Ghost Down Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Hey, I was thinking of buying some Star Wars comics, so which ones do you recommend? - Ghost Down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabretooth Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I haven't read them all, but I've done the Tales of the Jedi and that's a fun line of comic books, in my opinion. The Sith War and Redemption are the best in TotJ. The new Knights of the Old Republic series is also good - not awesome, but it's worth a read.

Jeff Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I really enjoy the KotOR series, its currently the only SW comic I'm subscribed to. I started out on Legacy but didn't like it but now I wish I had stuck with it because its beginning to look sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
igyman Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I read SW Knights of the Old Republic and SW Legacy. The only thing I resent the KoTOR comics at the moment is the artist. The guy just doesn't have that drawing style that fits the KoTOR comics. They need to bring back either Brian Ching or Dustin Weaver. When it comes to the story, the Legacy series are becoming more and more interesting, while the KoTOR series are heading in a strange direction, but not necessarily a bad one.

Miltiades Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Have only read Vol. 1 & 2 of the Kotor comics, but they're very good IMO. Looking forward to Vol.3 (I guess that's where the drawing style differs from the previous?) Haven't read the Legacy comics, but I think I'll give it a try.

MacTavish Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 You should read he Tales of the Jedi: Golden Age of the Sith comics. They're really good and pretty much tell the story of Naga Sadow becoming Dark Lord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starmark2k Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 If you're looking currently running Comic Series Legacy and KotOR are the ones i'd go for. If you are looking into TPB(Trade Paper Back) i enjoyed reading the Empire Series and the first Rebellion TPB as that one rounds off the Last stroy of the Empire Series.

REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 @GD, As far as I remember most of the ones you got are pretty good. The TotJ KotOR comics are some of my favorite of all time. There were some Clone War era ones that were actually decent, can't remember the names though, with that one dreadhead jedi who was trying to infiltrate the seperatists or something. The Rogue Squadron stuff was pretty good too. Look for a series called Crimson Empire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Down Posted August 21, 2007 Author Share Posted August 21, 2007 Crimson Empire I and II ? Btw, are there any comics similair to the drawing style of Star Wars: Darth Maul, Jedi vs. Sith, Jango Fett: Open Seasons, Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan: Last Stand on Ord Mantell and Starfighter: Crossbones? - Ghost Down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seamhainn Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 I can't recommend the Knights of the Old Republic series highly enough. (Rumor has it that more characters from the Game(s) will appeare in the next few issues.) Also the Tales of the Jedi paperbacks are a must read for every KotOR fan. In the Star Wars Tales paperback (#6 if I am not mistaken, which is *not* the same as the Tales of the Jedi series) are two very interesting KotOR short stories!

Prime Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Depending on what era you are interested in, I recommend... Republic Legacy Dark Times KOTOR And yes Moel, Legacy has really come into its own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Down Posted August 22, 2007 Author Share Posted August 22, 2007 Well, today I also bought; Crimson Empire and Crimson Empire II: Council of Blood - Ghost Down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jvstice Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 The Tales of the Jedi comic is advertised as coming out in an omnibus edition for DH comics in October or so. I think it has the first 3- 4 story arcs, so from a cost P.O.V. you might be better waiting the two months. KOTOR & Legacy are pretty good. I've been collecting both as they come out. The X-wing rogue squadron comic series were pretty good I thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoiuyWired Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Depending on what era you are interested in, I recommend... Republic Legacy Dark Times KOTOR And yes Moel, Legacy has really come into its own. Well, there are collections for the Republic Series I think, which includes some of the loose books of the Republic era also, like the "Star Wars; jedi Name" books. None the less, its mostly good read. Dark Times, how many books is in the series so far? I have only 1-4 so far, is there any new ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamqd Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 If you happen to like the Republic comics you could get Twilight, Darkness and the Stark hyperspace War Graphic novals which collect issues 19-39 of the "Star Wars" comic line, Then there is the Clone Wars Graphic Novals volume 1-9, they collect the Republic comics series issues 49-83. Just incase there were some issues out of print, there's obviously more but I don't own them, Good Stuff though, a lot Quinlin vos and Aayla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
