Her intrinsic characteristics also tend to have her end up in some wild stories that explore parts of the Star Wars universe that have never been seen before.

Aphra constantly getting out of encounters and spots she shouldn't be able to gets a little grating after a while, but everything else about her series is great

Also she tends to sac her acquaintances alot. I like it, her story is going to continue on so she has to win, so I enjoy the various ways she "wins".

Triple Zero and BT are great, from when I saw her in one of the Vader comics. Think Bender-level disregard/disdain for human life, stuff it in a protocol droid, and let it rip upon an unsuspecting galaxy. Violence and comedy are both guaranteed!

To be honest I'd rather see an Aphra and Vader buddy cop series where he constantly threatens to kill her while she gets away with bullshit amounts of luck rather than read through that comic where a nurse falls in love with Vader again.

Triple Zero loudly announcing that he absolutely has NOT created an army of blood-sucking, force-wielding killer robots, why would you think that is still one of my favourite scenes from the comics

Mine was after they burned a bunch of aliens to death on Geonosis, he was sad that he had no witty quip for the occasion...before just announcing “HAHAHA YOURE ALL ON FIRE, AND ALSO DEAD”

I want a star war now, damnit. Anyone know what the woodwind in that video is? It looks like a recorder and a bassoon had a lovechild.

Close, It's a bass recorder, they talk about it a little in the Gallery episode dedicated to the show's music.

Rewatched some TCW and Rebels episodes, and they're still great ways to pass days in isolation Love how Rebels was a completely different show when it first started, and watching the animators go through the same growing pains as TCW all over again - like smiles looking really awkward in early episodes

The Bad Batch as post-CW mercenaries? I can dig it.

Well. paired with the Ahsoka/Sabine rumor that has gone along with this one panning out, I have to question what that means for the rumored Aphra series. I thought there were just two series in the pipeline, not sure there's room for three.

Blech, I couldn’t wait until those episodes were over with.

Same, but I don't think because they were particularly bad, just that I wanted them to just get to the Ahsoka stuff already.

My only real concern is that it's the same writer from Resistance, which was very, very not good.

I'd have much preferred an Ahsoka/Rex-centric Clone Wars spinoff.

Moon Slayer posted:Same, but I don't think because they were particularly bad, just that I wanted them to just get to the Ahsoka stuff already. The dudes who originally leaked this mentioned a Rebels sequel in the same report, but they're now saying the announcement for that series has been moved to post-Mando S2 Anyway there's some good storytelling potential in the post-ROTS setting, but I'm guessing this is going to be more of a lighter "Star Wars A-Team" sort of show, given the writer.

I wasn't a huge fan of the story arc with the bad batch, but I loving loved the squad itself.

I guess it's too much to hope for that they never had the chips removed, and that it's all about them going around mopping up Jedi holdouts.

Looking forward to potential episodes involving Gregor and 99 hopefully. More clones is never a bad thing.
