Last time Cade saw the Princess Fel he was saving her from the Sith.
Now what — a year later he finally sees her again and there is no emotion at all. Seemed a bit odd.
Cade coming to the hidden Jedi Temple however is very cool great to see the Jedi still have an organized home of some sort and that maybe they’ll send out a hit squad to Kill Darth Krayt.
The issue with the Jedi that ‘killed’ Cade’s pal’s dad is going to be interesting to see how it plays out…
but the big thing of course is the coming three way alliance between Jedi, Imperial Knights and the Galactic Alliance against the Sith.
This series never disappoints and i’m wonderng how the big alliance will be impacted by Vector and the Muir Talisman when it hits them later this year.

Just when you thought Star Wars Legacy couldn’t get any better – or more complex – it does.
Uncle Nate Skywalker just added a whole new dimension.
Cade kinda/sort looks like Uncle Nate and it’s kinda cool to see that Cade isn’t the only Skywalker of the Legacy era to have gone the rough and tumble route. There was no indication whatsoever at the end of Legacy #23 that Nate was a Skywalker or Cade’s real uncle.
We finally find out a little more about why Cade didn’t know about his mother…and we get a little bit of insight into Cade’s upbringing…
Oh and a nifty new former ‘beau?’ from the Jedi Academy who is really an Imperial Knight. Wicked cool stuff.
It looks like we finally might see Cade come face to face with the Princess and (maybe Roan Fel too) after what seems like a 14 issues hiatus.

Cade Skywalker is back!
Roan Fel is Back!
And yes Legacy is still awesome.
Great to see Cade return to his bounty hunter friends — he is not a Jedi and he’s not a Sith. Cade Skywalker is the Han Solo of Skywalkers..he’s rough and he speaks Huttese.
Nice to see that Darth Talon isn’t dead yet either (she’s the hottest Sith ever) though that was just a one cell image with her in the bacta tank so it’ll take some time till we see her again.
Nice to see Roan Fel and his daughter — that’s a storyline that has been neglected for what…a year at this point?
So much going on in this series it’s hard to even begin to speculate what comes next but just seeing each of the pieces moving around is fun.
And last but not least, Jan Duursema the finest artist in the expanded Star Wars universe is back! hurray.

Kill all the Mon Cals? a bit extreme even for a Sith.
A real solid plot driving story for the wider (no Cade Skywalker) Star Wars Legacy story…and great to see the GA and Roan Fel’s empire perhaps link up to take on Krayt’s empire.
Art in his is ok, but not great by Legacy standards… I can hardly wait till Jan Duresema comes back.
for that matter i can hardly wait to see what’s going on with Roan Fel..or his daughter! How many issues has it been since we saw them last?
TOO MANY.
But soon…soon all will be revealed (or at least we hope it will).
Star Wars Legacy Miniatures – They don’t look right March 26, 2008

When we first saw the ads in Dark Horse’s Star Wars Legacy for the new miniature figures…we were krifing stoked.
Then we went over to the vendors site to actually see what the figures look like…
ummm.. i dunno about you but that doesn’t look like Cade Skywalker. Since when does Cade have straight hair?
The Delilah Blue figure is even worse.
It (cause i refuse to call this trash a woman) looks like some kind of weird tranny..
I don’t know who approved this trash..but I really hope Lucas Licensing (and Dark Horse) put a stop to this travesty.

I like this Admiral Stazi and its too bad this is only a two issue story arc.
SOLID STUFF..good characters, good dialogue, good action.
The fact that Stazi has no Jedi with him is surprising..not sure why the Jedi and the GA wouldn’t be more closely aligned.
Then again perhaps we’ll see that in a future arc..when Cade joins the GA..wouldn’t that be sweet?
Anyways a solid mini-story within the awesome Legacy universe, it’s now time to see what else is going on…like where is Roan Fel???

After 6 plus issues of nothing by Cade Skywalker it’s great to see ‘the other side’ (or at least of them) in the massive universe that is Star Wars Legacy.
The Galactic Alliance (GA) or rather what’s left of it is still on the run … remember this isn’t just about Sith and Jedi
It’s not even about GA vs Empire..its wider…remember that we’ve got GA, Roan Fel’s Empire and then the Sith Empire ..and then the Jedi in between in various sections.
I don’t think i’ve ever seen the docking ring above the Mon Calamari homeworld which was awesome to see and the plot (as always) was fantastic.
Of course the Sith would want to finish off the GA, and what better way than a trap!

Wow. What an ending.
This is the story arc that we had been waiting for ever since Legacy first hit the stand and boy did it deliver.
Cade face to face with Darth Krayt (whose identity is finally revealed) as the last Skywalker decides whether or not he will follow Vader to the Dark side.
Finally his friends come to the rescue and for the first time in more than 6 issues, Cade is back on the Mynock.
WOW.
All this time though we have been missing out on the other goings on in the new Legacy universe…so while this story arc has been one of the most impressive Star Wars storylines of all time…we’re eager for a bit of a break..and see what everyone else is up too…
Star Wars Legacy #18 – Cade Skywalker Kills the Sith Hottie January 7, 2008

The last 17 issues of Legacy have been awesome and issue number 18 continues that tradition.
We finally learn of the link between Darth Krayt and Darth Caedus – the critical link that connects Star Wars Legacy with the New Jedi Order and Legacy of the Force books.
It’s a fine link – essentially Vergere – the same Jedi creation that changed Jacen Solo did the same kind of thing to Hett/Darth Krayt while onboard a Vong Cruiser.
The Sith that are hiding out on Korriban in the time of Legacy of the Force (that Lumiya and Alema Rar knew) are the same as Krayt’s Sith…hurray! Anything else likely would not have made sense and would have messed up continuity and canon.
Beyond the end of Darth Krayt explaining how he came into being..we see the Vong’s Embrace of Pain (yup that sucker) but as opposed to Jacen Solo (and maybe Ben
Skywalker too?) it doesn’t mess up Cade…too much (yet).
Perhaps most importantly though…Cade sees a vision of his Dad – Kol Skywalker – and rejects the Sith – fighting his way out and killing (or so we think) the Sith hottie herself..Darth Talon (yeah her…the awesome Twi’lek that Cade hooks up with and the same that is on the cover of issue zero of Legacy.
Again the artwork is sheer brilliance and is the best of any current ongoing Star Wars series.
It will be VERY interesting to see what happens next as Cade’s MAMA and Cade’s ole bounty hunting pals help him out to escape the clutches of Krayt…
Oh and what about Roan Fel and his daughter?
Lots of stuff for us to get caught up on…and then of course there is Vector….man oh man…if Legacy was a weekly series i don’t think it would be enough!!
Is Darth Talon really dead? We’ll see…one thing is for sure, i don’t think she’ll easily be forgotten.

Star Wars Legacy of the Force Fury has a furious pace. From end to end the characters are engaged in battle, some larger than others.
This isn’t the best book in the series but it is in the top two. The conflict/civil war continues to be very confusing all around and this book doesn’t simplify the conflict much.
In terms of plot it ends a few plot lines : Centerpoint and Alema Rar. It also closes the loop on the secrecy of Allanna which is neat.
But the book is still space opera..with dozens of loose ends..which is of course why there are still more books to follow.
The double life of Caedus/Solo continues to be annoying…he’s the only one that knows he’s a ‘real’ Sith..and the real ‘Sith’ for some reason continue to remain in the shadows. I hope we’ll see more of the Korriban Sith sooner rather than later.
Overall 3.5 out of five stars for this latest book in the Star Wars Legacy saga.
Cade Skywalker Hooks Up With The Sith – Star Wars Legacy #17 November 12, 2007

Star Wars Legacy #17 continues the string of unbroken AWESOME stories in this series.
Cade Skywalker now hooks up with the Sith – literally and figuratively. I never thought of the Sith as sexual creatures but there it is…certainly a first in Star Wars comics as far as I know.
The T’willek’s lekku (those long things coming from their heads) being used as a tool for seduction is also something i’ve never ‘seen’ in a comic book. Has Cade actually turned to the Dark side? well….sure there is darkness in him..but somehow I think that the battle between light and dark is one that Cade will face his entire life (as did Quinlan Vos whom Cade’s exploits mimic in alot of ways).
The depth, complexity and richness of this series continues to grow and like most other fans..i can’t wait to get my hands on the next issue!
