::alters thread title to reflect the actual issue title and not the cover's catch-phrase::

Looks to be a good issue- hopefully it'll resolve the Obi-wan-missing story arc.

Anakin to the rescue apparently. mischief

Looks like he'll save Obi's life yet again. Ironic considering how he dies. tongue

I wonder what the reunion will be like? Hopefully they'll both get choked up, it'll make the eventual betrayal that much worse. sad

Here's hoping Alpha will send some more Seperatists to meet his "father". wink

hmm... looks like they are squaring off against a ragtag group of brawlers... maybe they are going into some sort of gladitorial combat again, just judging from the cover...

I noticed that too, how in the hell do you screw up something that important.

Thanks T2Q blush

jawajames- Those are bounty hunters.

The Summary- Escaping from Ventress Asajj's fortress, Obi-Wan Kenobi and the clone trooper Alpha are pursued by Separatists and bounty hunters. Crash landing on a desolate planet, they are soon cornered. The bounty hunters give Alpha a choice: walk away from the fight, or die with his Jedi companion. Will Alpha's "live to fight another day" training win out? Or can the Force reveal another way to survive the ordeal before time runs out?


EDIT: I didn't notice the hand [face_shocked]

Yeah, poor fellow (though it would funny if Ki-Adi wnet on a killing spree after finding that out, and is also hiding that like Anakin.. hehe)

Asked Randy about Anakin's hand-

"It's just a special skin-colored glove that he wears when he's sleeping.










Not buying it, huh?

It's a coloring goof. I shoulda caught it, but I didn't. I guess I'd better fire Brad Anderson, then myself...

Poor Ki-Adi-Mundi, went to all the trouble to save his daughter, and to try and conceive a son and now they're dead.

Unlucky.

Well, it does solve one thing:

Anakin: Why can't I be married? You guys are!

Ki-Adi-Mundi: Nah, they're dead, doesn't count.

Neeja: And my woman's hooked up with that security guard. Uh...doesn't count either.

Anakin: Damn.


Whoah, Anakin's a little messed up in the head based on those first two pages. Well, more so than usual.

Awesome insight Quentin. tongue

Of course Anakin is screwed up in the head, he's a tragic hero! It's a prerequisite. happy

*That's* something new? But yes, tough break for the Cerean. His wiveys weren't exactly a pack of bowsers, either...

Ha! I bet Ki's people wish they had some technology now! laugh

Super Battle Droid: Lay down your weapons.

Cerean: We don't have any.

Super Battle Droid: What?

Cerean: We live a utopian existance with no technology where every male gets a dozen wives.

Super Battle Droid: Good, that will make this easy.

*BLAM*

Yeah...hey, damn, if Cerean male birthrates are so low that even a Jedi is needed for genetic diversity...that race has got to be seriously hurting from any severe loses in battle.
