Welcome to Part 1 of our 2-part discussion of Tales of the Underworld - here on For The Republic: A Love Letter to Star Wars Animation! Andrew (@StarlightAndrew) & Conor (@DepaBanana) are joined by special guest and noted Asajj Ventress superfan Catrina Dennis (@ohcatrina) to talk about the Asajj Ventress arc of Tales of the Underworld! We talk the major moments from her 3 episodes - including the on-screen depiction of the ending of the Dark Disciple novel, the much-anticipated reveal of how Ventress returned from the dead, her relationship with Quinlan Vos, the search for the Hidden Path, the introduction of Lyco Strata, Lyco and Ventress' dynamic, the return of Latts Razzi, how the galaxy views Ventress after The Clone Wars, her continued redemption story, and more. We also discuss whether or not we think these stories act as a "backdoor pilot" for a future Ventress animated series, or for Ventress to play a major role in Maul: Shadow Lord.
Episodes Discussed: "A Way Forward" (S3E1), "Friends" (S3E2), "One Warrior to Another" (S3E3)
