Does anybody here read Star Wars comics? They're some of the best EU material out there nowadays.

henniestevens
yes they rock. But the Novels are very good too.

SnakeEyes
I just got issue 79 of Republic. Have yet to read it though. Should be good. It's about some of the Jedi who survived Order 66.

Ianus
I can't say I've gotten the comics, just because I am so far behind on the trend.

SnakeEyes
Ah, but that's where graphic novels come into play. You can buy those at your local book store and they come in volumes. That's what I do with comics I don't get into right away. I wait for the trade paperbacks (graphic novels) to get released and then buy em that way.

Ianus
Ah, good idea. Think I might do that then.

SnakeEyes
Cool. You should look into it. Here's a link to all the graphic novels: http://www.darkhorse.com/books/title.php

Here's a link to the first Clone Wars one, which collects 2 issues of Republic (one was double-sized, and a one-shot issue about Mace Windu; all during the Clone Wars): http://www.darkhorse.com/profile/profile.php?sku=12-539

Ianus
Pimp! Thanks.

Illustrious
Yeah, I buy the graphics novels only. I don't bother with keeping up on each issue.

SnakeEyes
The only reason I get issues is because that way, I get them sooner. With some other comics, I get graphic novels.

Sir Mist
Wicked, cant wait for the new ones, I havent bought any for a while cause the comic store puts them on hold for me, and I pick up a bunch all at once every 2 months or so eek!

Ill definitley get a few of the graphic novels, like Jabiim, because they seem odd when bought in issues....

Are the Republic issues going further in the timeline after Ep3? Or are they making a new series to fill the gap?

Insane Monk
I buy the collections. It's awesome that thay're making one where Quinlan Vos survives. Did anyone else hear about that? That will be, I think it was, Republic #82 & #83

Dark Horse Star Wars Empire series is very good also. I recommend some of the stories

As far as I know, Quinlan doesn't survive, but rather they tell the story of how he dies and what he does up until that point during the events of Episode Three.

And to answer Rex's question; Republic is going to take place between Episode's 3 and 4. No new series.

Insane Monk
They are, I insist, making a comic about how Quinlan survives the blast from the walker. I can try to find the link, if you want.

SnakeEyes
I guess I don't really doubt you... but it just seems weird. Republic has always tried to be consistent with the movies and not do anything that could be a what if... Or is this supposed to be what really happened?

Insane Monk
I guess so. No matter how someone supposedly died, it is always possible for them to have survived somehow. Look at Boba Fett. Look at Palpatine. Look at Anikin (okay, so he didn't actually die). There are a lot of ways to cheat death in Star Wars.
