New Custom - Resurrected Darth Krayt

I am a regular reader of the Star Wars Legacy comic series, I think the storyline is quite interesting and it has been worth following. I only buy the graphic novel volumes and not the individual comic issues. It's much easy to follow and much more cost effective to collect. With that said, I am not always up to date on the latest issues as the wait between the collected volumes takes some time. After the apparent Death of Darth Krayt the series lost it's "epic edge" and the story has drifted along in a ho-hum fashion. (Much like season 3 of the Clone Wars cartoon) I was quite convinced that Darth Krayt would return in some stereotypical sci-fi fashion. This is Star Wars after all, predictable cliche's and recycled story lines are part of it's DNA. To no ones surprise he has been revived!!! Who would have thought? At least they did not handle his death/resurrection in a Dallas dream sequence fashion. I found out about his return when I stumbled across an image of the Reborn Krayt in an ad for the upcoming Dark Horse releases on Rebelscum. I looked on Wookiepedia for more information about it and saw pictures of a crusty version of the regenerated Krayt but there were no other images of him in the promo picture costume. Despite not having any other reference on his new costume, I thought it would be a cool custom figure to create. I based the look of my new custom on this lone promo image:

I will have to wait for the release of the new volume to catch up on the story arc but I am hoping that some more images appear of him in his new Sith duds soon. I am very happy that the writers brought back the main antagonists of this timelines story. While the other Sith Mime Warriors are cool, the A'sharad Hett/Clone Wars connection really helped bridge the story lines together. It also gave me a reason to care as some other fan favorite characters appear as well. Hopefully the story's "epicness" will pick up again now that there is a real reason for Cade of embrace his Jedi destiny. I was getting really bored with the very redundant reluctant Jedi drug addict shtick. It was beginning to remind me of the Spider-Man movie plots where Peter and Mary Jane break up, then get back together, then they break up again and then they cry while finally getting back together...again! Seriously, man up, wipe the tears and cut some bad guys up with a Lightsaber already! Who are they kidding? We all know that Cade will eventually embrace his destiny, become a full fledged Jedi, defeat Darth Krayt and his Sith Empire to finally bring peace to the Galaxy while rebuilding the Jedi Order! (Peace will last until the next Star Wars storyline when the next generation of Jedi screws up by being too passively "emo" and gets wiped out yet again. That's where Lukes great, great, great, great Granddaughter must embrace her destiny to save the Universe while restoring the Jedi Order...yet again! You know we would read it. Just admit it to yourself.)
