Nah, its more like dancing . wink

So, a one-week article? I'm interested in how this will look: will it be in-universe like the Droids and Force, possibly in-universe (could be, but never explicitly stated) like the Mando article, or out-of-universe?

Here's hoping for some good retcons/references. coffee

Sounds like this could be a good one, although I bet wish they'd saved the Grievous cover from #83 for the next issue now lol.

I hope it tells all the Jedi he's killed.

Sweet. This should be a good issue. I believe this is also the issue that sees Pablo Hidalgo and Joe Corroney (with Dan Wallace!)returning to do a few more HoloNet News articles.

Expect it to be more in the style of History of the Mandalorians.

Hey Bootleg. There will be art, but Joe and I will probably not be working together on this one. Sad, I know. sad

We did just turn in some new proposals together, though, so we'll be sure to let you know if any of those pan out.

Take care,
Abel

It should probably hit subscribers around late September/early October.

Take care,

Well I'll be frinked. Finally a detailed biography on the origins of this being. I wonder if he had a first name, seeing how General just wouldn't work out for a kid's name. wink
