The Eye of Webbish Bog was supposed to appear at the start of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker to point Kylo Ren in the direction of Darth Vader's Sith wayfinder. While the Sith Lord tasked a group of cultists with protecting that artifact, the Supreme Leader striking them down left this peculiar creature - a spider-like being that is locked in symbiosis with a blind giant - to give him the information he desired.
While their exchange was shot, it's never been shared with fans, but The Eye of Webbish Bog made an unexpected appearance in today's issue of Star Wars: Darth Vader #7.
On the run from the Sith assassin Ochi of Bestoon (whose body and dagger were discovered by Rey in The Rise of Skywalker), Darth Vader meets the future guardian of his Sith wayfinder on Mustafar, and it looks like the plan is to now better explain what we ended up seeing in J.J. Abrams' movie.
That's not a bad thing, of course, as his Episode IX was full of plot holes, unanswered questions, and nonsensical moments. If this comic book series can clear things up, then that's great news for fans! It also happens to be a great read, and is written by Greg Pak with art by Raffaele Ienco.
