Roster of NJO Jedi in Latest SW Insider * SbS Spoilers*

Why are my issues of the Insider always so much later than everyone else's?

 

Ganner might have gotten a haircut. People do that sort of thing.

 

the Barabel wasn't within Luke's academy, so would join a Knight, IMO

 

I agree with alot of your points, JM, most specifically the thing about Tionne and Kirana Ti not being Masters. To me, that makes about as much sense as Kenth Hamner being a Master, as well.

 

Well, look at kyle, he isn't a master either.

Wallace infered that tionne isn't one in similer cicumstance when I talked to him. (teaching a student doesn't make one a jedi master.)

 

Good point, Valiento. Take the case in the end of "The Phantom Menace": Obi-Wan had just become a Jedi when he took on Anakin as an apprentice (and we all know how well that turned out).

 

I'm intrigued by what we might find out about any other Jedi to make future appearances (or not) in the NJO. Hopefully, Dan will get to do a follow-up to this piece!

Plus, I don't think we've seen all the Jedi Masters yet, (I hope). Nice job to both Dan's!!!

 

I wasn't too pleased with quite a few of the drawings in this issue. I noticed the same thing about Ganner. It could have been anyone with a scar. Forgetting the hairstyle, if he has dark hair, I would've thought his hair would have been colored darker. Kyp's is, after all.

And then we have three year old Jysella Horn looking QUITE a bit older...

 

Could someone please post a link to this issue, if there is one?

 

Also, Anakin is dead

wk....."so certain now are we" about Anakin...LOL

 

Here is a link to a site that has the article and the pics. You'll have to cut and paste it.

I liked the article even though some of the pictures were off. How about the Solo kids. They didn't look good at all.

 

That, IMO would make her a Jedi Master

Ah, but unless you work for LFL or Del Rey, your opinion doesn't matter. Only your money

They decide what makes a Jedi a Knight or Master, not the fans.

LOL, w_k.

 

I have a couple questions about the article:

1) In the article, it says that the Wild Knights crew and the younger barabels are not considered part of the 100 jedi knights in the galaxy. But Luke knew about them the whole time and still issues orders to them for their help. So why would he not count them in his hundred jedi knights? That just struck me as odd.

2) Leia is not on the list. I know she has never formally trained, but then neither has Mara Jade. Leia was Luke's first student ever. She has always been shown using the force in small ways and I would think Luke would at least consider her a Knight. It looks like she'll be doing a lot more Jedi stuff in the next few books, so maybe her name will get posted on the next list, but it seemed weird to me for her not to be on there. She's very powerful, and only needs a little more training.

Just my thoughts.....

 

I'll toss in some more comments for what its worth:

1) I agree with the above comments that if LFL says a particular character is a Jedi Master, then that character is a Jedi Master. Apparently, Kenth Hamner is a Jedi Master. So it should be a non-issue.

Note, when reading EVR, Kenth is talking to Luke about Borsk Fey'lya's warrant for Luke's arrest. I thought it was unique that Kenth never used the "honorific" of "Master" when speaking to Luke. Does that mean anything? Not necessarily. I guess it might. But on the flip side, we still see Kyp Durron address Luke as Master. Oh well. I guess this observation doesn't help much!

Also note, we still have approximately 3 Jedi Students of Luke's initial dozen that have never been identified. So who's to say (other than LFL) whether Kenth Hamner is one of those twelve or not? We'll have to wait and see if LFL ever takes a position on it.

2) Reading SBS, I never got the impression that Luke had ever met Saba. My impression is that Luke has NEVER met Saba before. It's also clear that Saba has never attended the Jedi Praxeum on Yavin 4. Eelysa is a product of the Jedi Praxeum on Yavin 4 and Eelysa is Saba's Master, (but that also doesn't necessarily make Eelysa a Jedi Master). Dan's article seems to be addressing only the approximate 100 that HAVE attended the Jedi Academy on Yavin 4. Saba and her followers aren't exactly a part of that group, but Saba is significant enough that Dan included her anyway. I guess you can make an indirect argument that Saba is a product of the Academy even though she never attended it.

Note, just an observation, Wonetun - one of Saba's followers - appears to have attended the Jedi Praxeum at one point, but left before completing his training.

I probably haven't added anything that hasn't been discussed before on various threads, but here it is anyways.
