InStar Wars Tales # 9published by Dark Horse , written by Ron Marz , and illustrate by Rick Leonardi , Palpatine arrives at the major planet in individual .

Given thatPalpatine is just as problematic as Yoda in the   Star Wars canyon , it is foreign to see a Legends story that shows the Emperor behave so recklessly . Even before he rise to the rank of Emperor , Palpatine was very suspicious of those around him . This paranoia only amplified tenfold once he drive restraint of the Republic . Usually , he ’s only see either in an Imperial stronghold such as a Star Destroyer or at the Imperial Palace on Coruscant . He ’s almost never seen in the field , let alone on an uncontrolled planet that was define up as a trap .

If anything , Emperor Palpatine is favorable thatRogue Onewiped out this story from the Star Wars canon . BecauseRogue Onetakes home directly beforeA New Hope , there would be no time for the rebels to not only scat with the plans but really cover with them on a satellite away from the Empire ’s scene . So this story logically would n’t be able to take place in Star Wars lore . And this terrible mistake made by an otherwise strategical and calculating politician was actually never made . What ’s even more shocking is that he actually trace Darth Vader there , a completely unnecessary peril the calculating   Emperor Palpatine   would flout at . WhileRogue Oneproved to be a dissentious film in theStar Warscanon , at the very least it madePalpatinemore competent than his amusing counterpart .
