Let not them that wait on thee, O Lord GOD of hosts, be ashamed for my sake: let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel. -- Psalm 69:6 |

Media Release -- A long time ago, in a galaxy not so far away, LucasFilm contacted Marvel Comics and licensed an official comic book adaptation of their soon-to-be-released film Star Wars. Writer Roy Thomas, penciler Howard Chaykin and inker Steve Leialoha adapted the film over the course of the first six issues of the monthly comic, which went on to become one of Marvel’s biggest hits of the 1970s. Marvel continued to publish the ongoing adventures of Luke Skywalker Han Solo and friends until 1986.

Star Wars: Dark Times – Out of the Wilderness #5 of 5
Dark Horse Comics
Stradley, Wheatley & Jackson
The latest arc of Dark Times wraps up with a bit of a happy ending for a change. The theme for this book is that bad things can and will happen to the cast and death is constantly stalking the characters. However, this book manages to advance the book in an unforeseen direction, but still manages to create a cast that is very much on the run and still in great danger. This isn’t the best arc for Dark Times but I liked this arc and this comic, particularly, a lot. This issue leads us to believe that there will be more from Dark Times and that is a good thing.

Star Wars: Force Storm - Dawn of the Jedi #3 of 5
Dark Horse Comics
Ostrander, Duursema & Parsons
Ostrander and Duursema continue to build a new world set thousands of years ago in the Star Wars universe with the same care and attention to detail they poured into creating the ends of the Skywalker line in Star Wars Legacy. This issue ups the action and shows what these early Jedi are capable of and, as a result, show us exactly where these different Jedi are deficient. The book is a fantastic read as it sets up the fight and presents the aftermath. Duursema flexes her artistic muscles in this book as only she can in the Star Wars universe. This is simply an outstanding read.

Star Wars: Agents Of The Empire – Iron Eclipse #5 of 5
Dark Horse Comics
Ostrander, Roux, Hugonnard-Bert
The first mini-series of Agents of the Empire wraps up with a fun and exciting issue with a nice surprise ending. The book has had a hold on the original Star Wars film's roots by including Han and Chewie here and there in the series, but the main story is about the James Bond-like Imperial agent, Cross. The book really doesn't focus at all on the Empire, but rather a mystery and a horror/science-fiction hybrid of an ending. It's a great ending issue to a very good story.

Instead of a review, this week's column contains an interview with artist Doug Wheatley by Mark Allen.
As a fan of comic books and strips for over 35 years, I actively refer to Doug Wheatley as "an artist's artist". All that really means is that, in my eyes, he is one of the most accomplished artisans in the comics industry, today. While I can only speak for myself, however, I suspect that his refined, realistic style has convinced many other fans of the same. It was a pleasure to conduct this short interview with him, and I appreciate his patient, enthusiastic manner.

What if Darth Vader actively raised his son? What if "I am your father" was just a stern admonishment from an annoyed dad? In this hilarious and sweet comic reimagining, Darth Vader is a dad like any other—except with all the baggage of being the Dark Lord of the Sith. Celebrated artist Jeffrey Brown's delightful illustrations give classic Star Wars™ moments a fresh twist, showing that the trials and joys of parenting are universal, even in a galaxy far, far away. Life lessons include lightsaber battling practice, using the Force to raid a cookie jar, Take Your Child to Work Day on the Death Star, and the special bonding moments shared between any father and son.

Dawn Of The Jedi #0
Dark Horse Comics
Ostrander & Duursema
The zero issue of the new Star Wars series is essentially a handbook for the new series. The book basically explains the general set-up of the Star Wars universe some 30,000 years before the films take place. Overall, the book does a good job of moving the massive amount of information and pieces into place in preparation of the new series but I was a little turned off by the price point and the absence of any story pages. Based on how dense this book is with information it sure seems like this will be mandatory reading if you want to hit the ground running when you pick up the first issue in two weeks.
Media Release -- As the Star Wars saga joins the 3D revolution with the cinema release of Episode I, Titan is delighted to announce the release of the official Totally: The Phantom Menace magazine.
