All the SW freaks, myself included thinks lukes da man over at theforce.net.... of course...that's why wedge beat luke 58-48 in the poll, didn't he? :D Gotta disagree with you there, Lynk. The NJO kicks some serious butt. I don't like everything a...  [Read More]

it is indeed disappointing. i've only read the first few pages of the first issue- the introductory parts, with ten nunb in his B-wing charged with fire control and Janson & Tycho on patrol- and it got my hopes up. pity people claim the rest of t...  [Read More]

yes, they're taking place before the other ones. They're meant to be a introduction into the Rogue Squadron series, since The Rebel Opposition didn't really serve as a good first arc for the series. I hear that this new mini-series is only mediocre,...  [Read More]

darth windu- fair enough. i guess if I just figured that the comparison wouldn't be good since y-wings really couldn't hold their own against TIEs, but Hurricanes could against Me-109s. then again, like someone said, y-wings were decent fighters bef...  [Read More]

the stories aren't actually told anywhere- they happen "off screen", in a manner of speaking. You can check the Hand of Thrawn duology (Scepter of the Past, Vision of the Future) by Zahn for more info on Fel's re-defection, but that only me...  [Read More]

haha. The Adventures of Corran Horn. Good point, Stackpole did tend to do that. Thankfully, though, I felt he did a helluva better job in focusing on the Squadron as a whole for the comic series. He touched on the rapport that all the members of the...  [Read More]

I personally much prefer Allston, to be honest. Though Stackpole's books had stronger plots, I felt his diague was really weak and artificial. Honestly, all his lines sounded so... contrived. It was hard to believe people actually spoke like that! Al...  [Read More]
