    Welcome back to the grind! Im sure I’ll be shocked, amazed, (and probably a little jealous ) of what you pull off. Looking forward to the updates.

    Straw-man argument, much? All I’m pointing out is that neither the Inquisitors nor Vader know Obi was hiding out on Tatooine. And a connection between Bail and Obi is tenuous at best, based on what’s been shown in Clone Wars. You could argue a connection between Bail and Yoda (being spotted after the Senate Duel), but there’s not much there. Now why Vader didn’t check out or follow up on his step-brother? Who knows. But that’s been an issue since ROTS.

    Except, none of the “bad guys” know Obi was hiding out on Tatooine. The only reason they were on Tatooine in the first place was to get that low level Jedi. They didn’t know Obi was there at all. They captured Leia and took her to that one planet. Obi lured over there, and start of chase. There’s nothing there to connect Obi to Tatooine from the Empire’s perspective.

    Star Wars is damned if they do, damned if they don’t. We all complained (rightly so) that BOBF struggled IN PART because all the action, even the flashback, was stuck on Tattooine. Well, they got Obi off that sand-locked planet and have moved him around. Leia presented the most obvious way to get Obi off-world. There’s no way Uncle Owen leaves Tattooine. Dude is just a farmer, who just wants to do his thing and be left the hell alone. Also, Obi’s been in hiding for 10 years, keeping a low profile. Any hero saving-complexes he had have been beaten down. During that entire rescue of Leia, did he even once ignite the lightsaber? Nope, he used an “uncivilized” blaster, because, again, he doesn’t want to bring any attention to being a Jedi.

    The Obi series takes place 10 years after the start of the Empire. Doesn’t take much to get disillusioned and annoyed. Heck, that one clone on Ryloth got disillusioned right quick in Bad Batch.

    I always considered the Inquisitors to be a just a step above Stormtroopers: they can use the Force, but they’re often getting pwned by the main characters. It’s not like Rebels really made any of them out to be formidable enemies.

    The OCD part of me is curious what you're gonna add in that empty spot in the bottom right corner. 😅 Very nice displays, running the whole gamut of Macross!

    Obi and Yoda went into hiding. Seriously doubt Bail’s just randomly dropping off news to Obi. After ROTS, they probably all know to keep the kids safe and keep a low profile (well except for the Galactic Senator). Makes sense that Bail would only contact Obi for only the most dire of circumstances and doubt Bail’s in the know about Vader’s true identity. Even if grumblings about a former Jedi hunting and slaughtering his own kind makes it all the way to backwoods Tattooine, I don’t think Obi’s in the right state of mind to fully process it. He clearly hasn’t heard squat from Qui-Gon in 10 years, still has massive hurt from “killing” Anakin and seeing Padme die, and has a mission that forces him to lay low and not draw attention to himself.

    Still one of the best and varied anime soundtracks around, especially the orchestral stuff:

    Okay, this was a good start. For once, Star Wars got a well-casted kid. Kinda “duh” how they got Ben out. But let’s see how this all pans out. Reva’s solid. I actually stumbled into watching a bit of The Queen’s Gambit right before watching Obi and was reminded of how good the actress is. Also, love the old vet’s cameo. Lastly, Deborah Chow was definitely taking notes and “gets” what makes Star Wars work.

    Jeremy Jahns pretty much hits the nail on the head with this: They have a built-in continuation with Bullseye getting "upgraded" and giving DD an excuse to go back to the red armor (to even the odds). . . . Though I doubt Poindexter goes after the Devil of Hell's Kitchen so much as go after Fisk instead. Three out of the five Netflix shows have obvious continuations. But if they don't get the right folks to continue DD and Cage's stories, just forget it.

    Always knew Minmei was cray-cray! Poor Misa must have been distracted to be caught in a situation like that.

    If DD isn’t rocking the black bandana, They already nerfed Fisk. The only ending of a D+ Marvel show that didn’t annoy me was Falcon & Winter Soldier. I’m kinda fatigued out with Marvel’s formula at this point. If they allow these shows to be what they were on Netflix, then absolutely give me more. But if you water it down or try to hamfist some multiverse junk in there that doesn’t belong, then no.

    The last guitar riff here reminds me a little of God Knows from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya:

    Either make the eyes, nose, and mouth slightly bigger. And/or reduce the five-head.

    Is it too early to ask about the Tread? Wonder if we'll see an updated prototype or a fully-colored prototype at the next big convention/fair.

    Hoo boy! What rabbit hole have you caused me to fall into @505thAirborne? Crunchy guitar and bass riffs in a maid/lolita goth package?

    So Google’s algorithm linked me this interesting tidbit about ROTJ: https://www.sfgate.com/streaming/amp/What-happened-to-Endor-from-Star-Wars-17145105.php The idea that some restaurant’s patio deck was made from the Ewok village or a tree that some Imperial Speeder Bike crashed into is kinda amusing.

    If Tom Hardy can survive the first horrible even numbered Trek film, anything’s possible.
