving Mandalorian until Boba revives the order in the NJO period. as it stands right now, all the Marvel stories of the warriors of the Mandalore system are basically the concoctions of Fenn Shysa, who himself was never a Mandalorian at all, just someone like Jodo Kast who got himself a set of armor somehow and made up a bunch of stories about fighting in the Clone Wars with Boba Fett. Randy at Dark Horse seems to want to change that, and integrate the Marvel stories into current Clone Wars continuity, but it doesn't seem to be likely. -----signature----- "Play is going to be for the 21st century what steam was to the 19th century."

	Actually Fenn Shysa is Mandalorian by blood, . He is a citizen of Mandalore, . That is covered in gamer #7 or so, and also NEGTC, .

	Thought I'd dig this back up, in light of a recent discovery. The preview of Republic #60 contains the following line: "Just shoot him now and join Durge on the battlefront."

	I kept telling everyone he survived (the puddle did not "recede" off screen it clearly slithered away), few believed me. So, like Triumph, I POOP ON YOU! You can't kill Durge that easily. -----signature----- Peace to corrupt, no less than war to waste.

	If Durge did survive the Clone Wars. I'd love to see Durge duke it off with Boba, maybe post NJO. That would really be something (though I'm placing my money on our favorite clone bountry hunter) Maybe Dooku cloned Durge, retrieved part of Durge to regenerate. -----signature----- Fleet Junkie and Proud!

	Maybe Dooku cloned Durge, retrieved part of Durge to regenerate. Personally, I have no problem with Durge surviving Muunilinst. My concern is this: if he can completely recover from that in under a year, then what the hell did the Mandalorians do to him that took 100 years? -----signature----- Mike Cooper's Star Wars Blog http://blogs.starwars.com/coopertfn "Your tongues can't repel flavor of that magnitude!"

	then what the hell did the Mandalorians do to him that took 100 years? I've been wondering this myself. Maybe they blasted him into a million pieces and then sent each and every one of those pieces to a milllion different locations in the galaxy. So it took Durge a century to glue himself back together

	But would each little piece possess enough sense to get from one planet to another? Merging back together when in close proximity is one thing, but getting on a shuttle and flying to a specific planet on the other side of the galaxy is something else. -----signature----- Mike Cooper's Star Wars Blog http://blogs.starwars.com/coopertfn "Your tongues can't repel flavor of that magnitude!"

	Would it really surprise you, though? BTW, has something changed? I thought it was a thousand years. ?:\| Oh, and I've got a new Durge theory: In the end, they blast him into gooey bits and dump them into the center of some obscure gas giant. Which happens, by pure coincidence, to be the planet Yavin. Thus, thirty years or so later, Durge finds himself back in possession of not only a body, but a fresh, new Sun Crusher. -Paul -----signature----- So this is how liberty dies... with thunderous applause.

	Durge armed with a Sun Crusher... That should be the new enemy in Troy Denning's upcoming trilogy!!

	It's eerily fitting. An indestructible villain with an indestructible spaceship. I just don't know how they could write themselves out of that corner and have the good guys win.
