That time Han Solo helped the Resistance before The Force Awakens

That time Han Solo helped the Resistance before The Force Awakens

Did you know that Han Solo actually helped the Resistance before The Force Awakens?  It's true.  All of it. It's possible that Han helped the Resistance in a more formalized way in the very early days of the Resistance, since that happened before Ben Solo's rebellion and Han and Leia's split, though we know nothing [...]

Age of Republic: Count Dooku comic shows Dooku confronting his Jedi past

The Age of Republic comic line is coming to a close soon, with issues coming next month on Padme Amidala and General Grievous before the series shifts to Age of Rebellion.  I have genuinely enjoyed all of the Age of Republic comics so far, as they've told very fun stories with terrific artwork while delving [...]

Anakin Skywalker wrestles with his responsibilities as a Jedi General in latest Age of Republic comic

I have been thoroughly enjoying the Age of Republic comics so far, and the most recent issue, this one about Anakin Skywalker, was no exception. In these comics, written by Jody Houser, we take a closer look at a certain prequel hero or villain each time.  Already we've looked at Qui-Gon Jinn, Darth Maul, Obi-Wan [...]

Jar-Jar Binks saved Captain Rex’s life during the Battle of Mimban by using a lightsaber!

In this week's Star Wars comic "Age of Republic Special 1," we get three different short stories about three different people from the Republic era.  There's a story about Mace Windu, about Asajj Ventress, and about Rex and Jar-Jar Binks. It's that latter story that was particularly exciting, because we get to see Jar-Jar and [...]

Age of Republic Jango Fett comic shows the bounty hunter meeting Count Dooku, training Boba

I have really enjoyed the Age of Republic comics so far, written by Jody Houser, and each issue focuses on a hero or villain from the prequels.  The most recent issue, which was the fourth overall, tells a story about the infamous bounty hunter Jango Fett. This issue tells of a mission Jango Fett takes [...]

Age of Republic Obi-Wan Kenobi comic shows his first mission with Anakin Skywalker

One of the more recent Age of Republic comics was about Obi-Wan Kenobi, the legendary fan-favorite Jedi Master.  This comic series, which has been very enjoyable so far (and is written by Jody Houser), focuses on a different character from the prequel era each time.  First it was Qui-Gon Jinn, then Darth Maul, and now [...]
