Star Wars: Legacy#1 by John Ostrander and Jan Duursema
From the beginning ofStar Wars , it always seemed like there were only two sides to the proverbial coin of the Force : Jedi and Sith . While that ’s a gross oversimplification , that ’s the impression the series only recently start strike away from in the current canon . However , Star Wars : Legacychallenged that notion back in the early 2000s with the introduction of the Imperial Knights , which are a squad of elite Force - wielders who entirely use the light side of the Force , but who are loyal to their Emperor above all else - include the Force itself .
While it could be argued that the Jedi were little more than Knights of the Republic ( peculiarly during the Clone Wars ) , that ’s not their function in the extragalactic nebula , as they ’re meant to represent only through the will of the Force . Not only that , but the only Force - exploiter who make for the Empire were exclusively moody siders . The Imperial Knights absolutely flip that notion on its head , which - alone - is truly untamed .

Star Wars: Legacy#16 by John Ostrander and Jan Duursema
Force healing is a power that ’s been put on presentation in more recentStar Warsprojects ( with Rey and Grogu seemingly having master this power ) , but it ’s one that ’s been around for a slew longer within the wider Star Wars universe of discourse - including inStar Wars : Legacy . However , in the Legacy geological era , Star Wars challenges the idea of what Force healing signify , and what it can do .
In a second that assuredly ball over reader , Cade Skywalker - who was inherently adept in Force healing - reveals that his might comes from being able to see the weaknesses in others , and making a conscious pick to attain out through the Force and bring around them . However , he also say that he could just as easily do the opposite , and use the Force to turn a underage wound fatal . This mo redefine the very nature of Force healing itself .
8Darth Krayt Could Have Undone The Entire Star Wars Prequel & Original Trilogies
Darth Krayt is one of the most herculean and significant villains in Star Wars lore , and his existence alone could qualify as one of the godforsaken aspects ofStar war : Legacy . The reason that ’s the case can be pinpoint in instances where Krayt was n’t just a unequalled baddie , but where he could have touch on the wider universe . In fact , there are a few here and now that show he could have effectively loosen the classicStar Warsuniverse as it existed in the original and prequel trilogy .
When he was a Jedi named A’Sharad Hett during the Clone Wars , Darth Krayt could sense the influence of the dark side all over Anakin Skywalker , and he even regret not doing or saying something that would have neutralized Skywalker before Order 66 . Then , after Order 66 , Darth Krayt fights Obi - Wan Kenobi on Tatooine , as Krayt becomes the leader of a ring of Tuskens that was on its way to raid a moisture farm - the one on which Luke Skywalker was heighten .

7Star Wars’ Sith Are As Committed To Art As They Are To Conquest
Star Wars: Legacy#17 by John Ostrander and Jan Duursema
The greatest misconception inStar Warsis the nature of the Sith , as some incorrectly believe a Sith is nothing more than a accrue Jedi , or a corrupted Force - user . Being Sith is much more than just using the saturnine side or trying to take over the wandflower , it ’s a cultivation . The Sith have specific rituals , exercise , organic structure modifications , and even work of art specific to their culture , and they ’re fiercely passionate about every facet of it .
In this exit , Darth Talon designate Cade Skywalker a part of art that a Sith Lord pullulate his literal life force into , as when it was finished , he ask his apprentice to kill him in front of it , so that it may take in his living Force , and he may leave tracing of himself within it for all time . This consequence was more than just wild , it was perhaps the vestal instance of how the Sith ’s obsession with violence and power is perhaps the least interesting affair about them .

Star Wars: Legacy#28-31 by John Ostrander and Jan Duursema
While Darth Krayt is the overarch villain inStar Wars : Legacy , he for certain is n’t the only one . Karness Muur - like Krayt - was once a Jedi who diminish to the gloomy side . However , Muur did not acquire the ways of the Sith . Instead , Muur committed his life to dark side alchemy , including the study of ancient magic and forbidden science . In the end , Muur was able to relate his liveliness to a dark side Talisman , which allowed him to possess anyone who wore it , so long as they were n’t strong enough in the Force to defy .
Not only that , but this Dark Jedi also make perhaps the most unique United States Army in the story ofStar Wars : the rakghoul . The rakghoul were Sithspawn , and their spittle conduct a venom that would mutate anyone they bit into rakghoul themselves ( a horrific fate tolerate by Darth Reave ) . The moment Karness Muur ’s terror level was put on full display was in truth dotty , and even endanger to catch up with that of Darth Krayt himself .

Star Wars: Legacy#35 by John Ostrander and Jan Duursema
The suit wear by Darth Vader is meant to keep him alive following the immense injuries he suffer while fighting Obi - Wan Kenobi on Mustafar . However , the wooing itself has some obvious limitations and helplessness ( most of which were implemented by the Emperor deliberately ) . Plus , the suit is designed to keep an wound mortal live , not perpetually recreate someone who ’s already dead - not like the suit preface in this issue ofStar Wars : Legacy .
The suit wear out by Azlyn Rae after she has effectively give out is basically like a walking bafta tank with other portion that actively squeeze her body to keep living . Not only that , but the armor is virtually perdurable , as though Din Djarin ’s Mandalorian armor was combine with a immensely upgraded Darth Vader causa . While someone is wearing this , they can not die , make it one of the wildest design inStar Warshistory .
4Star Wars: Legacy Teased An Interesting Step In Sith Corruption
Star Wars: Legacy#39 by John Ostrander and Jan Duursema
In this issue , Cade Skywalker has a visual sensation where he gets spoil by Darth Krayt , and his Sith form has ruddy skin and tattoos . This conflate with the fact that much every member of the One Sith has red-faced cutis despite their species only added more grounds to the idea that sustain one ’s hide turn red was just another measure in Sith corruption , which was a groundless opening that not only could have changed the account of the Sith incessantly , but it nearly redefine Darth Maul ’s full lineage .
When Darth Maul was introduce inEpisode I , some fan wondered if his blood-red cutis and Sith tattoos ( afterward confirmed to be Dathomirian in origin ) were a product of his species or his Sith corruption . While fans now hump that both his hide and his tattoos were from his homeworld civilisation - totally freestanding from the Sith - that distinction was not established inStar Wars : Legacy , which assign both of Darth Maul ’s key forcible features exclusively to the Sith .
3The Death Star Looked Kind Compared To The Final Protocol (& Other Viral Attacks)
Star Wars: Legacy#47-49 by John Ostrander and Jan Duursema
The Final Protocol is a way of killing all aliveness on an full planet without destroying the physical earth itself . While , on the surface , this seems like a preferable way to purge a world with the possibleness of repopulating it subsequently , the Final Protocol is so much worse than the Death Star . The Death Star kills a satellite in an instant . Terrifying , but quick . The Final Protocol , however , kill a planet slow through unwellness and pestilence , effectively making the whole world tolerate before the inevitable oddment .
The Final Protocol is n’t even the only super - virus threat inStar Wars : Legacy , as there ’s also Omega Red , which is a virus created by the One Sith that kills everyone except Sith . There was also the Vongspawn , which was a mutated strain of Yuuzhan Vong origin that caused one ’s body to grow horrific and atrocious spike before they slow conk in agony .
2Cade Undergoes Truly Wild Force Training From Luke Skywalker & Darth Vader
Star war : Legacyis set more than a century after the original trilogy , meaning Luke Skywalker has long since become one with the Force . However , like Obi - Wan and Yoda before him , Luke Skywalker used his presence as a Force Ghost to prepare one of his own descendant who needed his help : Cade Skywalker . While grooming done by Force Ghosts is usually strictly instructional in nature , Luke takes thing a few step further with Cade , sending him through cascade of Force vision to serve teach him the reason why he call for to take the brightness , and the grandness of pass the One Sith from the coltsfoot .
Cade ’s Force breeding with Darth Vader ( which happened in issue # 11 ) is similar in nature , as it also takes place within a Force vision , and its intent is to teach Cade how to focus his feelings in a way that translates to strength and understanding of the Force . Plus , like with Luke Skywalker , Cade ’s lightsaber duel with Darth Vader is undeniably badass , making these training sessions obvious standouts .
1Star Wars: Legacy Finally Paid Off The ‘Skywalker’ Name (Literally)
Star Wars: Legacy - War#6 by John Ostrander and Jan Duursema
Out of everything that hap in the first volume of this series , the individual great and wild moment had to be when Cade Skywalker yield off the promise his family name implied by quite literally becoming a sky - walker . While some of the more hardcore fans may call up this has something to do with the Chiss Ascendancy and their methods of traversing hyperspace through the Force , it ’s really much less subtle than that .
In the final issuing ofStar Wars : Legacy - War , Cade Skywalker flies his ship into a sun , as it incorporate the body of Darth Krayt , and that seemed the unspoiled way to avert another resurrection . Before the ship was vaporize , Cade jettisoned himself into space wearing a space suit . While he moved steadily through the stars , Cade said - in so many words - that he was now a true ‘ sky - Zimmer ’ , making this perhaps the wildest of the 10 standout moments fromStar warfare : Legacy .
