Star Wars Legacy #12 *Spoilers*

[Zechs]

Well we finally know who from the SW Universe appears in Legacy. Honestly, it should have been kinda a given who it was going to be. I'm kinda excited to see him in Legacy now and should be interesting the interaction between him and Cade.

Oh and who is this person? Come on.. who'd ya think it was gonna be? This is Star Wars, Legacy's been missing one piece of someone whose appeared in pretty much every important SW story.

Yep, R2 D2 makes his Legacy debut!!! :D

What where you expecting Thrawn or someone else? :p

[Reliant]

I've always believed that Star Wars was really all about the adventures of Artoo-Detoo myself.
:D

Seriously, though, it kinda had to be either Artoo or Threepio since they were the only characters to appear in all six films (not counting Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader). Of the two, I figured it had to be Artoo.

Of course the question that now begs to be asked is where is Threepio? Hopefully, he wasn't part of that nasty collection of countless severed protocol droid heads that were featured in issue #2...

[TheTourist]

R2D2 is the only character to show up in all 6 movies without a drastic change to his appearance. I thought of that while sitting through the horrible romantic dialogue in Episode III.

This issue was very nice. Very, very nice. :D

Knowing 3-PO probably with that mouth and annoying attitude of his :(

So anyone else thing Krayt is a victim of the mutations?

That was what I was thinking after reading this issue. Looks like its a good possibility, that it does.

Apparently #15 is when we find out Krayt's true identity.

[coachmatt05]

Three issues left until we can start a cult for Darth Krayt!!!

I think it's been pretty obvious since the first arc that Krayt is A'Sharad Hett, the tusken jedi in the Republic Comics. If K'khruk survived to the Legacy era, I don't see why Hett can't especially since Krayt himself has admitted to living this long by being in stasis, the fact that both wield twin lightsabers, that they have the same tattoos beneath the lip or the significance of the Krayt dragon to both of them and it would probably explain nicely the existence of the Rule of One paradigm in the new Sith Order from the perspective of the Tuskens and their tribalism.

So anyone else thing Krayt is a victim of the mutations? It's been pretty much established that the vong armor is eating him alive, which is why he wants Cade and why he appealed to the holocrons of past sith lords to give up their secrets of immortality and longevity.

I didn't even think of that. Good call.

At any rate, I think this may have been the best issue of the series. Cade's revelation and leaving with Artoo just mirrors ESB so much, and I'm loving it. Can't wait to see what happens when Cade goes to town on the Sith. I guess that'll be another two or three issues though, for Duursema to catch up, but I'm sure it will be worth the wait.

[jedifish]

Excellent issue. Nice surprise with R2-D2.

[Zechs]

I just wonder though. I got this wierd feeling that Krayt has some Skywalker blood in him. I mean the Hett theory you gave would make the best sense. Though I dunno why I would think Krayt would be a Skywalker. Guess probably due to Jacen, who I'm kinda still surprised hasn't visited Cade's via the force or his deillusions via the death sticks like he did with Mara Jade and Anakin/Darth Vader.

Plus I wonder which Sith will try and betray Krayt and attempt to make it more akin to the Sith ghosts wanted.

I think Jacen is probably off limits given that the novels are using him.

Interesting. Even though I don't exactly enjoy the idea of Hett becoming Krayt.

here's the problem I have with that. I didn't read Republic, and I'm probably not alone, so having the reveal of the big bad guy being a character I don't know squat about would be rather disappointing for me. I'd rather it be someone completely new, so then we can get the backstory.

But, based on your post, that does make a lot of sense.

[CYOTI]

That'd rest solely on how the writer present the identity of Krayt. Either way, we are going to get huge doses of back story to explain his origins.

[Zechs]

I kinda wonder if we'll have a limited series or an entire issue deticated to Krayt's origins as a Sith lord.

wow, way to put the clues together!!! I'd been thinking either Vos or his offspring, but this makes quite a bit of sense.here's the problem I have with that.

hasn't Ostrander made a point at least a couple times (iirc in a letter page and a 'Rama interview) that Krayt's identity wouldn't actually be as big a deal as people were suspecting it would? like, trying to control expectations from it being some HUGE reveal....

[trence5]

the existence of the Rule of One paradigm in the new Sith Order from the perspective of the Tuskens and their tribalism.:confused: :confused: Whaa.... Say I just got an issue of this series, could you explain "Rule of One", if it doesn't quite mean what I think it does it*?

Just picked up the tpb and enjoyed it, but why in god's name is the main villian named after a storage container? WTF? His flunkies all have cool names and he's "Darth Crate."

It was either that or "Darth Gaylord". I think they made the right call.

And that isn't a cheap gay joke, either. There's an actual type of storage container called a gaylord. Look it up.

Krayt, as in dragon. They live on Tatooine.

Yah, but it still sounds, in English, like "crate." My sole minor quiblle with a great series. Johnny O has been a fave writer of mine for forever...
