One of Dave Filoni’s favorite things to do in his Star Wars projects is making subtle hints and references to the expanded universe, whether by throwing in a nod to a Legends character or bringing up a storyline from one of the many Star Wars games, books and comics.With The Bad Batch’s third season now releasing, Doctor Hemlock’s original character has gotten significantly more screen time within the series as Filoni builds him up as the next major antagonist succeeding Admiral Rampart and Crosshair. However, Hemlock’s increased screen time has brought to light an uncanny case of similarities between him and another Imperial Scientist from the canon Darth Vader comics published by Marvel in 2015.Cylo created such marvels as sentient whale-ships, cybernetics that mimicked force powers and even the ability to link his brain to a neuro-network so that whenever Cylo is killed, his mind enters one of the many clone bodies he has cultivated in case of emergencies. Cylo was so adept in blurring the mechanical with the biological that he believed he could make the Force itself obsolete. Even a Sith Lord like Emperor Palpatine could not help but be impressed by Cylo’s work, so much so that in Darth Vader #6, Palpatine proposed that some of the doctor’s creations could succeed Darth Vader as his apprentice.
