Did they make that into a graphic novel or series of them?
I’m sure I had these when I was in my teens. All I can remember is palpatine had thousands of clones of himself in stasis and he could transfer to one and often had to as the use of the dark side withers a body really quickly.
I could be completely misremembering that. But it was a graphic novel format
They did. And you are totally misremembering what it was about. You’re thinking of Dark Empire.

I mean it doesn’t make that edit more egregious to know it’s Hayden in there.

No it doesn’t. Not at all. Do you just want him to refilm ALL of the Vader scenes? It’s fucking stupid. What’s even the point?

Never understood the hate for Hayden. I can see not wanting reedits of old movies, but it’s the same comments when there is talk of using Hayden in the ST.

I have no problem with Heyden. I have a problem with taking out David Prowse/ Sebastian Shaw and replacing them with him. Especially as a force ghost. There’s no good reason for it.

So, in the podcast, when he talks about Heyden reshooting that scene, he mentions a couple of times that he put that in the Making of ... Sith book. I looked it up. He DOES mention the reshot Emperor in that scene but nowhere is it mentioned Heyden is there as Vader.
