Dark Horse says the story sends Grievous to the jungle planet Katou during the <strong>Clone Wars<\/strong> on a conquest mission. Then Count Dooku\u2019s assignment curdles into a lethal hunt, with Jedi Knight Cardiff Baye and a squad of clone troopers closing in. It sounds like more than a brief battlefield appearance, with the story digging into how Grievous thinks and what drives him.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Disney+ series doesn\u2019t literally resurrect Grievous, but the resemblance is hard to miss. General Nawaam, a Force-sensitive human leading an anti-Jedi campaign, carries part of that same menace. So does Gennoh, who replaces more and more of his body with <strong>cybernetics<\/strong>. They aren\u2019t direct copies, but the Grievous echoes are obvious.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019ve kept up with Grievous as the lightsaber-collecting Jedi hunter, this new attention on him is probably worth a look.
