STAR WARS: LEGACY #9

Ongoing

Political relationships are often delicate constructs, even more so when the marriage is between two longtime enemies. When rightful Emperor Roan Fel reaches out to the remnants of the Galactic Alliance, the stage is set for serious distrust, if not outright betrayal. And to complicate matters, the Sith have dispatched one of their best agents to ensure the failure of the proposed alliance.

But Moff Nyna Calixte's agenda differs from that of her Sith masters, and she puts her own player into the mix- reactivating an agent who has been dormant for nearly two decades. Meanwhile, the question on everybody's mind: Where has Cade Skywalker gone?


EDIT- Revised interior and cover artist info with the correct names.

Weird cover. I'm guessing it's an interior, since that's certainly not Duurseman art.

Way to ruin the suspense for the "Broken" finale, solicitation guys. Sure, I didn't figure we'd lose anyone, but geeze...

Anyway: Nick, your dreams have come true.

Clearly Cade fell into a magical pool when he was a boy with his father.

Now when he's in hot water, he turns into a woman.

Yeah, that's gotta be interior art. First thing I thought when I saw that hair: anime. tongue

I... I'm not sure if I like it. The art is good, no question about it.... but it just doesn't feel Starwarsy to me, if you know what I mean. Perhaps its just the colors or style, but it strikes me as more of a superhero comic, with generic butt-kicking hero/antihero girl #8311, not something from Star Wars.

thinking I'll reserve judgement until I actually see more pics, particularly more interior art.

I concur. The art's jarring, to say the least. But, as you say, I'll wait 'til I see it in context to comment further.

It says the cover is done by Jan, and that's definately not her art, so it's probably interior art...

I see what you did there

It just occurred to me: in this issue or the one preceding it, we may finally get a look at the GA emblem. Hopefully it doesn't still incorporate that stupid bird.

I wonder about that agent... thinking Perhaps it is no one connected to the current characters, perhaps it is some character that has already been introduced... confused but if not and if that agent is she, then perhaps - totally baseless guess - we could see the mother of either Cade or Marasiah?

Supergirl artist Adam DeKraker makes his Star Wars debut!

This explains why the art looks superhero-y. tongue

This probably is like Legacy # 4, where they're giving Jan a break while giving us another adventure of Emperor Fel. Just my take.

Next question.

Does anyone else think this is Cade's sister?

Whoa. shock Good idea there. She does look a lot like Cade like other posters have said . . . thinking

Maybe that's why they're showing the issue off early. They're showing off his sister. thinking The fact that they hired the artist who draws Superman's cousin makes this even curiouser . . .

Isn't Adam DeKarker doing the art for #8?

Looks like Marasiah is being married to the Chief of State?

If she is the agent she most likely will not be the sister of Cade. Two reasons: First, she has been inactive almost 20 years. So she has to be at least almost 40 years old. Secondly, one of the authors proposed a very late birth date for Kol, about 91 ABY. So a sister is very unlikely. A mother or an aunt would be more likely. I think mother is the likeliest choice.

They also have been coy and outright misinformative about information as well. Also, she doesn't exactly look forty either.
