Announced today on the Official Old Republic website, Bioware and LucasArts have once again teamed up with Dark Horse to create this original comic series published entirely online.

One of the things I loved about volume 1 of Annihilation Conquest was the Starlord Miniseries section – which was really about Starlord being forced to lead a rag-tag group of heroes on a suicide mission with little chance of success. Guardians of the Galaxy takes many of the same characters from that miniseries (those [...]

I’ve never picked up one of these Omnibuses before, and the first thing I’ve got to say is – they are huge! Before I go any further and review the actual content of this particular volume, I’ve just got to say up front, with this many comics issues bound together into one book, you almost [...]

My first novel review for NJOE was Aaron Allston’s Outcast, the first entry in the Fate of the Jedi series.  It is only fitting that my first novel review for 2010 be Aaron Allston’s newest installment into the series.    Backlash keeps its story very straight forward, bouncing back between Dathomir and Coruscant.  New characters are introduced [...]

After a long, long wait, Backlash is finally here. I wasn’t sold on Outcast - I enjoyed it well enough, but I didn’t think it was great. I’ve often said Fate of the Jedi didn’t really start for me until Omen, and Abyss is one of my favorite Star Wars books ever. But Backlash proved [...]

On the sidebar to the right of this, however, we have not one, but four [...]

August 18th 2009.  That is the date that Star Wars Fate of the Jedi Abyss was released.  Fast forward to this Tuesday, March 9th of 2010, and we finally have the newest  chapter of the Fate of the Jedi saga on the shelves of our local bookstores.  Now it’s been awhile since we saw Luke and the [...]

I’ve been wanting to read City of Souls since I first received it back in the early fall, but the timing was just never right. I’m not a big fan of Urban Fantasy – or at least, for the most part those books don’t generally appeal to me – but this one was different. Superheroes, [...]
