Star Wars Rebels: Has Kotor 2 Revealed the Identity of Ezra's Mystery Sith?
The recent finale of Star Wars Rebels had everything. Crazy former Sith? Check. Blinded master? Check. Temples and an epic duel between Ahsoka and Darth Vader? Triple check. But a dominant theme throughout the episode was the Sith holocron, an ancient artifact used to keep the knowledge and sometimes even the spirits of Sith. At the very end of the episode, Ezra unlocks the holocron and goes all Sith evil eyes on us, but we never get to know whose holocron it is. But I believe that Knights of the Old Republic 2 the Sith Lords unveiled the true identity of the mystery Sith long ago. Here is my evidence for this fan theory and be advised, at present it's pure conjecture.

5 Theories on Who Snoke Is and Where He Came From
Hello Star Wars fans. With the end of the cinema screening of the Rogue One movie, many fans are now looking towards the The Last Jedi and as the release date draws ever so near, one question continues to plague everyone's minds and that is "Who is Snoke?" Theories have ranged from Darth Plagueis to the Sith Emperor Vitiate but today let's discuss the most prominent five on the Internet. As the theory that he is a new character is not something that can be discussed further due to it being self-explanatory, it won't come up. I'm also not discussing the Mace Windu one because it has been clarified to be nonsense. But yes, there are high indications of the new character thing from the official production people so take all this with a grain of salt...

In The Shadow Of The Force: How The Jedi Almost Appeared In 'Rogue One'
The first-ever Star Wars spinoff, Rogue One, is a standalone movie that — uniquely — features not even a trace of the Jedi! There are no lightsaber duels and, with the exception of Darth Vader's rampage at the end of the film, you don't see explicit Force-usage, and the idea of the Light Side and the Dark Side isn't even touched upon.

Legendary Author Timothy Zahn Is Returning To The 'Star Wars' Canon!
When George Lucas ended the Original Trilogy with Return of the Jedi in 1983, interest in Star Wars began to wane.

Many believe that the success of Heir to the Empire - which kicked off a trilogy of novels - caught George Lucas's eye, and inspired him to write the prequels.

Star Wars: Darth Vader #2 What Is the Barash Vow?
Find the write up on the previous issue of Star Wars: Darth Vaderhere. Charles Soule knows how to stretch out a story. The second issue of Star Wars’ new Darth Vader comic that begins just after Anakin turns on Obi-Wan and is outfitted with a cybernetic body. The first issue was the epilogue of Episode 3 where we learned why and how a Sith lightsaber glows red. This issue’s portion of the first arc is just Vader flying and killing Empire soldiers for no reason searching for a certain type of Jedi and then saying he was going to go get them. Not very impressive.

Star Wars: Captain Phasma #1 Can You Tell a Great Side Story With a Minor Character?
The Lucasfilm Story Group has to deal with a lot of moving parts. There are a lot of characters, time periods, and mediums to keep in a tight canon. And no single flowing canon spans the mediums that Star Wars does, comics, books, films, television are all the same world not just based on the same universe like say Marvel comics and the Marvel cinematic universe.
