    Heh, cool, a trinary system. Judging by the cover it looks like we might get a showdown at high noon, except we have to wonder "which noon?" :p

    Also yeah, cool to see a Vurk. They've appeared, what, maybe twice since AOTC? So kudos.

    Pretty sure that if this were part of a movie it would become an instant classic.

    Yeah I think only colman trebor in all his whimpyness was the only one we saw on film. In fact in the entire old EU we only see them in a jedi quest novel, holonet news articles, aotc, labyrinth of evil, and ROTS.

    I could only fine one image of the rots one from the opera it seems

    So, the events in Naboo and Maul's defeat were unexpected just as Palpatine didn't expect to see Anakin's defeat in Mustafar. Dooku however was the only apprentice that Palpatine didn't regret to lose. With calling him torpedo, implying that he was just a place-holder for Vader until the time is right. Nice to see it's canonized.

    And the majority were thinking that Palpatine is the one that created Vader's suit, now we know that it's Cylo, it's kind of weird...

    Really bummed that this series is ending- outside of maybe Lando, it's far and away the best SW title Marvel is producing.

    After the so-so war arc, this issue was a return to form. Loved the Sidious chat, Thanoth's entire s end, Vader's characterization, the Murderbots backup story. Everything. Can't wait to read what's next.


    Now we know how Cade got the pants.


    Dark Times wasn't an ongoing series (le alone one that often double-ships), it was a series of miniseries alternating with another title (Rebellion, then Invasion), though the delays often had them coming out simultaneously.

    No, we'll be finishing off this series the usual way, with a thread for each issue. We're switching to story arc threads (when a story is more than one issue long) for every other series moving forward.
