Legacy #6 Out Today!








Antother fantastic issue!! If you haven't gotten into this series I have to wonder what your problems is!! The anticipation for the next issue after each issue is gripping. This issue keeps you on your toes. There is some great interaction with Cade and his crew. If you were like me and surprised by the lack of reaction from Delilah and Syn in #5 you will see that they saved it all for this issue! Things come to a explosive head when one of Cade's allies is struck down and Cade's response is "Ok, I've had enough!"

Pick it up now!! And join the rest of us as we hang in suspended animation until next month!!

STAR WARS: LETHAL ALLIANCE

Saw a new article at Game News International today with some updated information on the new Star wars Lethal Alliance game due for the Nintendo DS. Looks like it is going to be an awesome game!! I only hope it will be available for PC also! : ) The thing that surprised me was that the article said it is due out in December 2006! I haven't heard much rumor wise about this game but that's only next month! Anyway click here to check out the article: http://gamenewsi.com/index.php?catid=1&itemid=2022

And if your are unfamiliar with this game here's a link to the article at Starwars.com about the characters of the game:

Dark Horse Comics - Panel to Panel 2?

From Randy Stradley:

Panel 2 Panel: Would you believe, 2 Panel 2 Furious? Well, whatever we end up calling it, it's true -- a second volume of Panel to Panel is in the works. Set for (I think) May 2007 release, it wil focus on Dark Horse Comics' contributions to the Expanded Universe. For a sneak peek at at new piece by Tsuneo Sanda that was commissioned for the book, point your bowsers to: http://sandaworld.sakura.ne.jp/works/newwork12/

That Artwork is fantastic!!

BOUNTY HUNTERS PULL:

Picked up two Bounty Hunter boosters for the Star Wars Miniatures game Friday night! Got some great pulls. I am just getting underway with getting the Bounty Hunters set so still had several figures that I didn't have. The most notable were:

the Young Krayt Dragon
Bossk
Colo Nord

also got the rest of the commons I didn't have.

LEGACY #6 COVER POSTED

Finally we get to see the cover for Legacy #6. It is as I expected it would be. The ultra cool Imperial Knights on the cover! This series is great! I am totally impressed with the story so far and can't wait to see where it goes.

My desire at this point is that they don't resolve the issue of Cade turning his back on his Skywalker legacy in the first story arc. I hope that if they decide to turn him around and he decides to embrace his Jedi legacy. That he does not do so until the 3rd or 4th story arc. They need to keep with brooding hero struggling with his legacy thing for awhile.

This issue supposedly hits stand November 22. Only three weeks away!! Lets keep our fingers crossed!! :)
