instaling Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

This is very much in line with an old-school Star Wars comic book called Dark Empire, in which the Emperor does the very same. The Emperor seems to have not only resurrected himself, but also to have cloned Supreme Leader Snoke (Andy Serkis), the primary villain from the previous two films. The Emperor’s rebirth, cloning, his evil message, and the Sith Fleet, are all reminiscent of a 1991-1992 Star Wars comic-book series called Dark Empire. Funnily enough, both Ben Solo and Rey seem to have learned this power on their own?

When Kylo Ren discovers the Emperor on the planet of Exegol, the reborn Palpatine says, “The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.” This is word-for-word what Palpatine said to Anakin Skywalker in Revenge of the Sith, when he’s dangling the promise of death-stopping powers. Palpatine quotes himself from Revenge of the Sith. That film featured Palpatine teasing Anakin Skywalker with the possibility of immortality.

At the beginning of the film, the opening text crawl starts with the words “The dead speak!” An exclamation point has only appeared in one other opening text crawl: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith.
