Episode 074 - Character Spotlight: General Grievous - Cyborg, General, and Psychopath

August 04, 2024 • Connor and Alex • Season 3 • Episode 22

In our continuing series of character spotlights highlighting interesting characters from the Star Wars Universe and analyzing both their in-universe traits and how they function as a character in the greater narrative, this episode dives into the half-life of General Grievous, supreme military commander of the armed forces of the Confederacy of Independent Systems during The Clone Wars. A Kaleesh warlord who had replaced most of his body with droid parts and cybernetics, Grievous twirls his metaphorical mustache from his Clone Wars inception to his defeat at the hands of Obi-Wan Kenobi.

This episode mentions content from, and may contain spoilers for: Episodes 1 through 9, The Clone Wars, Clone Wars (Legends microseries), Age of the Republic: Villains, Tales of the Empire, Dark Legends, Doctor Aphra, The Aftermath Trilogy, Poe Dameron (comic), Darth Vader (2015 comic), and The Last Shot.
