    Quinlan Vos was going to be killed in Revenge of the Sith but the scene was never filmed. George Lucas also personally told the writers of the Star Wars: Republic comic book series NOT to kill Vos. So what do you think happened to Vos after he escaped Order 66 in the jungles of Kashyyyk and what would do want to happen to him?

    Personally, I'm split between wanting him to have a happy ending with his family and having him tracked down and brutally killed by Lord Vader. I liked the guy and all, but Vader demands blood :D

    If I remember correctly, Lucas did no such thing. Dark Horse presented several ideas to Lucas regarding Vos, including one of him surviving, and he allowed the story to go through.

    Spent his Life on the Run or in hiding like most other jedi.

    There was a comic that showed him reunited with his lady friend and their child. I believe that's where things pretty much ended (so far, anyway).

    Ghost really should be canon. There's no reason it shouldn't be.

    I haven't read the comic yet, but isn't the reason it's not canon because Vos uses the Force in front of Han, or something? And Han shouldn't believe in the Force by that point. Though frankly, unless it's not too obvious, I don't see any reason why Han as a child wouldn't just think whatever Vos does is a fancy trick (he dated a freaking magician, after all).

    Vos returned to his wife and his kid, and lived happily ever after. T'ra Saa and Tholme were with him.

    They really should give us some closure when it comes to him. I mean they've shown us some of what happened to K'Kruhk, T'ra Saa, and even A'Sharad Hett who were all supporting characters in Vos' comics but we have absolutely nothing about what happened to Quinlan himself! I originally hoped it was because they had something in the works behind the scenes but it's been so long now that hope for that has been lost. But there is only so many stories to tell so i'd say sooner or later we'll get a novel or comic series showing his story during the Dark Times. There are just so many questions surrounding him (did he train his son in the ways of the force? If so is there a Vos in the current post-FOTJ Jedi Order? Since he had two other powerful Jedi with him why didn't they ever take the fight to the Empire or join the Rebellion? Or did they? Since T'ra Saa ended up in the NJO does that mean Quinlan, Tholme, and her started there own order that merged with Lukes at some point or did she join alone? T'ra Saa and K'Kruhk ended up together on the Jedi Council in Legacy so does that mean he hooked up with Quinlan's group at some point during the DTs or is it just coincedence that they came back around the same time?) so hopefully it's sooner rather then later.

    Re-read The Hidden Temple, it gives you everything you need - Vos says he will raise his son and the dark side will not touch either of them!

    It's what makes the Vos story so excellent for me, that as the Sith triumph with the creation of the Empire and destruction of the Jedi, we get this story of a man who, in his ambition to save the galaxy, nearly destroyed himself, who having made those errors before, refuses to do so again! What we have is an absolute rejection of the dark side, even as it is inexorably ascendant! I love what John and Jan did here as it was so unexpected yet so right for the story. And the end point is perfect.

    So far, it hasn't come to that yet.

    He was hunted down and killed by the Empire, just like every Jedi who wasn't Obi-Wan or Yoda. LOL wishful thinking.

    I agree with all of this. The Vos story was perfect in every way, and all I think really needs to be added is to learn whether his son survived or not, since we did learn Tra and Tholme's final fates in Legacy. Only seems right that we should learn whether Quin managed to keep little Korto safe.

    Maybe Vos might appear in future issues of Dark Times....

    I think Vos, if anyone, is fully capable of being a Jedi who completely renounces the ways of the Jedi and contents himself being a family man. There's no reason for the other two to survive the Purge, however.

    I hope he goes out in a blaze of glory on the CW.

    He already showed up once.

    Given that Vos deletes Han's memory of him, it wouldn't matter.

    Second.

    Unless the Underworld rumour comes to pass I think I would have preferred the end of Vos's story being his confrontation with Faie, leaving any survival ambiguous. If he shows up again, I'd rather it be as an ex-Jedi with a son(!), maybe keeping his head down and staying in the background similar to his TPM appearance. Not a fan of Jedi surviving the purge. Even the ones I like.

    I'd like an epilogue myself. If Ghost is canon, it presumes Vos either went on the run or lost his wife (though not child).

    Tholme should die in the purge. What happens to a certain relative of Odd Bnar is anyone's guess.

    I did like (at least originally) the theory that Dray from Invasion was Korto Vos. Now, with him being another crazy darksider, not so much (although now of course the theory is a non-starter).
