This week is a slew of new
Star Wars comics, starting off with
Dark Times: A Spark Remains #5. The fight is on! Darth Vader and his numerous forces are besieged with death traps. A showdown with the Jedi who lured Vader to this doom is inevitable—and now Darth Vader is angry. Do not underestimate the power of an angry Sith! Randy Stradley and fan-favorite artist Doug Wheatley complete what may be the last arc of this series!
Next is a brand new series from writer Tim Siedell and artist Gabriel Guzman,
Darth Vader and the Cry of Shadows. During the Clone Wars, a single trooper—left for dead during battle—comes to hate the Jedi generals who abandoned him. Years later, he lives on, bitter and angry, until hearing tales of a great warrior. Now, this clone believes he may have found the leader he should have been following all along...Darth Vader!
Also on sale is the second issue in the amazing
Dawn of the Jedi series, entitled
Force War! The Je’daii go on the offensive against the invading Rakatan Empire! Xesh uses his Force Hound training to locate the Rakatan command center, which sparks an ambitious plan: infiltrate the enemy stronghold and kill the supreme commander. But Xesh has not accounted for a traitor in his own ranks! John Ostrander and Jan Duursema continue their ancient story of the birth of the Jedi. No one can do it better!
And finally, Corinna Bechko and Gabriel Hardman delve into the story of the Solo family's descendant with
Legacy (vol 2) #10. With a little help from her friends, Ania Solo is leading the Mon Calamari slaves to freedom...Don’t bother telling her the odds of anyone coming out alive against an enormous force of armed pirates!
