This keeps getting better and better! I forgot that the Grand Army-article will also be included in Insider # 84!!! (Read about this at Karen Traviss's blog). I hope that this means that in the coming pre-tv-years we get a lot of more of these issues!!!!
Ask and ye shall receive, eddie! Let the folks at Insider know your feelings by email and they should continue to hire us trying their hardest to cram those intervening years with EU goodness.

Are there a lot of references to the GG comic series? Will we finally find out the names of some of the Jedi in there. Given that I'm compiling a list of Jedi, it kinda cheesed me off not ever being given half the names.
Yup! Some of the nameless Jedi in GG get named. (Muahahahaha!)

I think it will be out around mid-September. If I'm incorrect guys, please correct me. You could also look at the display until date on issue 83, which unfortunately, I do not have.

Finally, care to say who?
the Chiss look-a-like?
the Gran?
the Abyssin?
the Jedi working with Ph'ton in issue one?
the rest of the Padawans? Duros, Nautolan, Zabrak, and disappearing Kel Dor?

Grievous hasn’t gotten much attention since Episode 3, has he? Granted, this is probably because Obi-Wan made mincemeat out of him. The films have a disturbing trend of giving villains their comeuppance with little sympathy to hype: the deaths of Maul, Dooku, Grievous, Jango, and Boba were all pretty shocking in their abruptness. You’d think to expect it by now.

Palaptine and Vader, too, come to think of it, though you expect things to wrap up by the final movie.

You author types are always saying stuff like that. *pretends to be mad at Abel, but can't because he knows it'll be worth the wail*

Well, I'm moving in one month and should be saving every dime I have, but I've just renewed my Hyperspace suscription. With Abel's Grievous article and the upcoming GAR article, and Karen Traviss fiction... *SIGH* I needed me Insider.

Um... on the OS, in the summary for Insider 84 it doesnt even mention The story of GG!
I'm really excited abiout the clones story and the return of Holonet, though.

Well, either SoGG has been canceled/pushed back an issue or they didn't think it was important to mention. Either way, they really need to get their priorities straight. tongue

Yea, where'd it go? Looking at our new article for Insider 84 said nothing about Grievous, only the clone army and the creatures of Episode III.
