Let's talk about the life of Zabrak Jedi Master Eeth Koth, who only really appeared in one of the films, but whose story was fleshed out in The Clone Wars and recently the Darth Vader comic series.

I'm a gonna die if you don't do Ima-Gun Di. lol

[LunaticReason]

I read the issue where Koth dies but I am a little unclear about what happened to his baby. We see Vader holding the Zabrack baby and using his Jedi mind trick to silence it and later levitating the body in his hands and passing the child over to some droids to examine. I am unclear as to whether the baby is alive or dead, can someone clarify? Either way that is pretty grim but I'd be interested in knowing what was the outcome of the baby.

[CaptainM]

I think we actually see his gunship shot down in attack of the clones, from Yoda and Mace Windu’s gunship, right before Windu tells the pilot to land in that assembly area.

[mattboesch]

i wanna know what the hell he did that caused him to get kicked out of the Jedi Order.

[Daniel.RF.Davidson]

LoL... a FALLEN JEDI who thrives to become a war lord leader of Tusken Raiders at Tatooine... This is some GOLD writing right there! Can't wait for a movie about this guy.

[MegaGoddo]

I got really confused I thought he was killed by the emperor in Star Wars episode 3 cause the character who was killed looks a lot like him

[mattmiracle]

I just saw the episode of the Clone Wars last night where Master Koth was tortured by Grevious.

[darylsdesigns]

I’ve always wondered what happened to Eeth Koth

[BenBootKHTwo]

Another excuse to listen yet again to my favorite Legends book Kenobi. Its actually the only one I still own wishing it could be the base for a Kenobi movie *sigh*

[purplehawk]

Finally a good conclusion to eeth koth his fate was unknown for a long time

[pout]

with disney slowly re-canonising stuff from caravan of courage, what do you think could be the next thing?

so far, we've had:

-The gorax's cave (slightly changed)

-the spider from the gorax's cave

-wisties

-The Gorax

Hi great video and do people in the star wars galaxy want the first order to take over the galaxy?

[GAdmThrawn]

I really don't like this latest issue in the _Darth_ _Vader_ comics. Whoever wrote it didn't think too deeply on Jedi traditions, lore, and what it means to be a Jedi Council Master. To be a Jedi Master means not just to have a lot of power or skill in the Force or lightsaber, but to have knowledge, understanding, and wisdom in the Force and the teachings of the Jedi. They are essentially role models for all Jedi to follow. It's the same problem that I have with Quinlan Vos in _Dark_ _Disciple_ . I don't believe that any Jedi Master regardless if they're on the Council or not would so easily abandon their teachings. It's been, what? Less than a year since Order 66? Padawans and younger Knights, I can understand as they're still tied to the material world and have much to learn. I think that Eeth Koth should've joined up with Jocasta Nu and helped her to set up her hidden Jedi enclave and continued her work to train the next generation of new Jedi until it became too difficult to do so with the Empire and Inquisitors searching for the remaining Jedi. He would then travel to Irodonia to blend in and hide amongst his people with all of this taking a couple of years.

If they had chosen any other Jedi Knight or even a Padawan, I would've been fine with it. They could've taken someone from the list that was seen in an earlier issue. Would that've been too hard?

[TG-ytcv]

Can you make a legends video about him?

[ANT_chad]

Horn Company is my favorite ever! I made 4 custom Lego figures for that company. Somehow I don't have Eeth Koth in Lego form though...

[scinnyc]

Eeth Koth wasn't killed 5 years after the Empire was established. It was more like a year and a half at the most.

[siegebrickstudios]

Can you do a video on every known imperial defector in both canon and legends?

[KamoseMills]

I love the DV comic, parts of canon, and all of legends but examples like this sadden and give me no hope of “I won’t be the last Jedi.”

Say what you will about Legends but at least the Jedi were restored and therefore the death of purge survivors wasn’t as defeating.

[jaimengrove]

I would like to see some of the more obscure Jedi council members next

[braxtonklindt]

I like when he was in the phantom menace attack of the clones the clone wars series
