Featured Segment
Deadliest Character: Following our Star Wars: The Last Jedi special, we decided that we would love to see a fight between Darth Maul and Kylo Ren. Does Ren’s Lightsaber nubs top Maul’s double bladed lightsaber? Does it matter that Darth Maul died once (or did he…) fighting two Jedi while Kylo still fights on? John and Mark debate and discuss who they’d put their money on. Vote below!
