It's about how Kanaan meets Hera. It's a prequel to the show.

So it's just Kanan and Hera? No Sloane?

Not sloane. She's a great character. Would think she shows up in animation at some point.

Although I think that would be somewhat tough to pull off. There's a lot of nuance to her character that would be tough to convey.

Speaking of Sloane - just about a month away from Empire's End

Qui-Gon was far from perfect, like all other Jedi we've ever seen in any of the movies.

The Jedi were idiots in the PT

What danger couldn't he sense? What innocent person did he use mind tricks on?

The Council created Darth Vader.

In TPM on the trade ship. Obi-Wan says it doesn't feel right or something and he says he doesn't sense it

The Gungan leader

Qui-Gonn should have taken Anakin's mother too instead of leaving her as a slave. She wouldn't have had that Tusken train that pushed Anakin over the edge

You could easily make the case that at least Obi-Wan did some huge questionable things in the old movies. Nicca told Luke "yo there goes duke who killed yo dad ".

That's the biggest lie any Jedi told in any movie ever and possibly the most scumbag move, but we'll shrug it off like "nah see he was talking metaphorically and from a certain point of view ".

"A certain point of view?"

The lines in ANH are greasy because Vader wasn't originally Luke's dad

True.

I think a lot of the storytelling flaws started because Lucas got lazy with Return of the Jedi.

Alec Guinness is amazing though he sells that shyt perfectly as if Obi-Wan is lying.

 

[2 Up 2 Down]

Qui-Gonn couldn't sense danger, disobeyed the council, used mind tricks on innocent people, and basically created Darth Vader by telling his slave mom to kick rocks

Also he couldn't do nothing about Anakin's mom besides beating that thing up the night before the pod race

 

[2 Up 2 Down]

He also made his apprentice promise him, on his death bed, to take ownership of training the chosen one.

Qui-Gon was far from perfect, like all other Jedi we've ever seen in any of the movies.

For some reason people hate that the Jedi made mistakes and that had hubris in the Prequels

Exactly Obi-Wan and Yoda both owned up to fukking up from failing with Anakin to underestimating the Emperor.

How is the comic series coming along?

How is the comic series coming along?

Which one?

 

[OmegaK2099]

Which one?

The main title

 

[Ezra]

The main title

Some arcs are better than others. An arc about Yoda that takes place within a few years before Episode 1 just started that is interesting. For the most part it's been pretty good.

Ive found I like the mini-series better than the long run titles. Im really not feeling the Poe Dameron comic. Although it's only 2 issues in Dr Aphra is great and seems like it will lead to some cool lore type shyt

 

[OmegaK2099]

I wish theyd do a series on Palpatine
