I legit have to question why the others don't just kill Aphra. This has long since passed the point of "more trouble than it's worth".
Henry Anderson
Fucker is probably perfectly fine. After all, we know enough of the torso was carved out like a pumpkin that you could store a small arsenal inside. So there's a sizable cavity which means there would need to be replacement organs. I'm not even sure that really counts as a cyborg anymore so much as a droid with a meat wrap. Sure General Grievous had less meat but he at least still qualifies as a person. He has his brain, some organs left to keep the brain alive, Caysin was blown up and stitched back together. Was there even any brain left to run that monstrosity of a body or is just a processor that thinks it's still, somehow, a man?
Charles Reed
Is there ever any sense in killing the person who signs the checks? They clearly don't know who they're really working for and it's a bit late to cut and run once they were in the belly of the beast.
Austin Richardson
>Was there even any brain left to run that monstrosity of a body or is just a processor that thinks it's still, somehow, a man?
That gets into some heavy AI/sentience/sapience territory that I don't think Star Wars is equipped to handle. We are talking about a galaxy that created an entire category of thinking inorganic beings just for servitude.
Daniel Jackson
Sunk cost. If Aphra dies, they don't get paid.

The stormtroopers look alright, but Ezra looks like shit... more so than usual.
Jordan Kelly
Droids can outgrow their original programming, though, which is why they are supposed to memory wiped.
It raises all kinds of questions. Still my understanding was that the decraniated were created as cheap alternatives to droids. You rip off the top of the person's head, chuck out the brain, and just shove in some cheap shit to run the body I mean potentially the brain stem is still there but you can't get them to operate even on a zombie level with that, right? But if you could interface it to a processor it could pilot the body around. If Caysin Bog is the prototype for them I'm not sure why he's still so ... let's just say cognizant.
Christopher Jones
If he's Evazan's prototype for the Decraniated, it makes sense that he would be more independent. Too independent, and Evazan probably fixed that in the Decraniated. Maybe he figured out a way to bypass whatever restraining locks E. would have put in. It's hard to say without knowing the exact nature of what Evazan was doing. Most of the tech in SW might as well be magic considering how advanced it is.
Jeremiah Evans
What the hell?
Jaxon Long
Where does he put the brain, though? Honestly I figure he just scooped it out, otherwise a little elective lobotomization you could keep most of the person after you just kill the parts of the brain responsible for consciousness, maybe memory, and stick in a droid brain. I guess it's mostly to keep people from recognizing anyone. I mean you could, theoretically, move the brain to another part of the body? I really don't see that, not when for all you need them for you could just stick in a mouse droid's brain to wait tables. Also bacta is expensive, so a brain in a jar shoved up the ass really isn't very practical
Lincoln Russell
>decraniated were created as cheap alternatives to droids
This is the part I don't get. You have an organic body with a droid brain. Do you still have to keep it nourished? Is it still as fragile as a human? Droids don't require feeding, they're tougher than organics, they don't get tired. I think I'm just going to have to chalk this one up to "rule of cool" and not pull too many threads.
Logan Hall
That has got to be the single stupidest motherfucker in the Rebellion. All those X-Wings and surely a staff of trained pilots to instruct the rookies and he jumps in with the entire ship. For a single Imperial gunship that's ridiculous overkill especially when you don't realize where you're moving the ship.
Alas, poor Lucrehulk, you were too precious to survive the CIS and your own introduction arc into the OT era.
Aaron Flores
>fucked up face
>fucked up hand
Ha, is that one of the actual Deathtrooper zombies? Leave it to the Empire to just chuck one in the freezer for safe keeping. Also Hutt clone troopers. That's adorable.
Carter Morgan
>and surely a staff of trained pilots
The previous issue shows Hera running the training sims singlehandedly, so no. The Rebels have always suffered from having more ships than pilots.
Aiden Evans
Better than when the Rebellion sent a Lurehulk and a full compliment of X-Wings against the Death Star in the EU only to get utterly BTFO
Also thanks for the storytime, OP
Juan Brown
She's the Rotation General, meaning the General rotated to that post, and she clearly has a staff. Nothing in that issue suggests she's the only trained pilot on that entire ship and even though she's been using it to remote control the astromechs to pilot ships as needed it's more work than one person could do for a station with over a thousand volunteers. That's ridiculous to think she's doing it solo when not even Solo could do it.
Leo Williams
If you say so. I'm going by what's shown in the comic, and not making assumptions based on "what I think should be done". Obviously there weren't many qualified pilots o, or a squadron would have been scrambled, ya think?
Blake Barnes

Tuff titties.
Landon Baker
>After all, we know enough of the torso was carved out like a pumpkin that you could store a small arsenal inside
He can hold a surprising amount of gear. I like to think the reason he's such a fatass is all the organs are shoved to one side to make room for what's basically a trashcan with a lid.
As for the brain, clearly there's programming that can dictate the poor bastard's actions since that's what Aphra did to him. Still it could be some kind of slave program that's been turned off meaning Caysin is free. Or Evazan fucked up the programming and Aphra "fixed" it.
Cameron Peterson
We're told she's using the droid control system as a helping hand but yeah even with that there is no way any one person could effectively train a thousand recruits, especially since we're told most generals ignore it. She's the first to even use it this way. We're not told that she decided to use this in place of instructors and sent them off to fight in the greater war.
Levi Jackson
>thousand recruits
You're taking the "thousand terrified teenagers" line literally? I doubt there are a thousand beings total on that ship.
Tyler Green
>yeah even with that there is no way any one person could effectively train a thousand recruits
Well, it's a good thing there's only a handful of actual trainees on board, then.
Josiah Martin
Go find another franchise to infect. SW doesn't need the cynicism of bitter and disillusioned neckbeards
Justin Reyes
Oh, so we're playing the game of pretending what they say isn't to be taken seriously. Curious move after this user swears we need to only believe what the comic tells us but it turns out what they claim the comic showed wasn't actually in the comic. The contrarianism Sup Forums is known for at work.
Sebastian Watson
>being this overly literal and not recognizing clear hyperbole on a page
Are you autistic or European?
Blake Murphy
Yep. Didn't you or bother to read the current issue? Allow me to help you: When that trick number a thousand keeps coming up it, and from different people, odds are it's not hyperbole. Yes, even you user
Jayden Adams
>"t-that thousand isn't meant to be taken seriously"
>another page shows you're right, it's actually THOUSANDS
Way to go, user. You'll make a fine Imperial Inspector yet!
Cooper Bell

Gavin Cooper
I like grittiness in Star Wars
Dylan Bell
An entire Lucrehulk maintained and hypespace capable just to train a handful of pilots? Fuck that, they could find a nice hollowed out asteroid and turn it into a base for a mere handful and then use that Lucrehulk as a carrier ship for the goddamn war they're fighting. I realize the Alliance can be a bit goofy at times but I'd like to think even they wouldn't be this poor at resource management.
Elijah Edwards
>An entire Lucrehulk maintained and hypespace capable just to train a handful of pilots?
Makes sense. Large, probably mostly automated, hyperspace capability keeps it mobile in case it's found.
>a nice hollowed out asteroid and turn it into a base
Not as mobile unless you want to strap engines to it. Harder to find especially when you consider most of their efforts are trying to find a replacement for Yavin 4, and they don't have the manpower to hollow one out themselves. Then you have to add all the fighter support capabilities the Lucrehulk already has.
Blake Gutierrez
A base like that can be abandoned. They've done that before, several times. Dantooine. Yavin. Chopper Base. Hoth. The Alliance doesn't need the base to escape when those X-Wings are all hyperspace capable. In Rebels they only had a mere captured Light Carrier and used it as...an actual carrier. Why expect them to dedicate an entire Lucrehulk to "a handful" of trainees, especially when in the main Star Wars comic Leia is thirsting for the Mon Cal's fleet.
Carson Perry
The art seems like something you see in those cash grab tie in books that litter supermarket book shelves for parents to buy their kids.
Austin Wilson
>The Alliance doesn't need the base to escape when those X-Wings are all hyperspace capable.
Talk about throwing away resources. Ships move, planets don't. If you have the capability to run instead of abandoning ship, why would you abandon ship? And yes, I'm well aware the Alliance is hurting for ships.
Jordan Ward
>cash grab tie in books that litter supermarket book shelves for parents to buy their kids.
>Adventures comic targeted at young kids
I think you might be on to something there...
Carter Ross
Who talked about abandoning ship? The contention was finding a small remote place like an asteroid to station a small number of pilots. An already hollow asteroid at that. Assuming it doesn't have its own gravity and atmosphere like Fort Anaxes somehow maintained all you'd need is a pressure door/shield, a life support unit, and gravity generator. Boom, good go to.
The real waste would be using a capital ship for this supposed small number of pilots, which is itself a dubious enough prospect by this point in the discussion.
Matthew Wright
The way I see it, using the Lucrehulk is like pulling an old aircraft carrier out of mothballs. It has it's uses, but you maybe don't want it on front line duty. Even in the prequels I never got the impression they were anything but a mobile command and control station, not a ship of the line.
Thomas Morgan
DON'T PROVOKE IT
Connor Ortiz
Like this guy said, I never saw Lucrehulks as anything more than a command center.
Kayden Gonzalez
No offense, user, but I gotta call bullshit on that. The Profundity was a gdamn administration tower launched into space and give a retrofit into a serviceable combat vessel. An already military grade vessel would be far easy to press back into service, especially when the one used just at Naboo had armor those fighters couldn't pierce. The same fighters used by Leia and Poe's mom years later to school a shit load of TIEs, and those ships were older than the Clone War itself. Old doesn't mean inferior.
Henry King
Oh shit a ball
Mason Clark
And you see no benefit in having a mobile command center in war? What the hell is Sup Forums smoking today, I've got to get me some of this.
