Because of Alek, I'm pretty sure we'll get at least a mention of Malak, but what about Revan? With the exception of some flashbacks in the game, we've never really seen anything of Sith-Revan. I think it'd be cool too briefly have him as a villain in the KOTOR comic.

Yes...We WILL see Revan as the central villain of KOTOR someday!

And I base that statement on absolutely no evidence whatsoever!


laugh just kidding laugh peace

It'd be nice, seems as how the whole point for the existence of this series IS the popularity of those games and those characters.

Patience is required though.

I think the story will be closed before the Jedi Civil war.In the prophecy Xamar is killed at Malachor.

We did see Revan(chist), but I think it's to early to talk about him being a Sith at this stage.
And somehow, just a hunch, i don't think he would be depicted as a real villain. thinking

Not for a long time, perhaps, but eventually. Perhaps Zayne can finally meet the savior of the galaxy and then he'll go; you remind me of the Mandalorians. Cue scene. Though Alek in KotoR seems a better bet as a villain after a fashion.

Given how much we've seen of Alek I'll be surprised if we don't see more of Revan once he properly goes dark.

I think its largely a case of waiting until they can justify him wearing his armor at which point there won't be any reason why they can't show him more directly. The faceplate means no face problems and all they need to do is just always call him Revan/Lord Revan/Darth Revan if they still want to shy away from explicitly calling him a him.

I assume he won't be donning his armor until after the Revanchists join the fighting though, which I don't think has happened yet. Although it is a bit unclear given some of the Revanchist/Alek scenes do seem to have been in the warzone but we've not really seen any evidence of the rest of the Jedi Order having split in two yet. I would imagine once the order starts splintering with people joining the Revanchists in large numbers and taking the fight to the front lines that we'll see it addressed by Zayne and/or the other Jedi. I get the impression the Revanchists are still only just being formed, not having been made into Jedi Generals and in command of the war effort yet.

Whether he is the villain... iffy. I expect as Dark Jedi they'll be shown in a neutral light with Zayne struggling to decide who to side with (i.e. the rest of the order who didn't believe him about the Covenant or Alek who has been his friend). I'm picturing them being portrayed more like Caedus since we'll be seeing it from the 'bad guys' point of view, so probably be made to sympathise with Revan and Alek a bit, until they start doing bad things.

We've already seen him as a villian.

Who do you think "the Sith" who went to the Mandalorians with that offer was? whistling

Okay, that's not canon. But it'd be sweet.

"The Council could have a Sith Lord standing right in front of them and they'd lecture him on neutrality!" Sayeth Raana and, by the above theory, they just did. mischief

"Did you never wonder how Revan corrupted so many of the Jedi, so much of the Republic, so quickly? The Mandalorian Wars were a series of massacres that masked another war, a war of conversion" - Kreia

Conclusion: I believe the Mandalorian Wars were to beat the Mandalorians and also to allow Revan to build the foundation of his army. - HK-47

Sure, he might not have been in his "Full On Evil Sith" stage at the very beginning... but I could totally buy Revan orchestrating the whole Mandalorian Conflict to get control of an army with which to stamp his "Peace and Protection" on the galaxy.

I think that those ideas came into his head later on, after he has experienced some of the atrocities of the war and got some power. I've always imagined the beginning of his involvement into Mandalorian Wars as a noble cause that went wrong along the way.

And you can't really take Kreia's words for granted. She's worse than Vergere. tongue

The j/k prevents me from launching into a defence of both Kreia and Vergere.

We've seen the Revanchist once or twice so far.

Who else here thinks that Zayne will see Alek again and hang out with Revan and company for a few issues?

Well, so far, Alek promised to stay with Zayne & co. So, you never know whom they might encounter on their quest to the Sanctum of the Exalted. wink

,,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.

Hopefully the story won't end until Zayne dies of old age with his loving family and friends at his side. praying

Well, I'd like the final panel of the KOTOR comic to be the burning Endar Spire over Taris.

And I think that could happen. So, by extension, I think we could see Revan as Darth Revan in the comic. However...Zayne would need to be involved. This story does revolve around him, after all. So that's why I'm hoping he becomes Nihilus, as some others are, so he gets that intrinsic link to the video games, and so Star Wars finally gets a fall to the dark side that is truly saddening.

I don't want for Zayne to turn out into Nihilus. That would be lame. He's an amazing character on his own and doesn't need to become someone from the book, especially not some ilussive poorly-mysterious villain who only seemed intriguing or mysterious becouse Obsidian probably could not have come up with anything decent and who was very easily defeated. Zayne deserves more than that.

If he was really to become someone from the game, I would want him to become Revan, but I know that's not really possible.

Ah, the beginning of the Zayne Alek friendship. Partnership? Journey to a place full of Sith artefacts... Zayne might as well turn out to be Revan. Which would make the Revanchist we all saw Kreia.
wink
