    Anyone else think of star whales from Doctor Who when reading this issue?

    Well this is crazy...I literally just said I have never seen anything like these before. I am currently reading the Old Republic Era Legends comics and I just finished Tales of the Jedi: The Saga of Nomi Sunrider (1994). And what did appear before my eyes? Something very much akin to these creature ships in Vader #5. They are Ore Transports built by integrating manufactured components with the giant exoskeleton of an Ithullian Wasp. Granted, the wasps are no longer living and are only a shell, but I can actually no longer say that I have never seen anything like it in Star Wars.

    I think there is some sort of malevolent Dark Side entity pulling the strings.

    Oh, I know, I just didn't want to get too pedantic with my pun. There was a couple years in college where I basically listened to nothing but Joy Division and The Smiths (I had some angst 20s)

    Mechanization vs nature and The Force has long been a theme of Star Wars. Kylo could be a continuation of this theme.

    @Kyle... can't wait for your SW #6 review...favorite of the SW series so far...the writer still has the Han and Leia banter nailed and it's confirmed that Boba Fett is a ruthless BMF...I mean he beat down Gorro in this issue...maybe he'll make a cameo in the next Mortal Kombat installment. :)

    I really liked the art in this one and the story is probably the best after Kanan!

    Sorry, if someone asked this before. But are the cyborgs named cylo or cyclo?

    The leader cyborg is called Cylo. He puts a number after his name to indicate how many bodies he's been through - when his body dies, he copies his memories and personality into another body and starts again. He is now up to Cylo-V.

    Thank you! Could that mean Adam Driver's character is named Cylo Ren instead of Kylo Ren?!

    Edit: As far as i know, we have just the trading card reverence for his name...
