reposting link to stream.

How can something be so close yet so far, far away?

How many miniseries are we up to? Five?

I think I'll just wait for them to compile them into one book. It will probably happen eventually.

I think it's just Lando and Leia thus far.

Star Wars and Darth Vader are going to running for a long time like regular comics. We have to hope Gillen keeps up the high quality of Vader and isn't replaced after the first book.

I thought Darth Maul and Darth Vader got minis too.

[up] Maul had his "Son of Dathomir" mini-series in four issues, while Vader is a full, ongoing series alongside the main one.

Fun fact: the latest issue of Star Wars reached the point where Darth Vader started. Darth Vader is still the critics favorite and is selling about a 100K more copies of each issue than Star Wars it seems. It was also the number #2 book in Feb while Star Wars was #4.

R2-D2 and BB-8 on stage.

I can only assume Chopper is planning their deaths as we speak.

BT-1 is probably also doing it.

I like how we have a small family of psychopath droids.

In-universe it could be that Kylo Ren is totally original because Revan possibly never existed.

From the displays of his outfit and lightsaber, I think he might be self trained.

Wow, it looks like they really are using mostly practical effects. Though was that big ruined ship they flew into CG?

Greg Rucka will be writing The Force Awakens: Shattered Empire, which will bridge the gap between Return of the Jedi and the new movie.

WHAT A GOOD TRAILER.

Vader's voice actor sounds weird though.

Retcons, retcons everywhere. Last i recall the A-wing and the B-wing both weren't devised until in the time of the OT (depending on who you talk to, they might not even have been made until the 1-year gap between Empire and Return).

Guess that's changed too.

Nice to see some of the Clones stayed good.

[up][up] Still James Earl Jones. Probably because we've gotten used to the imitators by now, and probably because Jones's older voice can't quite reach the same strength any more.

[up][up] Well, the show takes place four years before A New Hope begins, so it technically already is in the time of the Original Trilogy era.

Did the B and A-wings even show up in the movies?
