Captain Aldeggon said:I go with Mara Jade too. As for Dark Luke, that's one concept that I can never reconcile with the canon o the Saga. Luke made his choice in the Death Star and made his stand for good. From that point on, Luke had defeated the temptation of the Dark Side. Having him go bad negates the whole impact of that DSII confrontation, and misses the entire point of Luke's integrity, which is the most important element of his character--and the one that saved Anakin. I like a lot of stuff from the EU--but that's one thing which will never be a part of the saga for me.
Of course if you like it, I'm not one to tell you what to think.![]()
You see I always justified it by thinking that as he attacked Vader out of fear and anger once he had mentioned Leia and his sheer rage that followed that this was enough to start him on his way.
Once you start down the dark path forever will it dominate your destiny.
Plus, Balance was brought to the force and I think that Luke needs the darkness just as he needs the light.
A nice character arc.
