If you've been watching the Book of Boba Fett, you know all about the Gladiator Warrior known as Black Krrsantan. Or do you? The fans have assumed his backstory given in the comics is canon to Book of Boba Fett. But I am not convinced. In the comics, not only does Boba Fett know who Krrsantan is, he goes on a mission with him for Vader. Cut to Book of Boba Fett, and he doesn't even recognize him. Doesn't say anything like "It's been a awhile", or "Long time no see". Nothing of the sort. All we know is Boba is aware of the Gladiator Wookies. But that doesnt confirm his non canon past with Krrsantan.

I'm starting to become frustrated with Disney, and Lucasfilm in regards to their storytelling methods, and what is considered canon. As when Disney purchased Lucasfilm back in 2012, they told the world everything moving forward ie: games, comics, books, tv series, and movies were all valid, and "canon". To the main Star Wars story. Not so much these days. What kind of message does this send the fanbase? These people invest time, and money thinking these stories are all interconnected when in reality all it takes is a writers room, and a director to veto that storytelling element. Do these writers/directors think their stories are better than the comics? Why do they undervalue what's already been established? Why would they repurpose a character that already has the groundwork layed out? That's like the equivalent of bringing in Ahsoka, and saying The Clone Wars Tv Series didnt happen. I for one will not be investing anymore time reading the books, or comics moving forward. As in the end they arent relevant. At least that's the message Disney/Lucasfilm is sending the world.
Are you being serious?
