^ Dude. Zayne shares many qualities with the Jedi Exile. Nihilus is said to be what the Jedi Exile would have become had she "gone down a different track".
I wouldn't start celebrating Zayne's freedom from a horrific fate just yet.

Something else.
It was an interview or something: "what are you plans for Star Wars yada yada". Something along those lines.

Sorry,i just started to use the forum.
By the way a sith Lord needs a lot charisma and Zayne is not to charismatic.
I mean Sion accepted Nihilius as an ally.What would Sion think if Zayne would offer his help?

I do not want Zayne to become on of the Sith Lords. I genuinly like Zayne, which is more than I can say for many of the other main characters of Star Wars. I want Zayne to remain good.
We don't have enough of these kind of people.

If you're talking about the October 2006 poll, then Andeddu won. Got almost half the vote.
I'd like Zayne to be his own character entirely, not "just" a video game tie-in. And having him fall to the dark side after he's consistently been shown as a fundamentally good person from Commencement onward would be really silly.

Well it would have to be written...it wouldn't just happen out of the blue.
I dunno. Maybe I'm interested in finally seeing a truly tragic fall to the dark side in Star Wars. How can something so good go so wrong? It's supposed to be a major theme, but I just feel that it's yet to happen properly.

,,The prophecy that was seen by Zayne’s Masters appears to be coming true. Two pieces of the sequence have come to pass . . . and those who remain alive are still fighting to prevent their vision from becoming a reality. The Jedi Consulars are beginning to doubt themselves and it’s possible they have overlooked a true source of danger!,,
,,true source of danger,,
I guess this is the True Sith,or Revan and his allies.
Perhaps it goes with the territory of reading a message board, but to be honest, I can't quite escape the fact that I'd've really preferred to have learned about the things described in the text that I highlighted when I read the issues themselves.

If he did turn out to be Nihilus I suppose the answer may be "Why did Nihilus survive Malachor?" We know how the Exile survived: she cut herself off from the Force. But Nihilus was the opposite, though we don't quite know in what ways he was 'opposite'. He didn't seem to so much cut himself off as open himself up to the pain and death to survive.
What little we understand of Zayne's 'unique' Force abilities is that he somehow draws others to him and that while he is not that powerful he is very lucky, able to survive scrapes where anybody else would have died.
I suppose you might be able to argue Nihilus was unable to escape the pain and suffering the way the Exile did if he had already formed Force bonds to the rest of the Sith fleet (whereas it seemed the Exile only seemed to start leeching power off others after she had cut her own power off). Surviving Malachor would also be one hell of a close shave, so if anyone could do it Zayne would be your man.
I'd rather Zayne not be made to utterly drown in the dark side to survive Malachor though...as that would be more tragic than Jacen, since at least Jacen chose to become a monster, whereas Zayne would be more of the tragic byproduct of simply wanting to survive.
Of course, survival is a Sith trait... so.... 
But, personally, I kind of hope with the Covenant slowly being wittled down that they start introducing some more main players and that Nihilus can turn out to be one of them. Maybe once Zayne joins up with the Revanchists (  ) we can see Alek introduce him to their General or something (like 'the Revanchist' I figure the Exile can just be 'the General') as well as another member of the Revanchist faction who can turn out to be Nihilus.
If they want the series to continue long term then they're going to need to start introducing the 'second season's cast' so to speak since if you treat the hunt for the Covenant as the 'first season' we're going to be more or less finished soon. Even if Lucien survives to become Sion, we're only going to be left with Haazen and Krynda (who may already be dead anyway) so they're going to need to start introducing some more characters to main cast.
We haven't seen the Exile yet, who will doubtlessly be at least as important as the Revanchist and Alek, so I don't see why Nihilus couldn't be introduced at the same time as 'the General's' mirror.

Well, with the journey to Coruscant and, apparently, the return of characters like Tokare in foreseeable issues, I think we might see the KOTOR story become more of a pan-galactic one, rather than the isolated adventures of Zayne Carrick. I love how JJM has used the game characters so far, and I'm always waiting for the next one to filter through. I'd love to see Lamar as a non-enemy antagonist though...and a confrontation between him and Gryph. That'd top just about anything.

Zayne is quite charismatic. Non-charismatic people don't go around befriending large ammounts of people while being a well known fugitive. A non-charismatic person wouldn't get away with causing the trouble Zayne gets away with.

The cross comic link would be to say that Nihilus survived by "binding his soul to his armour", whatever that means.
