I'm not much of a reader of the comics. Who'd you say would win in a dual? Maul or Windu. Both at their best.

Poor writing only makes it even more obvious that it's PIS.
Darth Maul was in a situation where it was virtually impossible for him to lose and Obi Wan was clearly going to die. But wait, Obi Wan NEEDS to live. Therefore, something must be done to have Obi Wan live. Bad writing resulted in a ridiculous way for that to happen lol.

Remeber what Obi said to Anakin in 3rd film? "I have the high ground". I wonder why Anakin never did the same thing as Obi did. BAD WRITING!!

Maul is the only Sith to wear his red shirt on his actual skin.

It's just that Obi-Wan was ready for him, while Maul was caught by surprise because he was expecting Obi-Wan to cooperate and fall quietly to his death. Hence another reason why I think he's pointless. ;D

Can't best Colbert in Light Saber combat though: But lets be fair, look how quickly he took down the Rancor. Too much skill.

Maul should have dominated Obi-Wan by all rights.

High I'm Darth Maul, oh I'm dead now! Guy could of been a great character but they just killed him off.. without even giving him a back story or anything.. 1) Virtually all Sith lack backstories. The history of most of them is unknown. 2) To an extent, Maul does have a backstory. Details of it were revealed in this little thing we like to call the "EU." Maul should have dominated Obi-Wan by all rights. This. Although technically, he did. Maul actually beat Obi-Wan; Obi-Wan won by cheap-shotting him. Also, Maul was dominating Vader, and Vader won through a cheap-shot as well. Maul has a tendency to suffer from terrible losing conditions. He was literally dancing circles around Vader in their duel, and if memory serves, Vader never even landed a hit on him until the end. Vader just killed him by stabbing through himself to get to him... Good story overall, but it raised the number of times Maul lost to character he should rightfully beat. PIS = Maul's worst enemy.

I kind o' feel bad for Maul. I dislike the new ones. However I did like Maul in Phantom Menace. PIS seems to effect him greatly.
