Did anyone else notice a very atris like figure in the council. Was it reven or the exile in the council. I can see it being either of them.

Pretty much. The comics are already "off" with Revan's dates and other business.

Haazen has the exact same limbs replaced with machines that Sion has covered, is missing the same eye, and is wearing the same clothes. But on the other hand, I can see that he could have been made to look a lot closer to Sion if that were the case. There could be a plot reason for the appearance changes, but I'd refrain on speculation until there's more info. I can see reasons for it going either way. The remarkable similarities do suggest some connection; maybe Sion, whoever he is, mutilates those limbs in honor of Haazen or something. Or maybe Haazen just bulked up and got a synthflesh covering for his shoulder. Or he tried using the dark side to regrow his limbs.

Krynda/Kreia, again, I can see multiple sides. The name similarity, being a powerful seer, the age, the passing comment about giving up her eyes for the vision of a Miraluka. Kreia doesn't have mole, though, and for some reason I have a feeling that this isn't the case. Maybe Lucien has an aunt Kreia from that side of the family.

On the other hand, the Mystery Jedi is so Revan it isn't funny. Getting involved in the war against the wishes of the council, bringing other Jedi into it, unseen face, and that drop of the word "revanchism"? If that's a red herring, it's a mighty big one.

So what does that have to do with these comics. Kreia said that Nihilus and Sion were spawned from the Mandalorian Wars. Sion himself says he was on Korriban during the Jedi Civil War when the Academy went into chaos after Uthar Wynn fell to Revan. I highly doubt he would of took a backseat to Uthar if he was Haazen. I give Brian more credit than that to draw an anorexic Sion.


1. I doubt their wounds have anything to do with the Mandalorian Wars. I assumed she meant they turned to the Dark Side then.

2. Who says he's not visiting inbetween visits.

3. Well you may be doubting wrong.

4. Geez, does the possibility he does some training under Kreia seem THAT much more crazy than Lucien gets horribly disfigured in the EXACT SAME MANNER as his master?

What?

Haazen is a failed padawan with little apparent Force ability, some combat ability but he's in a subservient position to Krynda for thirty years, and she doesn't seem to be teaching him. Look at how Lucien treats him! He never completed his training, and he's mostly cyborg. Why would he necessarily immediately rise to the top of the Korriban totem pole?

We'll see Sabbac or not it seems.

I also bet Danthomir.

I'll see your five hundred credits and raise you Kiffex and Kiffu.

EDIT: Dangit, I was going to edit that into my other post, then got distracted. Sorry.

Thinks: But what if they do something crazy like that? I may lose the entire Sector?

We're betting planets now? I really need to get around to playing KOTOR so I can throw in my crazy theories too... wink


Solid issue, BTW, definitely sets up some interesting mysteries.

Word.

So, can we finally agree that Krynda is the associate?

I was reading the comic again just now and the hooded figure that meets with the Council just before Lucien does doesnt't scream "REVAN" to me. I guess because I didn't see pre-mindwipe Revan doing any talking. But it does seem like the character might be Revan.

Also I don't believe Haazen (cool character) will be Sion, though he does look a lot like him. He seems like a General Grievous type character... a prelude of what's to come.

Now, I am not going around saying "this character will be this character" but after playing Kotor 2 a billion times I did notice Sion and Kreia had almost a "mother/son" relationship. During the game it always seemed Sion was jealous of the Exile because Kreia seemed to "love" the Exile so much. It also seemed like Sion would do anything to please Kreia. This seems so much like the relationship Lucien and his mother has. He tries so much to please her but she is more focused on "bigger things".

Just throwing that out there. Might be true... might not.

How the heck did he lead an army in the wars then? He must have been a good mimer.

I'm sure you know what I mean, if not then you need to play Kotor.

The line "You see that I was right, now, don't you? The truth is written in blood!" is just something I don't see Revan saying even though this might be pre-mindwipe Revan, who is not my character. If anyone could guess at what this line might refer to I would be much obliged.

Guess: The only way to save the Order is targeted killing? Lucien and co. felt they needed to kill their Padawans. Revan believes it's needed on a larger scale.

I thought it is was interesting to see that lucien was the least powerful memeber of his group, like Zayne was precieved to be.
