Qymaen jai Sheelal –
deadly Kaleesh warrior,
killer of Yam’rii.
Kaleesh warrior
turned into cyborg monster:
General Grievous.
Cybernetic dude.
One arm, two arm, three arm, four.
And some cool legs, too.
Fierce Separatist,
commanding the droid army…
…and the droid navy.
Death and destruction,
killing all of the Jedi.
Grievous’ purpose.
Grievous is his name.
Killing Jedi is his game.
What a nifty rhyme!

Malevolent ship,
reaping havoc on Clone troops.
Can Grievous be stopped?
I have to be frank:
it’s funny when Grievous just
ignores Count Dooku.
Falleen victory,
but Bothawui invasion
halted by Sky Guy.

Tano fights Grievous
in the sky of Ruusan’s moon.
A rookie mistake.
In Grievous’ lair,
a young Jedi Knight will die
but Fisto escapes.
Master Koth captured.
Grievous tortures the Jedi
for some amusement.
On Saleucami
Kenobi pursues Grievous
but it’s all for not.

Tarpal’s sacrifice.
Grievous captured by Gungans,
exchanged for Ani.
“Wipe the witches out”
Dooku commands of Grievous.
Massacred ‘Sisters.
The planet Florrum.
Hondo’s gang is outgunned by
Grievous’ droid troops.
Battle of Zanbar:
a Grievous led army fights
Maul’s Mando soldiers.
Dooku’s bodyguard
at humanitarian
event on Raxus.
Grievous fights Quinlan.
Quinlan sort of beats Grievous.
It’s temporary.
Invisible Hand,
Grievous’ flagship during
Coruscant battle.
Polyphonic piece.
The “General Grievous” theme.
Revenge of the Sith.

Grievous meets Sky Guy.
The two trade inane insults.
A brief encounter.
Tracked to Utapau,
Grievous is confronted by
Master Kenobi.
“Trained in Jedi arts,”
the cyborg tells Obi-Wan.
What a weird statement…

Find someone who will
look at you the way Grievous
looks at Kenobi.
Grievous flees the scene
and is pursued once again.
Ugh, how typical.
Seriously though,
have you noticed that Grievous
flees battles a lot?
Bursting into flames,
his heart shot by Kenobi.
So uncivilized.
Commander Karbin,
cybernetic Mon Cala.
He is no Grievous.
Here is a fun fact:
Mister Bones has some Grievous
programming in him.
Another fun fact:
I don’t have any Grievous
programming in me.

Hold up for a sec!
Grievous was a cyborg but
couldn’t get new lungs!?!?!
Are we surprised, though?
I mean, Padmé thought she was
having one baby.
Honestly, med tech
in Star Wars is advanced but
weirdly lacking, too.

Grievous needs Albuterol.
Get his inhaler.
