From ComingSoon.net ...

Besides "The Phantom Menace" [in 3D] Darth Maul will
also be back this spring in "Star Wars: The Clone
Wars." Maul was believed killed by Jedi Knight Obi-Wan
Kenobi at the end of "Episode I." In the "Star Wars"
universe, however, one must never underestimate the
power of the dark side!

You can watch a "Return of Darth Maul Sizzle Reel" by

Stupidest thing I've ever seen. Why Darth Maul? Why not another sith
from the same species? There is a jedi master in the intro cinematic
of Old Republic that seems to be from the same species - but not
painted black and red.

There are only one or two ways they can bring back the character
(excluding silly "soap opera" style ones), but probably the most sensible
would simply to be in flashbacks to an earlier timeframe.

Unfortunately I haven't seen most of the episodes, but I think I saw part
of one episode where there was another of the same species (Maul's
brother?), so it could well be connected to that in some way.

Look-and-act-alikes are unpopular. Returns from the dead are stupid.

Best just leave it alone.

But your quotes says the exact opposite!

"Maul was believed killed by Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi at the end
of "Episode I." In the "Star Wars" universe, however, one must
never underestimate the power of the dark side!"

Wtf? The dark side of the force can stitch together the lower part of
your body with the upper? He doesn't exactly seem to be in a Darth
Vader bio-suit in the images linked, either.

True, although I'm not sure either of those images actually come from the
animated series - the first one might, but the second one doesn't look
"puppet" enough for the style of the show's animation models.

Of course, maybe Darth Maul becomes one with the Force like Qui-Gon,
Obi-Wan, Yoda and Anakin do. Afterall, according to Palpatine his Master
was trying to defeat death itself.

Hmm, maybe. Either way, it's stupid :)

Yeah, that wouldn't make it less sucky :-D

Another option: the new Darth Maul is a clone of the old one before
Obi-Wan halved him. (A clone of the Emperor did turn up in some of the EU
novels.)

OR, maybe that species is like some lizards - chop the "tail" off and they
grow another.

OR, maybe Maul is like a chicken - chop his head off and he still runs
around for ages (supposedly there was a chicken that lived for years after
it's head was cut off, and it even has a website somewhere).
