It is due out March 23rd, and rumors still abound that the story of the lone and troubled Jedi Darca Nyls is an origin story for Darth Nihllus... has anyone picked up the first parts of the story to confirm or unconfirm the origin story rumor?

Darca Nyls isn't born for another 4000 years

 

The KOTOR story is about the 3 Jedi who were killed on the their hunt for the Terentak beast

Does it actually have anything to do with KotOR or is it just set before?

[Darth Nuke]

Just set before. It just covers the story of Duron Qel-Droma and his two friends who went to hunt the Sith beast.

So the Darca Nyls story is set just pre-jedi purge? I haven't gotten arount to ordering the last few issues of fof Darkhorse's site yet

Hmmm... I don't like Prequels. I like to read and play what the action is going on now instead of what is going on in the past. Overuse of prequels and flashbacks weaken a story, not strengthen it.

I don't mind prequels as you have so many examples of prequels being strong stories. Indian Jones and the Temple of Doom comes to mind off the top of my head.

 

Oh, and I found a website that states that the Darca story is 6 months after Phantom Menace. I think that rumor started because people saw the image of Darth Nihilus in the preview for the comic and made a connection between the names... but of course that probably means that the 3 jedi run into Nihlus in the comic, I'd assume.

I agree Hades. The trouble with prequels is that you know where everything has to lead to, as you're a dozen steps ahead of the PC/NPC's in the game. When you know the ending before it happens, it makes it too anti-climatic TBH.

[Judge Hades]

That is why when I write a story I start at the beginning and finish at the end. I also do not use flashbacks. If the flashback was so important then you should have started at that point. Besided the events in a flashback can be inferred in good detail with properly written dialog.
