Cool variant, is it meant to look like Kanan has grey hair?

 

Its his dark hair glowing light blue because his sabre is the only close light source

Poor Caleb hopefully when he gets out he'll give Janus a quick force choke or something as payback

 

Hmmm, so Kasmir wasn't running a con, but he might be having second thoughts...

 

Aw, poor Caleb. And wow, those chips really do a number on the clone troopers, don't they?

 

Yay, more confirmation of non-humanoid Ortolans in the new canon

I can't wait to read this issue, Kanan is the SW comic series I'm enjoying the most. I think it's a combination of the lovely art, Kanan's fascinating character, Weisman's general awesomeness and the fact that it's set in a different time period to the other series.

 

So this is out today then?

 

It is indeed, one of the few SW books that hasn't been delayed due to Marvel's Secret Wars push.

 

Much obliged!

 

I remember reading the previous comic (3), turning to the end to look at the date next comic was due - turning up at the shop on the day - and it wasn't there. I got the impression that Kanan (4) had been delayed quite a bit.

 

Oh ... oh! Maybe it just doesn't feel like a long time! #3 came out on June 10th and, based on the length of time between previous issues, #4 may have been delayed by a week or two. My bad!

But #4 IS out today!

 

None of you check out my sig with the release info, do you?

Or the Release Dates thread that has it too?

 

I certainly did. Sadly it is not up on comixology yet.

 

I normally just check Comixology every Wednesday and hope for the best!

 

I've got it and it's great!

 

Can't wait!

 

Just read it, so good!

 

I want to keep this artist on a Star Wars book as long as possible. He's absolutely amazing at it.

 

Whoa

Last issues' cliff hanger ending was somewhat predictable - Kasmir was bluffing indeed. But for this issues ending, I've no idea how it's gonna be resolved. How did the clones find him? Judging from Kleeves' facial expression he was just as shocked as Kanan. Maybe Kasmir "connected the dots" as to where Kanan may go, and told the clones? We'll see. Overall, this issue proves again that this series is Marvels best so far.
