OH KRIFF I just finished reading “The Rise of Kylo Ren” #1 (I was able to get it on Kindle from Amazon, luckily, because I was having problems with Comixology) and it has me:
t r e m b l i n g
[More under a “read more” because of spoilers of TROKR and some mentions of TROS speculation.]
I was surprised to see that the comic started with the Knights of Ren and Mr. Hottie McHotHot aka their leader. And the more I see, the more my suspicions arise about him being Ben from the future or another timeline. Like, yeah, not as if a comic called “The Rise of Kylo Ren” starting with someone apparently other than Ben, masked, saying “I am called Ren. But that’s not my name”, is... pretty kriffing suspicious
And, honestly, I’m super excited speculating about this
It’s hilarious because I’ve been trembling from page one, and everything gets even more epic considering I had an “eerie” playlist while reading
The bad thing? Kindle for PC apparently has no zoom (why), so I kinda lose a lot of details, but well, hopefully the Android version will have it
But yeah, I’m just... I’m overall blown away. Ben’s expressions are absolutely nailed (page 17 was like a big ouch with him putting on that expression, and my goodness, page 22 slayed me there in the spot specially with him remembering Leia T_T And page 26... “I never... I didn’t want this”... Ben... </3 Q_Q) and now I have so many feels. Damn. The art, overall, is astounding
Tai’s such a good man, and really believed Ben... Ouch :( I really hope he doesn’t die, but... yeah, I have a feeling he’s just gonna die. Voe (who has a damn badass design) and Hennix are interesting, but seeing them draw their lightsabers from the start and not believing Ben stings. So, yeah: stan Tai for believing Ben
Also: FREAKING KRIFFING “ELSEWHERE”
WHAT. IS. THAT. I love it and it looks gorgeous but WHAT THE KRIFF IS THAT?? It gives me THE CREEPS and the only thing I can think of “hey look at this modified Mortis” and “oh look, giant tree of life but dead”
ALSO IS THAT THE KRIFFING T H R O N E OF THE TRAILERS BUT WITHOUT THE SPIKES??
The first thing that comes to my mind is that he’s draining that place of life
I really hope this piece of shit Snoke/Palpatine (whatever he is exactly) dies a most painful (and hopefully humilliating) death in TROS asdfbflfnglgmg
The fact that Ben hugged him?? Just how much had this baby been lied and manipulated and— *internally screaming in anger and sadness*
I swear to any deity out there, if Ben dies in TROS with no resurrection, if he doesn’t have a happy ending, I’m going to rage inside
I’m still trembling, guys—and tomorrow we got TROS going on, just a little bit more than 24h in my case...
