Continuity
Although the 2001 young reader novel Jedi Quest: Path to Truth depicts Rashtah with a scar running through his eye and wearing an eye patch,[4] in the comic series he is depicted with both eyes intact.[5][6][7]
Another contradicting detail is the Colicoid diplomatic ship, which is depicted in the comics as a standard Consular-class cruiser,[8][6] yet in Path to Truth is stated to be a typical Colicoid-designed starship.[4]
At the end of the last issue of the series, when Palpatine's transport arrives on Nar Shaddaa, Siri Tachi is still in her "Zora" outfit along with the facial markings and the[7] greased[4] hair,[7] although in the same scene depicted in Path to Truth she wears a simple tunic instead and has her face and hair cleaned.[4]
