I believe they give him droid legs after. My memory is a bit fuzzy.

Darth Maul or Boba Fett?

It kind of pains me to see statements like these, especially when these "cartoons" generally do a better job in storytelling and character development than the actual movies themselves.
They do a better job than the prequels im sure...but thats a pretty low bar.
I don't like Episode 1 or 2 and I still think Darth Maul or even Jango Fett are improvements over Boba Fett who never really did anything to earn his popularity.
Both Clone Wars TV series are better than New Hope and Return of the Jedi. Most people don't realize how much corny dialogue is in the original films.
Maul was one of the coolest characters to come out of the prequel trilogy. He didn't say much in TPM, but his design and actions spoke loudly on screen, and thanks to the addition of the cartoons, he ended up being a pretty good character to bring back. I found Boba pretty underwhelming in all of his appearances and he went out like a lame jobber. To me, Jango was clearly the better of the two.
They do a better job than the prequels and the sequel trilogy, at times even reaching that of the OT itself if not surpassing it in some instances.
Without a doubt Maul. He had so much fantastic character development in the animated shows. Maul was so successful in his plans that he had an entire planet under his control and Sheev himself needed to shut that shit down. And then Maul was still up to stuff all the way past RoTS.
Then they gave him one of the best endings for a Star Wars villain as well as one of the best screams:
(A scream so good they gave it to him as an emote in Battlefront 2)
And sorry, but Jango is cooler than Boba. Better color scheme, better design, dual pistols, got a cool fight with Kenobi, and actually used Slave I in a dogfight.

Actually he also did nothing and fell into a hole.
weird... whose that laying on the floor? Is Liam tired?
No. He died. Maul got tired and died despite having the high ground.
PFFFTTT.
siths never have the high ground because they're morally bankrupt!
Pretty much. The Clone Wars really isn't as good as people claim it is.
Just in terms if the movies.
Maul was a Sith apprentice that solo'd two Jedi killing Quigon (a jedi master), was cut in half, then returns in Solo as a Crime Lord in charge of the Shadow Collective.
Boba Fett is a bounty hunter that transported Hans body to Jabba's Palace and then got knocked into a pitt.
Who sounds more interesting? What has Boba done in the movies to represent why he should be such a badass lol.
You have a bias though because no matter what the show did, it or the prequels would never fit in with your head canon of what that era was like, and I think that has affected your view of the series.
Neither did anything interesting. Both died like chumps. But the bounty hunter in cool armor wins in my opinion.
Nah it's better. Much more interesting themes and characters explored than in most of the ST and one of the few works that properly fleshed out the SW universe.
