"Darth Maul: Death Sentence" finds the title character and his brother Savage Opress

Really.

Oh, crap. I rather like The Clone Wars animated series, but haven't see anything post season two. I already knew something about Darth Maul's brother and it seemed lame, but reviving Darth Maul himself? Ugh.

That's like the dumbest thing ever. Really, the lower part of the body isn't there just to house the butt and legs, there's no way in hell that someone sliced in half at the waist would have survived.

What's next? Using Krazy Glue to put Jango Fett's head back on his neck and have him good as new? Oh no, no need for that, after all the mandalorian rebels worship him and feel the need to use the same garments as him, so we already have an army of him. But wait! He's the template of the Clone Troopers, so make that two armies of him!

Yeah, this looks really pathetic. It also kind of ruins the ending of "Phantom Menace". It was Obe Kanobe's (I have no idea how to spell that) big moment when he stops being an apprentice and becomes a Jedi Knight, avenging his former teacher and taking out the badass Maul. Now, Kanobe looks like that one Jedi who simply can't get the job done when it comes to killing a Sith (neither Maul nor Vader).
