Darth Maul in Episode III? - Possible Evidence Inside!
This is from a comic book scan I found on MF.com. If you notice, in the comic a rebuilt Darth Maul comes across Anakin's body in a search for Obi-Wan...behind him is an imperial shuttle. This raises alot of questions I think, since we also see Grievous - part living - part machine in Episode III and of course Darth Vader at the end of the movie. Is there some connection? Were Maul and Grievous Palpatine's first attempts? On a side note...this same picture reveals the death of Watto.
Yeah...I agree...I think it is better that Maul should be dead. But if they want to bring him back in the comic for one last battle with Obi-Wan...so be it.
Sorry dude.
Maul will not be in Episode III, and I wouldn't consider that "EU-canon", probably more akin to the TALES Comics.
Though it does look sweet.
Nice find....
As far as why Maul questions Watto it makes sense when you think about it...
Maul goes to Polis Massa and find a medical log which shows that Padme and Anakin had children and probably mentions Obi-Wan. So Maul finds out more about Anakin and discovers that he was once a slave to Watto on Tatooine.
Edit: He probably knew Anakin was Obi-Wan's former apprentice and knew enough to know where to look if he wanted to find Luke and also Obi-Wan.
Again, it has been repeatedly confirmed by GL and LFL that Maul is not in Episode III, though the Comic is very cool....
As far as "normal EU" goes, Maul died in TPM.
Gender: Male Location: Chaos.
There can only be CHAOS!
Lucas had said he intentionally showed Maul being sliced in half, in order to show that he was indeed dead, and would never come back. Cool concept, but better left alone, imo. Could be another cloaked man.
