Awesome! 
And JJM is one of the authors of the new Indiana Jones comic, so...you never know... 
Also, it would not be surprising to expect such an adventure, now that Jarael looks like Lara Croft in #29. 
 You're right, she does.
I would like to see a KotOR adventure like that.

Also, I wonder how many of these Sith items that the Shadow Agents have captured might have ended up in Haazen's hands, if he really is the real bad guy in this whole thing? 
Hmmm... random comment... but seeing "Lucien", "Sith" and "Shadow Agents" all in the same paragraph suddenly makes me realise the connection between Darth Sion and his Sith Assassins. For all the speculation of Lucien becoming Sion, I had never realised the similarity between his "Jedi Shadows" and Sion's "Sith Assassins" before. Interesting.

Good catch!  I think you might well be right... And if this isn't the case how it is, it at least should be so.

In a round about way I can almost see a situation where Lucien actually does what Zayne wants and confesses admitting he had been manipulated and screwed up. I can then see Lucien being the one to go on the rampage and hunt Haazen down, slaying him in anger for using him, killing his mother, costing him the lives of his friends and ultimately driving him over the edge.
Hmm... it'd be rather ironic if it turned out this had all been a plot by Haazen to turn Lucien to the dark side. He is Lucien's 'master' in a way, no? Or at least his mentor of sorts. The apprentice usually kills the Master and all that... 
The idea of Krynda being dead is certainly growing on me. I used to like the idea of her being Kreia but now I'm starting to think maybe I'd rather her sister (isn't she meant to be half Miraluka?) be Kreia. In turn I'd rather like it if it turns out Kreia is the one commanding Haazen, thus leading to Sion seeing her as a 'mother figure' since she would be his aunt, while likewise utterly despising her for being the one who took literally everything away from him.
I mean, what's Lucien going to have left to live for? His mother? Dead. Friends? Dead. Girlfriend (assuming thats what Q'Anilia is)? Dead. Apprentice? Hates him. Jedi Order? Expelled him. The man's going to have absolutely lost everything he once held dear.

It's well to ask this question. I would also drop in the idea that there might be more than those two options.
All part of the plan, folks -- and yes, there are definitely more stories yet to be told. Now, who will survive to appear in those stories — and what their galaxy will look like — is what's yet to unfold. Starting with a certain KOTOR issue hitting the shelf this week...

The not-cryptic part is that big things happen, and then there are big things after that, and after that. That's thanks to you guys -- keep passing those comics to your friends like you have been! (Yes, we've constructed a conspiracy of comic-pushers...)

I think I'd prefer a situation where Kreia is Krynda's half sister, not sharing the Miraluka parent.
Kreia, after all, hates the miraluka. Maybe she didn't like her step-father/mother?
There's also a nice contrast there, with Kreia being "the historian" and Krynda being "the seer" (the famous quote being: "a historian is a prophet in reverse"). There's also an irony in that Kreia becomes more and more "seer-like" herself, to the point where she sees thousands of years into the future at the end of KotOR II. It would also be deliciously ironic if Traya bent her half-sister's covenant to her Sith will. 
Still holding out for Kreia being Kae. 
Edit: Oh, and while we're at it, lets make Visas the offspring of Lucien and Q'Anilia!
That's right, I advocate a GFFA where EVERYONE is related. Mwahahahahaha.

I'd say we're giving John and Jan a hobby - messing with our minds by giving us teasers and cryptic remarks. 
And I think I know John's and Jan's answer to my remark will be one of these:  , ,  , or

I would be happy to. The Rohlan/Demagol Thing is a fusion jazz act that worked many of the clubs on Mandalore until a dispute over a recording contract broke up the duo. However, their early recordings remain popular and one was recently used as the background music for a series of Holofeed apparel commercials.
Hope that clears things up for your friends. Now if they have more specific questions...
