Is jedi VS Sith still canon?
Yes.

I just got a copy of the book Beware the Dark Side,
by Simon Beecroft, and I'm confused over three
things.
First, it says that the Sith revealed themselves to
the Jedi after two thousand years of hiding. Is this
a typo?
Second, it says that Boba Fett died in the Sarlacc.
It doesn't hint; rather, it flat out states, "Fett
t finally tumbled to his death into the ravenous jaws
of a giant desert creature called the Sarlacc."
What's going on here? This is a brand new,
, officially licensed book. Why is it tossing out
all the post-episode VI Boba Fett stuff?
Finally, it refers to "Luke and Leia Skywalker." Did
Leia really use the Skywalker name?

Wow I'll def. be skipping this one.

*In Star Wars Insider #69, in the HoloNet News
section, it says: ...The initial assault claimed 32
clones, all from the 43rd "Killer-Aiwha" Battalion,
and there are three confirmed Jedi deaths: Dalnus
Cam, Sana-Jis Ilowa, and Rallcema Bylissura.*
Yes, those are the three Jedi we see in the comic,
but we never determined which name went to which
character.

Thank You, that's been bothering me for the longest time. :)

*Apparently the Star Wars: Complete Cross-Sections has tried to resolve the "Tydirium Capture" dispute. However, it claims that Ace Azzameen stole the codes, not the ship, while Antilles stole the actual ship from Prefsbelt IV. Is that particular mission now declared non-canon (I hope not, it was a far superior set up to the Rogue Squadron rendition), and if not, what's the situation? *
We tried to encapsulate all the versions of the stealing of the Tydirium without having to subjectively determine which was the "far superior set up."

    • Is he the broken Droid in Jabba's Dungeon? Hasbro's backcard says that this is CZ-4.
  • Is he the CZ Droid who can later be seen in Jabba's Throne Room when he sentences the heroes to the Sarlacc? I think this must be CZ-4 (his CCG card shows him standing)
  • Is he both these Droids?*
Yes, yes, and yes. As we saw with C-3PO in ESB, it doesn't really take that long to reassemble this type of droid no matter their state of disrepair.

What Rebel Echo Base trooper spoke the line 'Echo Station 3-T-8. We've spotted Imperial Walkers'?
Trey Callum.

So was Ms. Hewett incorrectly informed at C III, or is the Double Agent card mistaken in its identification of Shada?
Hewett was Brea... I mean Shada. Check out the Q&A of Insider #95 for the full answer.

In Star Wars Insider #69, in the HoloNet News section, it says: ...The initial assault claimed 32 clones, all from the 43rd "Killer-Aiwha" Battalion, and there are three confirmed Jedi deaths: Dalnus Cam, Sana-Jis Ilowa, and Rallcema Bylissura.
Yes, those are the three Jedi we see in the comic, but we never determined which name went to which character.

And yes, in the EU, we still say Boba Fett survived the Sarlacc.

I saw that note, but I thought it was taking a dismissive attitude toward that view. More like, "Fett died, but some people think he escaped." I thought this because it doesn't say some people think he died, but just that he died. Maybe you're right to think it was written in universe shortly after episode VI, but in any case, it's written in a confusing manner.

Re: Beware the Dark Side: If you note on the bottom right corner of the page, it says "Possible Escape: Some people believe that Boba managed to escape from the stomach of the Sarlacc." There you have it. The book isn't written in-universe, but if it was the text could be said to have been written in the months or years shortly after Return of the Jedi before the galaxy at large was aware that Fett was alive and well.

Yet another continuity question:
In Star Wars Insider #69, in the HoloNet News section, it says:

Separatists Attack Shelter Base
...The initial assault claimed 32 clones, all from the 43rd "Killer-Aiwha" Battalion, and there are three confirmed Jedi deaths: Dalnus Cam, Sana-Jis Ilowa, and Rallcema Bylissura.

So, in the Clone Wars 3: Last Stand on Jabiim comic collection, during said Separatist attack, we see a male human Jedi trying to call for help during the early moments. Is this Dalnus Cam? We also see one female human Jedi getting stabbed in the back by Alto Stratus, and another reporting all clear at the base just before the attack. Are these two Rallcema and Sana-Jis? Who's who? Are all three of them Jedi Knights and, thereby, Generals?

Thank you very much

With the sad recent passing of Christine Hewett, one of the Tonnika Sisters from A New Hope, the issue of which Sister/Mistryl is which has again risen its head.

Apparently, at Celebration III, Ms. Hewett was identified as Brea Tonnika, as she recollects here.

On the other hand, in "Hammertong: The Tale of the 'Tonnika Sisters'," it's stated that Shada D'ukal is portraying Brea (from pg. 83 of Tales from the Mos Eiseley Cantina, "'Brea, not Shada,' Shada corrected her. 'And you're Senni.') And the Double Agent CCG card has a picture of Angela Staines's character as Shada.

So was Ms. Hewett incorrectly informed at C III, or is the Double Agent card mistaken in its identification of Shada?

A subplot of Sacrifice involves a group of Verpine named "Roche." Is this supposed to be the droid manufacturer Roche, or does it refer to the government of the Roche asteroids? It's never really made clear in the novel.

Well, then I guess it's time we can finally find out who is who and what sources are wrong on this matter.

This would contradict CZ-3's Databank entry:

"Stolen, liberated and re-stolen several times, the droid was eventually tracked down by the bounty hunting brothers of Takeel and Zutton. Zutton destroyed the droid and apprehended Mcgrrrr. A pair of mischievous Mos Eisley droid dealers promptly stole the droid's remains."

Update regarding the CZ Droids:
The Fact Files state that CZ-3 is indeed the disembled Droid in Jabba's dungeon that Threepio notices. This should mean that CZ-4 is the CZ Droid standing in Jabba's Palace. I'm not sure how to interpret Hasbro's backcard. Maybe CZ-4 was also damaged but repaired before the events of 'RotJ'. And then again, Hasbro has been known to make mistakes. On Helrot's back they say Kala'uun is a planet ...

I wrote on May 16, 2007:

How have you decided to treat the "Conan Antonio Motti" name from the recent Conan O'Brien show for Holocron purposes? Is it just another joke, or are you taking it a bit more seriously than that?

For those interested in the answer (and there's more to the answer than just "yep, that's his canon name"), it's in the newest Insider, #96.

I've got a question about the CZ Droids.

What droid is CZ-4?
  • Is he the broken Droid in Jabba's Dungeon? Hasbro's backcard says that this is CZ-4.
  • Is he the CZ Droid who can later be seen in Jabba's Throne Room when he sentences the heroes to the Sarlacc? I think this must be CZ-4 (his CCG card shows him standing)
  • Is he both these Droids?

  • If CZ-4 isn't the broken droid in the dungeon, is that CZ-3 then, as mentioned as a 'possible' candidate on Behind the Magic?

Also, Behind the Magic mentions that a CZ Droid appears in 'TESB'. Could you please tell us where a CZ Droid can be seen in 'TESB'? Echo Base? Cloud City? I've never seen it before, nor seen it on any production photos of 'TESB'.

Thx :)

Tasty, I'm afraid I've got to re-ask a question from yester-year.

Apparently the Star Wars: Complete Cross-Sections has tried to resolve the "Tydirium Capture" dispute. However, it claims that Ace Azzameen stole the codes, not the ship, while Antilles stole the actual ship from Prefsbelt IV.

How can that work? Not only did Azzameen have nothing to do with the literal capture of the ship (If I recall, he ferried the commandos to Zhar and covered their retreat in the ship), but the mission literally shows the ship flying away from Zhar and back to the Liberty

Is that particular mission now declared non-canon (I hope not, it was a far superior set up to the Rogue Squadron rendition), and if not, what's the situation? Is it one of those "Battle of Wayland" type things?
