When 2 kids get lost at the grocery store because both their parents forgot them.

This has the same vibe as “Never thought I’d die fighting side by side with an elf”

If at least one single Clone managed to find peace after 2 galactic wars, then it was all worth it.

Rebel: Hey, you ever wonder why we’re here? Scout Trooper: It’s one of life’s great mysteries, isn’t it?

I love the trope of two abandoned soldiers fighting until they both get tired, then talking things out. Never gets old.

Ewok KUSH. The Ewoks got the hookup.

Holy shit this was the FIRST legends story i ever read when i was a kid.

This story actually made me smile, it's just very wholesome! Neither of the main characters get brutally killed, it's not horribly tragic, it's just a nice, happy ending. We don't see enough of those

Not even the hardiest of men can resist a puff of that sweet ewok kush.

Honestly i live for short side stories like this one. It makes the star wars galaxy feel so wide and connected while also feeling like its a story about multiple people in far off places and not just centered around the main cast group. We get to see the stories most dont and the random lovable characters interacting in them

I love the look of both characters the scout trooper being traditional military clean shaven and the Rebel being a full blown hippie. It's I believe a reflection of the Vietnam war.

This reminds me of that real life story when a lost Japanese soldier continued to fight World War II for three decades after it ended.

45 minutes of brawling, then they just sit down and share a drink together. Reminds me of Samurai Jack and The Scotsman! 😂

I can't get enough of the aesthetic of former clones/imperials turning walkers into homes and sticking it out on the Star Wars frontier

“Dad, look! It’s the Good Kush!” “This is the Dollar Store. How good could it be?”

Got to love it when your speeder's battery is dead, but can still float a foot off the ground

I like this one! My husband is a veteran and took him sometime to re-adjust to civilian life and he had an internal struggle that made him become very distant but when our child were born he came back to his old self and holding our first born son made him happy again and my made him focus on living and being the best father and husband he could be. His father a Vietnam veteran had the same issues but i guess my husband learned a lot from his father. I'm glad my husband left his conflicts back in central Africa he is a man who saw life in black in white after his service now everything is vibrant colors and i want to cry when he smiles and holds us. I know my husband couldn't connect with the people he fought against. But at least he's a better man back in civilian world and amongst me and our family.

This is the beauty of the good old SW legends

Endor is one of my favorite places. The scenery from the movie absolutely touched my heart. The forest city, elevated above the floor, the views… 🥴 awww yeah….

For some reason, stories about dire enemies being forced to cooperate and eventually growing to appreciate eachother are always interesting to me. I know it's not the most original idea for a story, it's a bit of a cliche actually, but there's so much potential for character development and it's a good way to discuss the morals of each side.

at the end of WW2 in Germany, the two armies traded hat pins. I had one from Germans from my grandfather . My parents probably threw it away. These things were important to me, my parents weren't nostalgic, and threw away everythign WW2 that belonged to my grandfather. People are so filled with hate. Don't realize these were soldiers ordered to kill each other. when it ended, they were relieved.

You know I know Daala had a bad track record and all… but that image of her gassing all the warlords with that stone cold stare and stance… that does something for me.

Imagine a tv series centered around just these two, and their struggle to escape endor together. Omg, I just wish we could have good Star Wars again.

2:18 That’s Ben Burtt . The sound designer for Star Wars. He was the guy who used the Wilhelm scream and changed culture and yet another way. When he goes over that railing he actually does an impression of the Wilhelm scream.

As an old Star Wars fan and veteran, this made me smile. These are the stories that made Star Wars real.

Was about to say "Good thing that Scout Trooper isn't a f*cking Fett clone.." EDIT: Damn 100 likes for the first time in 7 years. Thanks everyone out there😊

I know you don't upload as much anymore but an upload on my birthday is such a great present! I've gone through different channels but this was the first of many starwars lore channels i subbed to way back when you were known as 'FactFree' and also had another guy covering while you were in education, I've always come back to here and my day lights up when you upload and I know you're still going even though starwars isnt in the best place right now (at least for me).

"that ewok kush" lmaoo i busted out laughing as I was hitting my dab

The clone deserves a name like grove, or something.

Heroes on both sides, one of the main themes of star wars that made it great!

Aaah. It all makes sense now. That's why Palpatine chose Endor as a base to rebuild the Death Star. The wrinkly old bastard secretly wanted to steal the Ewok's good kush!!! That monster!! Rebuilding the Death Star was, partly, just a cover so Palpatine could steal the Ewok kush!!!

That's the dream right there. Survive the War, Let everyone think you're dead, restart your stress-free life in a remote fishing village in some obscure place.

Really nice to see both soldiers finding their own peace and coming together instead of fighting one another after both were abandoned. Plus both got to try some of that Ewok kush. No need to fight when the nature of Endor can help one find peace, and some good kush to enjoy.

2:12 He said 'finest legions' I am pretty sure, as in plural. He was probably referring to the 501st, because a lot Blizzard Force had been deployed on the planet. Although by this point even the 501st had a lot of non-clones due to the destruction of the Death Star. However, the 501st narrator did note in some cut dialogue that he had underestimated non-clone stormtroopers and that they proved to be extremely effective as well, thus I suppose the 501st was still an extremely powerful unit

The Pre Disney Expanded Universe has some interesting stories that we'll never get into, I had to explain to my friend about how the Empire had 25,000 Star Destroyers why they scrapped the Venator after the Clone Wars, and why Star Wars has 2 timelines.

I really love small stories like these, they feel like they have a soul inside of them, unlike those sequel movies, no heart or soul in those

new lore dropped lets gooooo

Reminds of Japanese unit after WWII. They thought they were still at war even though they did not have direct communication with their superiors. Beliving the war was still going on, the soldiers had to be told by a Japanese representative that the war was over.

really liked this story it's depressing but enjoyable to see the Scout trooper change

Gotta love the small forest people and their amazing kush

I wanna say as someone who’s done grappling, 45 minutes of that would be agony and no wonder why they’d call a truce, those two guys are tough

And this is why Legends is so favored by the actual Star Wars fandom😁

Adding "Smoke Ewok Kush" to my bucket list

It's been so long since I've been able to see your videos, and thank goodness I got to see a new one. I love your channel, especially your legends content, thank you for everything you do.

Welcome to the Expanded Universe, home of the legendary Luke Skywalker, husband, father, and Grand Master of the New Jedi Order. We also have Zeltrons.

I absolutely LOVED this Dark Horse comic. Such a banger from Republic Commandos, to a mystery Jedi story, then this absolute banger if a closer. It was so good.

"Both men got into a brawl lasting forty-five minutes before getting tired." Shit people who've never been in a fistfight say.

The facial expressions in the art are really good!

They would have made good penpals with that TIE pilot stranded on Yavin IV. Figured the scout trooper was a Jango Fett clone, but I must say, was he a part of the 501st Legion of Battlefront II 2005 fame? Would explain a whole lotta things. Not sure about the Rebel, but the clone will end up lucky provided he stays. Endor will stay unscathed from war for decades to come, and not even the Yuuzhan Vong War scarred it for good reason.

I remember this comic fondly, buying it brand new when it fist came out. I treasure all of my Tales collections. Legends is the true SW, I don't care what anyone says.

You gotta make more of these.. the synthesis of the comic.. the emotions.. the rich universe.. really good stuff here Lore Master.. hoping for more

*If only Disney could be this creative*

This is still canon. Don't pay attention to what disney says.

The sad thing is there are actual cases of soldiers being left behind after wars, Hiroo Onoda was a Japanese soldier in the Philippines during World War Two, he received orders not to surrender or commit suicide. Japan surrendered in August of 1945 and it wasn’t until October of that year that him and his companions discovered a leaflet announcing that Japan had surrendered, they believed it to be Allied propaganda and ignored it. Of his three companions one surrendered to Filipino forces in 1950, one was killed by local police in 1954, and the last was killed in 1972. During all those years they continued to fight with Guerrilla tactics believing the war was ongoing. In 1974 he met a Japanese explorer who became friendly with him, explained what had happened, but Onoda explained he would not surrender until he was relieved of duty by a superior officer. The explorer returned to Japan, went to the government and explained the situation, the Japanese government then located Onoda’s former commander, and he went to Japan and relieved him of his duties. Onoda then surrendered to the Philippine government in March of 1974, turning over his sword, his rifle, ammunition, grenades and dagger to the Philippine President.

Man, that Ewok kush must be good

How it feels to be the last survivor in ewok hunt.

The pic of a clone smoking ewok kush on an ATST goes hard as fuck ngl

Best star wars story. I want me some of that Ewok OG.

2:01 he never say he's a clone. He's just saying that he folllow orders like a soldier who came from a tyranic empire.

VirginTroopers: Empire rations ChadClone: *IM ON THAT GOOD KUSH AND ALCOHOL 🗣️🔥*

That Ewok Kush had that clone chilling after going through 2 galactic wars, and it being the only thing he’d known

Being a hunter that can provide all his needs and protector of the native Ewoks to use his elite skills positively, not a bad retirement for a clone trooper. That sweet kush only sweetens the deal.

He might not have been a Fett clone specifically. In Legends, the Empire cloned different templates along with recruiting born humans.

I am thinking the clone scout trooper is a surviving bitty cadet who got shipped off similar to what happened to Mox, Stak, and Deke. Unlike them, this guy got sent to a training base and curculate into trooper training.

“Enemy Mine” vibes. If you never watched it, it’s a PHENOMENAL psychological alien film from the 80s with Dennis Quade.

Damn this is just hella sad on both empire and rebellion ends. Yet it’s still nice how they just decide to make a truce since they both get left behind

Smoking that Destroyed Empire Pack

I love these old EU stories. So simple and humble.

This was my favorite Star Wars: Legends comic. Thanks for the flashback to my childhood!

3:13 That looks like a phonk walk.

I guess that’s what really difference between a Rebel and a Clone Trooper, or any other Imperial Fanatic. They do have an actual “SOCIETY” to go back to, and actually know how to enjoy the simple pleasures of life.

Very interesting Story. I love when people learn to get over their indoctrination. I once knew an old man that was in the Waffen SS. He joined as an 18 year old Boy in 1940 and fought right until the end, killing many people and taking part in many horrible crimes probably. After the war he was in a british prison camp and a year later they kicked him out, and he was alone on the street without money, in a different part of germany were he had no friends and no family. So he lived a long time from foraging and fishing and begging, sometimes helping out on Farmwork for very little money. In these times he became friends with different stray cats, and started feeding them and taking care for them. In the village he was in, he was soon known as "the Cat man" and people donated to him clothes and money and food for him and the cats. Then someone gave him money for a ticket and he went home, taking his 5 cats with him. In the years after that he became a peaceful friendly man and build a cat shelter for stray cats on the property of his dead father, wich he inherited. In the 1980s he housed more than a hundred cats there, paying the vets bill, feeding them and saving many of their lives. In 2007 when i met him, he was already very old but still took care of cats, and also two dogs wich he found somewere. Moral of story is that political indoctrination and militaric drill often overshadow the true personality of a man, and as soon as they come to a different environment without all the propaganda, they might start thinking and reflecting and become themselfes again. Just like that Scout trooper in the video. Even if people did evil things and fought for the wrong side, everyone deserves a second chance in life !

This and Apocalypse Endor are two of my favorite comic short stories.

Clones are always so wholesome

This is the kind of story that makes Star Wars so raw. There doesn't hafta be a big conflict in the force and the interstellar war can be over: The people have to keep living in the world the movies created and that is dramatic and incredible.

That ewok kush

Clones we're that unusual in the EU, the Empire couldnt keep up with recruitment numbers so started recruiting birth born into the ranks which was seen as diluting the quality of the Storm Troopers, ontop of that as per Battlefront 2, the Kaminion's tried to rebel with a batch of specially made clones so after that thr Empire moved to multipule templates as well as Jango's to prevent 1 type being tampted with or altered, the lead to most every unit in the Empire being a mix of regular humans as well as different clone types with a few execeptions, most famously the 501's 'Vaders Fist' which stayed 100" Fett clones due to Vaders service with them in the clone wars and was thus convinced of their superior abilties. Then Disney got hold of all that intresting lore and replaced it with, er clones got retired after the Clone Wars and replaced with a birth born recruited army cause the clones showed too much independence (the troops manufactured for pupose, genetically designed for loyalty with a stupid chip in their head to ensure it curtsy of Dave were too independent.) Oh and we blew up all the cities of Kaminio cause we heard you guys really liked that bit from Battlefront 2 and had to be sure to erase it.

I remember having this comic as a kid.

I love storys like this , not all combatants have to be evil

It's a good thing they came cross that Imperial II-Class star destroyer, especially for the clone if the reactor was still intact, being able to keep his AT-ST charged as he lived off the lands of Endor.

I had this comic years ago, super pleased to see a video about it. I also had a clone wars one about a team of troopers(maybe commandos) whos ship crashed on a planet and they were being pursued by droids, i cannot remember much more but would love to read it again.

Btw The Stormtroopers stranded on Endor were either hunted down by Ewoks or escaped with the remaining empire. Thanks to Battlefront 2

ngl living as a nomad hunter on Endor as friends with the ewoks sounds chill asf

loved this comic since i was a kid

Always liked this one Rebel gets to go home to a new republic and the clone finds his home and inner peace on Endor Simple and sweet

Ya know. A miniseries of this i would watch.

it‘s so nice to come back to this channels after years and still hear the same music❤️

Holy hutt! I remember reading this as a kid lol

Man, this story really made me happy, I had already read this obscure story from the "Star Wars Tales" series where there are a lot of bizarre stories and some good stories, and this story really and he had a smile on his face, because it's not very common in Star Wars where two soldiers put their differences aside and decide to help each other, so that in the end the two become friends where one or the other doesn't will betray with a stab in the back, I'm happy that this obscure story is gaining recognition

Yoooo this was my favorite Star Wars comic when I was younger!

I am glad you still are occasionally making Star Wars legends videos. Keep up the great work Lore Master!

Yee that fire ewok Kush boi!

Reminds me of the story of Marcus and the BoS Knight. Nice little throwback

They fought 45 minutes hand to hand and they still have their eyes and fingers lol

Such a pretty good story focusing on two warriors, each fighting on the opposite side, finding peace and common ground with one another. It reminds me of a Star Wars fan film called After Endor, which follows a somewhat similar premise and I highly recommend you check it out if you haven't already.

That Ewok-Zaza go crazy 🤤

Proves that no matter the side they still have their humanity.

THIS is what i love abt star wars all these different ppl and stories its all just amazing

I remember reading this as a kid, it sparked the imagination and stuck with me for some reason

I love videos like this that go over stories from the comics!
