As TCW fans, we'd get excited seeing venators arrive as they're about to go into battle and save the day. Now we dread seeing them as they're about to oppress the worlds they once protected

I flipped on Crosshair so quick

I was determined to not like Crosshair. He was doing all that without his implant? Jail. Welp, here I am a few episodes into S3 and I love him. I think it’s hilarious how fast and how aggressively he adapted to a dad role. In this episode alone:

- “Stay close, it’s easy to get lost in this terrain.”
- “You’re as bad as Hunter!” “Oh, I’m much worse.”
- “Stick by my side, and stay down.“

This man realized he and the Empire didn’t have a reciprocal sense of respect and loyalty, so he swapped those emotions and actions to Omega. What a guy.

Bad Batch Lego Figures

Finally got my custom Bad Batch Lego figures and they look incredible! All are custom figures bought off eBay (minus Omega) and damn, I love them all!

For some extra context around this moment: when the rogue clones saw that Crosshair wasn't with the rest of the Batch, they detonated smoke bombs assuming that he was far off to provide cover fire, a natural assumption for both them and us as the reader. Good thing our Clone Force 99 is always a step ahead!

And we finally got to see Tech without his goggles for exactly one second, let's go!

Could this be a hint at what happened to Rex's cell of rogue clones?

When we first meet Rex in Rebels, we have some interesting dialogue. When Kanan learns he's talking to clones, he draws his lightsaber. Wolf then attacks, saying, "Jedi. They've come for revenge." After a moment, Rex calms him down, saying that they're Jedi, yes, but "not the ones that betrayed us."

I know that when this episode aired, it was probably about Order 66, but many times, various words spoken in Star Wars have taken on new meanings or had additional backstories added to them. Especially since it doesn't quite fit with Order 66. That it wasn't the Jedi who betrayed US, but the Jedi who betrayed the Republic.

Especially since there's a lot of interesting plot to unpack.

After Tantis, Rex and the other clones wanted to hide the Force-sensitive children released from the vault. To this end, they may have begun collaborating with a group of surviving Jedi or the Path. These Jedi may have distrusted them or, for example, betrayed them and exposed the Empire to their own hiding place.

Rex and the other clones may also have encountered fallen Jedi who wanted to take revenge on the Empire but were unable to do so and began to exact revenge on the clones.

Like I said, there's a lot of interesting plot. I was hoping there might be some kind of announcement about the Clone Wars on May 4th, but it looks like we'll have to wait another year.

Ok so I just finished the Clone wars and got my heart ripped out and stomped all over and now started the Bad Batch. And like I'm already so attached to all of them. But especially Hunter and Omega like that's his daughter. I never ask for spoilers but in this case I don't think I can handle it if anything happens to them. So like basically without spoiling too too much am I going to be crushed again?
