    Yes, I was just trying to tie Solo/Lando into the sequel trilogy.

    We have the reveal of Darth Maul at the end of Solo that was evidently intended as some kind of cliffhanger with Qi'ra going off to work with him. We also know George envisaged Maul and Talon being the main antagonists of the sequel trilogy.

    I was just thinking of a way to potentially salvage some of George's vision by marrying these two facts together. Lando would be a good place to work on the Maul/Qi'ra relationship before the Filoni film or a hypothetical Episode 6.5 showing the fall of Ben Solo to the dark side as George apparently intended Episode 7 to depict.

    We already know from the comics that Qi’ra eventually took over Crimson Dawn herself by the time of the OT. The question is how did Maul end up on Malachor. My guess is that he simply sensed Ahsoka, Ezra, etc. we’re heading there, and simply got there ahead of them and pretended to be a “lost man” who had been there for decades, when really he was still the head of all the crime syndicates. Then, when he dies, all the syndicates resume to being independent from one another, rather than united under maul (or anyone else).

    I think if Qi-Ra was a secret Sith, we’d already know via the comics. I’m pretty she’s just a crime boss now, and nothing more.

    So, the films can ignore the comics. No big deal.

    But everything needs to abide by canon! [Removed]

    I get that you were being sarcastic, but let's not use ableist slurs here. /TCF

    It is, and always has been, easier to treat the book, comics and video games as being conditionally canon. Both during the EU and NuCanon periods, they get liberally contradicted and overridden by the movies and TV series a LOT.

    Next big canon stress test will be if we see Casian and K-2SO first meeting in Andor as there's a comic of that, can't wait! (The season is supposed to skip a few years every arc, though)

    I hope Andor then meets JFK, LBJ, John Lennon, and then he goes on a very long run and grows a comically long beard
