As much as I hate the whole "Canon vs. Legends" thing, I have to admit I agree with this. One thing I did like about TCW was Bane's new look. I found it far more impressive than his comic/novel counterpart.
Exar Kun. Dude was a bad ass.

As long as they completely change, well, pretty much everything about him I agree. Karpyshyn's Bane was an absolute travesty (he was cool in the comic though). Also he should be the first "Darth".

I'm not a fan of the EU, it seems retarded to me, JK, I think Revan, Sion, and Malak should be canon again, just not Traya, she's unrealistic as ****
And th EU.. That's star war.. What star war? the scenbario of 6 moovies or an universe?
See, Exar always struck me as too straight-forward and not too interesting. He was an angry Jedi who became a sith.
Now, Ulic, he was the sith at the time with an interesting character arc. He was the one who was a legitimately good guy who fell, felt despair when he killed his brother, tried to redeem himself... where Exar was straightforward and was always in the same direction, Ulic grew and changed.
As for Freedon, he's a guy with barely any characterization. I'll admit to not getting his appeal either, not when there's a lot of more developed ancient lords. Ajunta is interesting. Heck, even Sadow- though I do hope they completely ditch the silly 'sorcery to blow up stars' stuff.

I prefer Ulic as a character. Exar, though, makes a far better and more intimidating villain.

As to Bane, better leave him as a ghost that can be easily dismissed imho.
Nah, as the creator of the RoT and the only survivor of those ancient Sith, Bane should be a bad ass. I hope they make him powerful and interesting in the new canon unlike what they did in the EU. Basically, he should be an entirely different character from his EU counterpart with the only similarities being that he is a sith named Darth Bane and that he created the RoT.
