| Sith Holocron: Webcomic Issue 16 | |
|
 This week's update was a bit of a let down. We have seen all these teasers that could be the lead up to a big release of the "Sith Agent" class and we just get another 3 pages to the webcomic. We at least get to see the Bounty Hunter kill a Republic Officer and maybe a Jedi. If you haven't read the update yet I suggest you do it now and come back to this article. In this particular story arc we have Braden the human Bounty Hunter finally getting his revenge on the Republic Officer who ordered him to not kill his target. Seriously, who tells a Bounty Hunter not to kill his target. That was just a dumb move on the Officer's part. He also deliver's the message that the Empire is attacking first, then accusing the Republic of opening fire, but we believe he has killed Master Zym, the Kel Dor Jedi. At the end the Wookie Bounty Hunter is right on Braden's tail. I'm gonna say this right now so you guys don't get your hopes up; That will be the ONLY Wookie Bounty Hunter. He is not allowed on Korriban and there has been mention that he is a rare occurance in the galaxy. Sorry boys, but no furry Bounty Hunters for you. Bounty Hunters played by characters need access to Korriban at some point and the webcomic has stated that the Wookie is not allowed there no matter what his business is to be had with the Sith.
 In this issue we also see some more Kel Dor love with the whole half page image of Master Zym using the Force on Braden. I'm going to make the call that Master Zym is not dead. He is a Jedi Master and a big part of the story. Master Zym is the one ordering some of the Jedi to help with the extraction effort due to the "Peace Treaty", and I believe he is on the Jedi Council. Yes, he took a rocket to the face, but he is a Jedi, they have all kinds of stuff thrown at them. I'm sure he threw up a force barrier that detonated the rocket and the impact knocked him unconscious.  In the last page we also see an explosion occur in the nearby building. I believe this is where Master Zym was until he was called for the meeting. This would send the message that someone else is out to kill Master Zym and Braden accidentally saved his life, if we use my theory that Zym is only knocked out. Though that leaves us wondering who set off that explosion? Can't have been the Wookie, why would he do that? He had no reason to set that explosion. We'll just have to wait till the next issue. Not a very big update really, but this makes me wonder if next week will be the big kicker. This small size update must mean that Bioware is working on making next week a doozy of an update. Sorry, if this wasn't the update you were looking for, but don't worry, we still have a whole week to see if something else gets leaked! This is Malice wishing the Force to be with you in your travels. See you next week. |
