Well I'm glad to see this went like I thought it would. Imperial Knight isn't villain, just zealous law enforcement antagonist.

 

My guess is a typo, though jumping ahead four years from Legacy: War would work as well. It would allow us to jump into the galaxy a few years after the end of the war and as the rebuilding in underway.

Another nice cover and glad to see a familiar Legacy element return. That's not an IK lightsaber she's holding, is she? I remember they were all supposed to be the same design to reflect their service to the Emperor (well, Empress now), but don't remember the exact design and can't tell if that's blue or silver. Sounds like a great arc, only another few months to until Legacy returns.

 

I wonder if it's Anakin Solo's lightsaber, somehow...

 

I hope it is but it wouldn't be surprised if it was Anakin Skywalker's lightsaber instead

 

Anakin's was purple though

 

I just noticed that the IK has scars or cuts on his face. Nice little detail!

No preview yet? Isn't this coming out next week?

I hope we get one soon. Some of my fondest memories of the first Legacy series was all the discussion and speculation that the 3-4 page previews would generate.

Preview is up.
We have a name for the Knight on the cover of issue 3.

 

I love the preview! I believe that is a reference to the Harugi Spill asteroid belt in the Ithori system, home to Ithor!

Cartography reference for the win. :-D

Great preview. Can't wait to read the rest of the issue.

 

I like that little ship.

 

Looks like it was inspired by some of the Hasbro mini-ship toys, or some of the smaller lego sets.

 

Looks Good.

 

Great preview! I love the art. Never thought that I'd like old school style comic art so much. Now, to reread issue 1 again until I wait for next week

 

Shouldnt this be stickied ?? It comes out today!!

 

I liked the first issue well enough, but now I really love this series.

Spoiler

AG-37 is probably my favorite droid character in quite a while. Ania and Sauk, while decent leads, couldn't really hold their own in a fight, lucky accidents and pure guts aside. Now they have an assassin droid sort-of ally! A pro-Jedi one at that! Wonder which era he was referring to, Jedi usually didn't rule, unless he just means the quiet post-Ruusan to the prequel millennium. And what his debt to Ania is. I suddenly reminded of something from YJK, hm... nah.

Good art, great writing and excellent grasp of the Legacy era, can't wait to read the next issue, its so good to have Legacy back.

 

More spoilers, please?

 

Anything with Gar Stazi?
