June 18th, 20190136Combine mortal terror with a mild hallucinogen and what you get is Vader -- Dark Visions #5, the final issue in a mini series that came about through a long and winding process, with some supreme successes, a lot of controversy on and off the pages and and some truly amazing visuals that left us reeling in all the right ways. In...
June 11th, 20190202We enjoyed a rather telling story of what may have been for Luke Skywalker and the efforts that Emperor Palpatine made to try and lure the son of Vader to the Dark Side. Star Wars: Age of Rebellion -- Luke Skywalker #1 made us think while, at the same time, riveting us with its space-borne action and fighting. We also had a great...
June 4th, 20190282Just two issues but so much to talk about, thanks to not just Vader -- Dark Visions #4, but Marvel's return to legends and lore with Star Wars #108, a sprawling, ambitious and immensely satisfying nod to the original 1977-86 run of Marvel's first volume of Star Wars. The over-sized issue is so immense that we asked Mark Paniccia, who...

Then we travel back to the Original Trilogy with Star Wars: Age of Rebellion -- Jabba the Hutt, which sports an...
May 23rd, 20190117After a too-long hiatus, the Young Padawans have returned.

Besides the comics, the Padawans...
May 21st, 20190143Much to discuss this episode, given Marvel released three Star Wars comics on May 15 -- TIE Fighter #2, Star Wars #66 and Age of Rebellion -- Lando Calrissian #1 -- that featured some solid storytelling, lush visuals and, of course, cliffhangers galore! https://api.spreaker.com/v2/episodes/17954752/download.mp3 This week's Star...
May 14th, 20190211A new arc begins in Doctor Aphra #32 and Boba Fett's laconic gunslinger image is burnished in the pages of Star Wars: Age of Rebellion -- Boba Fett #1 as Jeff and Matt talk about last week's Star Wars comics this week.

Joining us this week is writer Ken Lowery, whose fan-made Rebel: A...
