Darth Vader #30

Darth Vader #30 takes some unexpected turns as Darth Vader takes the one captured handmaiden at his disposal, Dormé (who can’t believe Sabé is willing serving the Empire), to bring the others out of hiding. Unable to defeat him, the handmaidens attempt to blackmail him with threatening his ship and the lives of all the Imperials aboard. Don’t they know who the are dealing with? Let’s just say it’s not the best plan ever.

Star Wars: The Bad Batch – The Solitary Clone

  • Title: Star Wars: The Bad Batch – The Solitary Clone
  • IMDb: link

Feeling more like an episode of The Clone Wars than The Bad Batch, we’re given an episode to catch-up on Crosshair (Dee Bradley Baker) who is sent on a mission with Cody (Baker) and other Clones for the Empire needing to squash a Separtist uprising on Desix. Along with offering a check-in with the black sheep of the Bad Batch, the episode also offers an example of how the Empire put the Clones to work after taking power and how similar their missions were… with a few key differences. It’s a fine episode that just feels out of place as the season is still trying to setting the status quo for characters not even referred to here. The episode ends with Cody apparently deserting after being unable to execute an order, but the more effective outcome would have the Empire killing him offering another lesson to Crosshair of their brutality.

Star Wars: The Bad Batch – Spoils of War / Ruins of War

  • Title: Star Wars: The Bad Batch – Spoils of War / Ruins of War
  • wiki: link / link

Star Wars: The Bad Batch returns for its Second Season with the Empire’s power growing and a dangerous but lucrative opportunity for the crew offered. Looking for a big score, for either retirement or help with the Rebellion (the Clones have differing opinions on their next course of action), the team accepts a risky mission stealing from the Empire who are cleaning out Count Dooku‘s vaults. Even a single cargo container could be the Bad Batch’s biggest score. However, things don’t go quite according to plan. Both the first two episodes focus on the heist, where the team gets separated, and then bringing the group back together (albeit without the big score they hoped for).
