Darth Maul Fans, You Definitely Missed Out On the Shadow Lord's Solo Series 11 Years Ago
While waiting for Shadow Lord in 2026, Star Wars fans should check out Darth Maul's first canon solo series released over a decade ago.
Palpatine's apprentice, Darth Maul was nothing more than a tool to winnow down the ranks of the Jedi ahead of Darth Sidious' true plans. Discarded after he was defeated by Obi-Wan Kenobi on Naboo, Darth Maul swore revenge against all those he blamed for his past struggles - Jedi and Sith alike. Maul tended to operate within the shadows, running various syndicates, and even established himself as a true rival for Palpatine on at least one occasion. He was eventually killed by Obi-Wan in a duel on Tatooine.
