Vildar Mac sees the light, literally, as Tey Ferrick proves his mettle, as The HIgh Republic (Vol. 2) #10 concludes with a Jedi victor, but not without stinging losses.

May 03, 2023 15:00 - 1 hour - 133 MB

Seven Star Wars comics are out today, with five from Marvel and two from Dark Horse. It's atypical to have so many release on a single day but, hey, it's not a bad problem to have. Still, that means a rather long episode this week, along with ads (12 of 'em) and for that we apologize, though we've no control over it.

April 26, 2023 16:00 - 50 minutes - 69.1 MB

The long-delayed The High Republic Adventures -- Quest of the Jedi from Dark Horse Comics is available and, to borrow a steady cliche, it was was worth the wait.

April 05, 2023 15:00 - 53 minutes - 73.9 MB

Hidden Empire comes to a satisfyingly ambiguous close in issue #5 with the fate of Qi'ra's pitched fight vs. the Sith unsuccessful. Or was it?

March 29, 2023 15:00 - 52 minutes - 71.6 MB

The first of the Return of the Jedi 40th anniversary one-shots arrives today with Jabba's Palace #1 and it's clever and entertaining story about the protocol droid seen on screen in the film in the droid torture chamber. Think of it as the comic version of the "From A Certain Point of View" anthology books. In The High Republic #7 (of 10), a popular jedi appears to fall, not to the dark side, but to death, while in The Blade #4 (of 4) we learn about the origins of the Barash vow and it's eff...

At last, The High Republic -- The Nameless Terror #1 (of 4) is in comic shops. Was it worth the wait? Yes, very much so. Will it be difficult to wait almost two months until issue #2 is released?

After five books the week prior, we're down to just one new Star Wars comic this week -- Star Wars (Vol. 3) #30 -- but the lone title has much to offer in terms of advancing the story arc as well as linking to Lucasfilm's ambitious new era, The High Republic.
