The bad news: Ania Solo and her friends are on a planetoid that’s on a collision course with a huge space station. The worse news: a mad Sith warrior stands between them and escape!
Imminent fiery destruction, or white-hot dismemberment by lightsaber? Some days there are just no good choices!
• Action-packed conclusion of the first arc!

Cool ship design!

 

Took the words right out of my mouth.

 

You know, the more I look at it, the more it seems like it could become one of my favorite ship designs in the whole SW universe.

 

That's a nice cover!

 

They had me at "imminent fiery destruction".

 

Hmm, so the impostor Sith seems genuinely insane, on some suicide mission to destroy a space station with a mobile planetoid.

I wonder what Ania's journey will be... if she's Force-sensitive, will she perhaps take up training as an Imperial Knight? (it would be interesting to see how their training differs from that of the Jedi).

I also wonder what the overarching Plot/Threat/Villain will be of Volume 2...

 

How about we just hope we get another arc first?

 

It's a monthly ongoing...

And the first issue didn't really set up yet what the plot would be, or who the main villain is (besides this whacko Sith apprentice). It's not a bad thing to wonder.

 

I'm feeling cynical!

 

Darth Cancellation is the main threat Ania faces.

 

I sure hope not

 

I am really digging that new starfighter design! Here's to hoping that we see some wicked new warships and fighters in the Legacy Vol.2!

Anyone know how Legacy 2.0 has sold? I liked the first issue of 2.0 and I desperately wanted to read more. Not as good as 1.0 but I knew it wouldn't be. Strangely I didn't have any disconnect. I wasn't pining for more Dursema art or Kade. (Though I would prefer it )

The art style is interesting, and frankly I am just happy Legacy is going on after War ended.

 

So excited!

 

Excellent...

 

Another awesome cover, can't wait to see how the first arc will look by July.

 

I posted the sales figures in the Legacy Vol.2 #1 thread. IIRC, it sold about 21,600 issues. For comparisons sake, that is about half of the copies that March's issue of Brian Wood's Star Wars sold.

#2 comes out next week, right?

 

But are these sales still strong for Star Wars Dark Horse? I don't want to see this series go the way of Invasion and AOTE!

 

Yup, and to me it feels like eternity
