how many horns does maul have? I have a hunch it was 10 like the biblical "Beast".

Actually, if there is one thing that is true in Star Wars it is people with force powers don't die from falls.

Does that mean Mace Windu and the Emperor are still alive?

Where can you find this story?

It's one of the eleven featured comic stories in the trade paperback Star Wars: Visionaries, from Dark Horse Publishing. This story is titled "Old Wounds."

Let's just say that if you can see the ground, then they're not dead.

There was actually an idea back when Episode III came out on these boards that I really liked for a Star Wars d20 game. The idea was that deep in the bowels of Coruscant during the Rebellion there's a crazy old man with one hand who claims to once have been on the Jedi Counsel...

Demiurge out.

Just saw SITH again last night, and was inspired to respond...

I don't have much to add other than "ditto" on the spoilerize request. And that Obi-Wan's line after he shoots Greivous is priceless. ("So uncivilized!")

I think that line was directed at the blaster he was holding not Grievous. He says something similar again in New Hope.

Well, yeah, especially since neither Jango nor Boba were in any way tough. Sam Jackson decapitated Jango without breaking stride, and Boba got taken out by the equivalent of a half-trained padawan. Why clone those wussies?

Not that I am a big Fett fan, but Jango did fend off Obi, nearly killed him, and successfully escaped. Not bad for a non-Jedi. And Boba captured Han, relatively easily. That right there gives him mega prestige points with the fans. But when was Han ever considered a "half-trained padawan"?

Agreed. I never saw the love for the Fetts. A couple of chumps IMO.

Well, yeah, in a universe filled with Jedi most non-jedis ARE chumps. But look at the Fetts as the best trained and equiped NON-jedis out there. I give them credit for even being in The Game with Jedi. I mean, measured by the same yardstick, Han was a chump! Look how easy Darth brushed his blaster shots aside. But I don't here anyone calling Han a chump.

Actually, if there is one thing that is true in Star Wars it is people with force powers don't die from falls.

'Cept maybe the biggest force user of them all, The Emperor. But Mace was force lightning cooked long before he hit the pavement. Maul's fall was irrelevant too, for obvious reasons.

Demiurge out.

And he kept asking people "What does Marcellus Wallace look like?!"
