SPOILER Marvel's Star Wars Kanan #7

This comic is just getting better and better. I LOVE IT!

Caleb is such precious character - mischievous, curious and honest. I liked how he was asking questions the same way he was asking Obi-Wan in the prologue of A New Dawn. The art showed brilliantly how other Jedi react to that - Windu is always frowning, but Depa is laughing. Plus, when in doubt, he doesn't presume, he goes straight to Billaba to ask her. They are obviously compatible. I already love them together.

I don't think Obi-Wan has a crush on her, I think he is just genuinely happy that she is well and not suspicious of her abilities like the others. He is an honest one too.

The artwork was amazing from the beginning, I love how expressive it is, and it's still great. Everyone should read this comic. I cannot wait for more.

 

@Darth Daigo, you know, you could be right. Great eye!

 

I noticed this also and I'm glad you posted the panel. Saves me the time. Great cameo.

Depa looks more like a youthful supermodel in the new canon, which is not really how she came across on screen originally (below). This stands out with her facial features, especially her nose (looks like she had a little work done in this department). But I don't mind so much as I like how her character is being fleshed out, and I am loving her and Kanan's relationship. I wonder if they will get into her being Mace's former padawan like she was in the EU?



Anyways, the Kanan comic series is my favorite overall for its consistency with good story telling and expressive artwork (as @LadyMusashi points out). This issue may even be my favorite, and it was all set-up basically, which bodes well for what will inevitably be a more action packed issue #8.

 

Do you mean the actual mission or the fallout from the mission's failure? I think it's likely she chooses not to rejoin the council due to her failure, and that is why she is not on it in Ep 3. But we also know that she is on Kaller with Kanan at the time, so it's possible she is still on the council but is just away on mission and is unable to attend or appear via hologram.

 

I found a cool article on the official starwars website. Here's the roster as I gathered from the article:

I noticed the difference as well. However, the novel Dark Disciple, which is also canon, includes the original code verbatim. So this is probably just an abbreviated version conducive to the meditation exercise.
