Star Wars #30

Star Wars #30 comic reviewLed by the journals of Obi-Wan Kenobi, Luke Skywalker‘s journey takes him to an unnamed planet in the Vagadarr System where he will cross paths with Garro, who still holds a grudge for Yoda‘s interference on the world decades before. Seeing Yoda’s adventures in flashbacks, the Jedi Master uses the Force to restore balance to the planet by reanimating the Giants of Living Stone.

Fueled by years of bitterness since the Jedi Master left, Garro has seen his world transformed in ways he never imagined and decides to take that anger out on Luke, hoping to strip the pilot (who he mistakes for Yoda’s student) of his power to finish off the rock creatures and restore order to his world.

Darth Maul #2

Darth Maul #2 comic reviewLearning that a Jedi Padawan is being held by the Xrexus Cartel, Darth Maul ignores the explicit orders of his master and makes his way to Nar Shaddaa looking for answers. Unable to reveal his true nature to those he needs to beat information out of, Maul instead hires some help in his search for Jedi.

Fans of Star Wars: The Clone Wars will likely get a kick out of seeing both Cad Bane and Aurra Sing as part of the bounty hunter team Maul puts together to lead him to the auction in the Drazkel System where the Padawan Eldra Kaitis is the prize… although I doubt the Sith has any intention on paying for her. The pair provide the information Maul is looking for, but don’t know who their cloaked benefactor is or why he is so interested in the event.
