10 Biggest WTF Star Wars Moments
2. Darth Maul Survives! - The Clone Wars
And one of the reason fans are right to hold out hope for the aforementioned Kino's survival can be found in this very entry!
After seemingly being decisively cut down by Obi-Wan Kenobi in the wake of taking out his master on Naboo, those who felt they'd sadly seen the last of one of the coolest Sith Lords in the galaxy were treated to a rather stunning comeback in The Clone Wars animated series.
Driven mad in the wake of that aforementioned bisecting, Maul is shockingly discovered by his own brother Savage Opress ten years on from that Kenobi clash during Season Four. And the one-time apprentice of Darth Sidious is now seen sporting a particularly creepy mechanical, spider-like body on the back of his sheer hatred remarkably keeping him alive.
The animalistic creature that Maul had become in his exile soon has his mind repaired by Mother Talzin on Dathomir, however. And this paved the way for a far more driven and enraged version of the Force-sensitive icon than fans had ever seen before on their screens as he set his sights on revenge against his mortal enemy... KENOOOOOBI!
