[@Jackal_El_Lobo34]

@@rjofusetsudzin8011 Very true. I don’t know what Palpatine was expecting. Maybe he sincerely believed that he had crushed Vader’s ambitions to overthrow him after displaying his power but that’s still a dumb move. To the comics credit, he does seem to hold that sentiment in ROTJ as he boasted to Luke in front of Vader that he believed that he could never be redeemed. It’s funny how he was willing to perform acts of Machiavellianism to achieve power but wasn’t strategic enough to maneuver around relationships to sustain it since he preferred to spell it out that he’s a bad dude.

@@IsaiahRichards692 Because he didn't expect it . He was surprised. He was so angry at Luke and thought that after demonstrating his power to Vader that the latter would give up on turning against him. What he didn't expect was Vader returning to the Light side (in a weakened state). That's why he lost . Oh and one more thing he was perhaps afraid at that moment because he didn't believe of the chosen one prophecy and the fact that Vader choose to save his son choose that it was real. So in short he was surprised, afraid and was unprepared for this.

the prequels needed a whole ass show lmao

[@danielhounshell2526]

@@cucumberwater6 not really, the story of the prequels fundamentally made sense without the shows. Dunk on the screenwriting and CGI all you want, but the actual plot was fairly solid. The reality is that the prequels introduced an interesting enough world for other writers to create works to expand on it. It engaged the imagination and got people invested in the world it presented, even the people who hated the films. The sequels haven't done that, no one is looking for stories that take place in the world the sequels showed us. In fact, almost no mainline show or movie other than the sequels have touched the sequel era, since what little isn't recycled or creatively bankrupt is so fundamentally broken in terms of plot that even their attempts at explanation break other pieces of the universe, such as why the hell they wasted their time building a second death star if they already had a fleet of planet killing star destroyers in production.

[@tyrannicfool2503]

@@danielhounshell2526 I honestly disagree to a certain point, the clone wars helped a lot woth anakin's character since it clearly shows him being groomed by Palpatine and his grievances with the jedi order. It also did a lot of neccesary world building in regards to how the republic slowly became the empire.

[@danielhounshell2526]

@@tyrannicfool2503 that is true, the sequels did make the prequels better retroactively, but it's important to note that it did so by adding depth and dimensions to characters and conflicts that were already fundamentally at least serviceable. The plot of the prequels wasn't fundamentally broken to begin with, it was just somewhat lacking depth and detail in some areas. The plot of the sequel trilogy however is fundamentally broken to the extent that even the retcons that you have to do in order to make stories that take place after that trilogy still break parts of the universe.

[@Triplebrc]

In comics: Vader attempting to kill his master with a mountain sized supernatural cthulhu monster, but not doing any damage. In movies: Vader picking up his master like he is just an old grumpy man and casually throwing him down a shaft like he is some trashbag. You can clearly see that the movies never meant for the characters to be anything more than normal people with a slight boost in reflexes, some amateur telekinesis and force lightning so weak that it takes minutes to kill a single human being with it, while they are basically world destroying Marvel characters in the comics.

[@silverletter4551]

It's a certain distortion of an original vision. Old versions of characters just aren't good enough for people so they have to come up with more powerful versions, ultimately getting more inconceivable over time.

[@danielhounshell2526]

I mean, they've never been able to fly, and palpatine was caught off guard. Not really the most unbelievable thing. Not to mention he still killed Vader with his lightning in the couple of seconds he had after being caught off guard.

[@PlayersPurity]

@@danielhounshell2526 I like to believe Palpatine was so focused on killing Luke that he didn't think of his surroundings as much and trusted Vader enough to not believe him make a sudden change of mind.

[@aquietviewer6469]

The fact that there ever became a Darth Vader and that Anakin survived is an eternal flex in itself.

[@zXSEBOXz]

I always felt like the only reason Vader continues to serve Palpatine is because he knows that the pain and suffering that he experiences daily as a result for being the whipping boy of the same man who manipulated him into betraying his closest friends and killing his wife would only make him stronger with the dark side. Like, I believe Vader IS physically powerful enough with the force and as a combatant to kill Palpatine if it were a deathmatch situation outside of canon, but within universe Vader cannot exist without Palpatine and vice versa. It's like Vader intentionally tortures himself by being Palpatine's apprentice both because it makes him more powerful, and because he believes he deserves it.

Honestly in a straight up fight Vader would kill Sidious than vice versa, but Sidious wisely keeps Vader in the dark disconnected from his power base to get him in a position to kill him.

[@JackTheShadowMuncher]

No way Vader would beat Palpatine in a 1v1. Maybe if it was purely a saber battle, then yes, But with the force Palpatine is definitely superior and not to mention far more experienced.

[@Yokai_Yuri]

In no universe Vader can defeat Sidious. Not in L.S duels or the force. The reason Sidious keeps Vader in the dark is to keep using him as a pawn. There is a comic where Sidious easily disarmed Vader, used force crush to destroy Vader' limbs and then proceeded to finsh him off with a small portion of force lightning. Also remember Sidious can amp himself with the darkside meaning Vader's brute force in L.S duels will be meaningless.

What palpatine's psychotic mindset fails to understand is basic human emotion. Think about it, how much easier would it be for Vader to constantly be loyal to his master if his master actually gave a shit about him, like a father-son sort of deal. If Palpy didn't give in to psychotic and sadistic mindset, something tells me vader would've thought twice before deciding to overthrow him. Other darksiders understood this, as they weren't evil, where Palpatine, is nothing short of true evil.

[@InunoTaishou07]

Palpatine told Yoda that Vader would become "more powerful then either of us" Had Anakin not been weakened or permanently injured on Mustafar he would of been at his full potential eventually. With Vaders wounds and lungs never being completely healed he was never at 100% although still very powerful, not 100% of his potential. On top of that Palpatine sent him off around the galaxy doing chores while he left to getting deeper into the Sith Arts and growing and cultivating his power and influence. Without prep i think Vader could take Palpatine on. If knowing ahead of time i think Palpatine would set him up for failure. Palpatine is a master at manipulation. He manipulated everyone including the wise Jedi without getting caught till it was too late.

I don't read the comics so these videos are all the info I have so I have to ask, is it ever explained/expanded how Vader killed Palpatine so easily? I know Vader ended up dying so easily probably isn't the right word but this video shows that Palpatine is like majorly powerful and Vader whilst powerful isn't as powerful as he could've been cause of his injuries and the suit. So I just don't understand how Vader was simply able to surprise him and throw him to his death? (Obviously I get all this information about Palpatines strength has come after ROTJ, but if they're gonna add on how uber powerful he is then surely they have to have an explanation of how he died so easily?)

[@prometheusmodelow8322]

Palpatine got caught off guard being too focused and angry at Luke, basically, and Anakin was acting powered up by the Force with the full motivation to save Luke at that point, plus, he died almost immediately just by taking a bit of Palpatine's Lightning.

This is the first I have seen of this comic, and it seems clear to me they made Vader and the Emperor ridiculously overpowered compared to the films. Sometimes less is more.
