Here we go. My first Dark Empire read.
We’ve got renegades and scavengers all over these ruins!
(Most of this tread will be about how this relates to TROS down to the most minute, pointless detail)
I’m also using the 4K screencaps, I know they don’t look like the movie. They need to fix that.
Instantly reminded of these guys.
This ship with the legs looks a lot like one Savage used to find Maul.
Final Order/Operation Cinder vibes.
Not Mandalorian walls!
Welcome to Exeg- Byss. Yes, of course. Welcome to Byss.
“I have died before... The Dark Side of the Force is the pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.”
I choose to call it heavy homage.
My thoughts exactly, R2.
Oh
Since they’ve introduced the Dark Troopers, I’m hoping the Imperial Remnant goes even more Separatist with droid fighters as well.
This is the “Bad Luck on Kijimi” part.
Ooo. I’d really love to see Leia go to Corellia now.
Old lady hands off the lightsaber to Leia.
(A deleted scene I’d still love to see)
Chewbacca just pulls out a machine gun.
Leia gets a vision while touching the saber.
You can definitely tell that JJ liked this comic.
I think that was always part of canon Palpatine’s plan. Before he knew Rey was alive and where she was, he was getting Ben to be his next body.

Then when a better option became available, he knew she would be better suited for the task and he’d just take on Ben as an apprentice.
He already knew Kylo Ren would be a fantastic Sith Apprentice as he ran a controlled experiment with Snoke to see if he could really fulfill the rule of two, without sacrificing himself.

Anyway, back to the book.
Luke with a force projection. (Here, called a Dark Side Trick)
I know I’ve heard that before.
Han’s former homeworld girlfriend made the Kessel Run with Lando in the Falcon.
“Confronting fear is the destiny of a Jedi”

Also, very similar to Snoke’s ship. (Not in design but function)
