It's probably Rey [SPOILER - highlight to read]: summoning Han's force ghost or some shit...

OMG...of all the retcons that I've apparently seen...the worst has happened.
Galan, your faith in SW might drop even LOWER than before...if that's possible. But...
[SPOILER - highlight to read]: Apparently...according to Doctor Aphra #36...Palpatine didn't run the Empire at all...it was just some random Imperial Minister Pitina Voor.

Heh, I meant to make a thread about that but totally spaced it.
Like you said, the implication is that Mar-Mas Voor is who masterminded/engineered the Empire's rise to power after it was first established, and Palpatine just sort of f*cked it up on his own over the years with all his seedy villainy and whatnot. That's why she wants him dead in the series' current arc, lol:

...It's basically just a trainwreck at this point. I have no clue what they're even trying to do with current canon at times, because they contradict themselves constantly.
*Didn't spoiler tag the above because the issue came out a few weeks ago.

Yeah I just realized that, weird I thought it would release tomorrow...but anyway...yeah.
That's just....ugh. So much for not contradicting the lore and even retconning huge parts of it!

The implication I get is she is a delusional old bat who over inflates her own importance. She may have been of some use, yes. But the true person holding the Empire together? Bullshit.

Really wish I cared to see the hype for the character but Aphra is a one trick pony and her issues suck

I hope that ends up being the case.
We'll hopefully know more in the next issue.

Huh...ok, feel like they should have been shown in the movies first rather than the comics but alright, least there's that.

I keep intentionally looking at more and more supposed leaks. For whatever reason I keep doing this...also a recent one now that's just...ugh.
[SPOILER - highlight to read]: Rey might defeat Palpatine all on her own now!

It's all PR. He can't officially say that RJ shat the bed and left them trying to salvage the mess in anyway they can.

You know what also bothers me?....There's going to be 9 movies...9! An ODD number of movies. Before there was a nice even number in 6...now there's gonna be an odd number.
...I hate odd numbers.

Are you one of those weirdos who has to flip the light switch on and off like 48 times before you go to bed every night?

Naaah, doesn't go that far. It's only like specific I guess, it's not always a thing. Just sometimes odd numbers really bother me.
