Hera Syndulla Pulls Focus In A Bad Batch Origin Episode
Ever since Disney took over the Star Wars franchise, they’ve been trying to run a tight ship. It’s not just axing most of the Expanded Universe. They’re trying to make sure that all Star Wars content is connected to each other in some way. As someone who was a fan of the EU, this strategy seems like a double-edged sword.

Instead, it focuses on the origins of a future rebel leader, Hera Syndulla.
