Comics Star Wars: The Hidden Empire (WofBH / Crimson Reign sequel)

Spoiler

The leaks are giving me strong Forces of Corruption vibes!

Who is Qi’ra’s Sith Lord in a can? My money is on a new character, and probably the reigning Sith Lord of the High Republic era. I’m guessing they got stuck in the Fermata Cage by their apprentice, and they’re going to be very angry to see how the legacy has since progressed.

 

even know some of us didn't and read the hidden empire spoilers the author of aphra tells us to read aphra #26 first

 

So is this going to work same as War of the Bounty Hunters?

How did Crimson Reign work with the ongoings?

 

I hope it doesn’t hijack the other series, but I’m bracing for impact there.

As for those leaks

Spoiler

If that’s really Xizor’s introduction to canon it’s casual AF. But I’ll take it.

 

they were basically there own arcs just with a little connective tissue I.E qi'ra would be mentioned or Kho would be on holo with the archivist

 

Spoiler

Does he come with a Carbonite Sith Army?

 

With that darkside imprint of Maul on Naboo as seen in Shattered Empire, I think that you could suggest that a part of Maul is still out there and perhaps in the years after RotJ some Sith cult will use that imprint to pull his soul out of the void into a new body. Hell that sounds like a great video game idea.

 

Spoiler

The Ancient Sith will be female and theres no mention of carbonite their frozen in time by the Fermata cage. It also seems like if they don't have their original body they will poessess one of the knights of ren other then Ren himself as we know Ren survives this

 

Sorry for double post but yes read aphra #26 before hidden empire #1

 

I would honestly love that. We know now that the spirits of the Sith can return from death. After all, the dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural

 

Have Maul come back with amnesia like Revan and have Obi-wan's force ghost guiding him in manner in an attempt to redeem him.

 

That would be hilarious, honestly.

 

Spoiler

I dont think we have a female knight . Im just guessing that the one ancient sith will be female thou if they possess a knights body I guess male ?

 

Spoiler

I think shes a filoni character so he probably gets first crack at her

 

thats true hmmm ill go 40% on it being her then

 

Time for Darth Insanius to have his day

 

Spoiler

I also heard a theory that it could be Darth Zannah.

 

Not if anything to say about it Darth Icky has.

 

Spoiler

Might be crazy, but what about Darth Fermata??? Escaping from their Cage...

 

That would explain why

Spoiler

Maul went to Malachor and was subsequently stranded. This series also explains what Maul was really up to after escaping Malachor. He'd entrusted his revenge against Sidious to Q'ira, while he pursued vengeance against the other being that he hated-Kenobi. Q'ira's lack of Force-sensitivity explains why Maul was so intent on recruiting Ezra. But Crimson Dawn was always out there, working at Maul's behest. Ultimately, his organization survived him and went on to carry out his revenge against Palpatine. A very nice legacy for a failed Sith. Makes me wonder what sort of legacy Tyranus might have had put in place that caused a headache for his master after Order 66.

 

I am 90% sure

Spoiler

The Sith is gonna be Lord Ommin

EDIT: maybe not due to the rule of two thing. I’m just waiting for the inevitable EU story where Palpatine gets Ommin’s body and uses it to create Snokes.
