Darth Vader Vs. Darth Maul

I don't know if this has been done somewhere already, probably, but whatever.




Vs.



Setting - Inside a Star Destroyer, somewhere near the outside where there are windows and stuff, in space of course. Actually, wherever Palpatine hangs out, because he's watching this...because he likes to watch.

Weapons:

Vader - Lightsabre
Maul - Dual Lightsabre staff thingy

Battle to the death.

I'd guess Palpatine likes to trade up in apprentices, so I kind of ASSUME Vader would win this.

This HAS happened multiple times in comics, I think.

Pretty much this:

That's SOOO unrealistic!

No WAY would any kid ever leave that cool Vader mask behind.

I don't like any of the material Maul has been in, and I think Vader is certainly the better character, but I think Maul has potential in him to be an interesting character, and I'd like to see him have the Morrison treatment and actually get a good story.

Also, I like Maul's design better than Vader's.

I'd say Maul (Pre "Death") of course.
He has more mobility I'd think. Vader's a robot really, so he and his stiff self I can see losing that battle. His force powers may give him an edge though... If it was straight up Anakin, there'd be no contest.
And Maul has the edge in looks. So....
2>1 Maul wins :3

Maul's a great fighter. Anakin was, pre-lava fight, but afterwards was never shown to be very good. Of course, that has more to do with Lucas's opinion on the fight scenes, but we can't take that into account.

Vader wins. He will always win in comparison to Maul. This isn't even a contest.

Darth Maul had a screen time of approximately fifteen minutes in EPISODE I, but his fame is hardly over. Maul has, by far, been the character most requested by our readers to further explore. How to do it? Easy. Have him knuckle up against Darth Vader!

I can't quite put into words what that sentence did to me, but it is a perfect example of why there has never been a good Star Wars comic book.

I think that's a subjective statement, but to each their own.

Darth Maul FTW. That guy just won't die... I think he's been killed, what, three times now and none of them have stuck.
