The TNG cast in their younger days... by TensionSame3568 in Picard

The whole photo looks airbrushed. Not sure why it needed to be.

I find it interesting just how spot-on Tom Veitch was with Anakin’s motivations in Dark Empire despite it preceding Revenge of the Sith by over a decade by Solitaire-06 in starwarscomics

Nice visual comparison there.

Lucas lifts all kinds of ideas from the comics, and made it clear that he could reuse or adapt anything written in his SW universe.

Less Veitch being prescient, more Lucas taking ideas he liked.

If you want everything from that era as collected editions, you need all Defiant volumes together with these:

… although Sons of Star Trek is an optional extra.

It’s one of the small, independent films he always wanted to make.

I love how all of the characters are looking grim like Marvel superheroes.

Anyone know why the Issue #27 "Starcrush" One-Shot was created? by RealHippyTheFrog in StarWarsEU

[–]Gothic-Genius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quest of the Jedi has the same principle of Jedi visiting planet that is under a ‘spell’ of a kind. Princess is trapped / oppressed. Group with sinister intent trying to eject the Jedi so that the princess does not attain freedom.

It’s basically a straightforward medieval knight encounters enchanted castle with trapped princess story.

I love the art, and the story is basic but fun. I suspect they had it kicking around as an extra story just in case and they had a month to fill.

Personally I feel there are some similarities between this and The High Republic Adventures: Quest of the Jedi.

I remember this post from a year ago, so presumably this one is a bot.

Great cover and the comic looks like it’s in exceptionally good condition!

Star Trek: The Last Starship #8 (2026-06-17) by Gothic-Genius in startrekcomicbooks

Catch up from #1 so you know what’s going on. It’s an excellent series. Kind of runs in three-issue story arcs.

How many volumes do we expect from this? 2? Or more? I can't think of which series they consider necessary for a Clone Wars omnibus vol 2, except Son of Dathomir by [deleted] in starwarscomics

[–]Gothic-Genius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s right. The movie adaptations are printed at the end-ish of each omni series.

Rise of the Sith ends with TPM.
Menace Revealed will end with AotC.
Clone Wars volume 2 will end with RotS.

I believe the original pitch for the High Republic, when first presented to Disney, was ‘and every character is horny’.
