Star Wars: The Bad Batch - Infiltration / Extraction

Now with Omega (Michelle Ang) and Crosshair (Dee Bradley Baker) back in the fold, Star Wars: The Bad Batch turns its attention to working the other clones back into the larger story. After capturing one of the new clone assassins targeting both senators and searching for Omega, Rex (Baker) and his team contact Hunter (Baker) unknowingly putting them in danger of another assassin. While “Infiltration” lays the foundation of the episode and brings the characters together, “Extraction” centers around the heroes racing to stay one-step ahead of the Imperials on their trail. The episodes are solid, but not without some head-scratching moments in terms of the logic given events already laid out for the show.

Lys Solay (Juliet Donenfeld),  Kai Brightstar (Jamaal Avery Jr.), and Nubs (Dee Bradley Baker) get a snowy adventure on the planet Andraven where they help locals Gumar (Liam James Ramos) and Jam (Julian Edwards) herd a group of Nubs (Dee Bradley Baker) (think tauntauns mixed with seals) over a mountain. As with all the episodes of the series, the trio of young Jedi learn a lesson in their snowy trip which is complicated first by an avalanche and later by the loss of Jam in a snowstorm. However, not loosing her cool, Lys takes a moment, calms herself, and lets the Force guide her reuniting the group and allowing them all to slide down the mountain together for a warm reception and celebration.

Star Wars #56

Star Wars #56

Staying with stories of Lando Calrissian, Star Wars Saturday takes a look back at Lando’s return to Cloud City. Published one year after The Empire Strikes Back, Star Wars #56 features Lando’s return to the all but abandoned mining colony on Bespin. The only life he finds are his old friend Lobot half out of his mind and a group of Imperials led by the duplicitous Hugo Treece who are struggling in ridding the city of bombs left by the Ugnaughts (who apparently didn’t take kindly to Imperial rule).

Star Wars: The Bad Batch - The Return

“A Different Approach” picks up events with Omega (Michelle Ang) and Crosshair (Dee Bradley Baker) on the run together and the new pup teaching the old dog a few new tricks as Omega takes the lead in less murdery plans on getting back to the rest of the squad. It’s a nice little episode building the comradery of the two characters even more before delivering them to a remote location in time for a reunion.
