Zayne Carrick is the hero that we kinda/sorta love to hate.
After all he has no blood lust, he just wants to live his life, he’s not interested in being the hero.
Yet in this issue when force the Mandos to return to the planet from which the Republic drafted him, he helps them take control of a station — in an effort to save lives.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawww.
Then he comes back to help save his Republic friends.
Nice.
But no, we still see no signs of his girlfriend, but for the first time in this series we do see his old ‘boss’ Gryph.
Good fun.

A great week ahead for SciFi comic book fans.
At the top of our list is Dark Horse Star Wars Agent of the Empire #4. This series first story arc is coming to a close and we really have no idea quite how this will be resolved. So far it has been a fun ride though. this new issue looks to continue that trend.
We get a double dose of Star Wars goodness this week too with the release of STAR WARS KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC WAR #3 (OF 5).
Yeaah Zayne Carrick is still a P*ssy but the story is good fun..and really we just want to see how he figures a way out of the mess that he’s stuck in…
Looking beyond Dark Horse we’re also interested in:
DC –
LEGION LOST #7
IDW –
DOCTOR WHO ONGOING VOL 2 #15
STAR TREK 100 PAGE SPECTACULAR 2012

The first issue of KOTOR War was ok…but this second issue really picks up the pace.
We learn about the new Mandalorian Jedi..which is a neat idea and one that we hadn’t seen before It’s also neat that they drafted Zayne and the commander of his ship too…though that didn’t quite work out.
This is an engaging story..we’re not quite sure what happens on the next page and that’s how we like it. This is a story that keeps us guessing and amazed by it unfolds.
We should see Zayne finding a way to leave the Mandalorian army sooner rather than later..but it’ll be interesting to see how much damage he does first.

KOTOR is BAck! thank you Dark Horse for bringing back this great era.
Zayne Carrick is back and he’s still kinda sorta on the run, but this time not from his own destiny…he’s trying to run from his duty to the Republic…what is strange though is that it’s not clear what happened between Knight of the Old Republic #50 and this issue..it’s just a whole blank era…i thought he connected with that former slave captain girl and was still working with the crooks…the missing years or gap isn’t a good thing and really doesnt make this feel like a continuation of the first series.
Sure it’s ZAYNE CARRICK but the character doesn’t feel like it should.
That said – he’s in Revan’s Army fighting Mandalorians. how cool is that? We barely saw Revan in the first KOTOR (and hey we haven’t seen him here yet either), but still. Even with the time gap, this is fine era, and this first issue is loaded with action. We’re looking forward to the next issue!

After 50 issues it’s over.
None of us will be getting Dark Horse Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic new issues ever again.
It’s kind of sad – and it marks the end of an era.
KOTOR never did truly live up to the fantastic plot of the video games and nearly every issue had a letter in it when some reader or the other wondered when the plots would overlap. Sure we saw Malak and Revan, but never for much more than a few cells in an issue.
This final issue kinda/sorta ends off some loose ends.
At long last Zayne and Jarael get a little friendly which is sooo very long overdue.
Will we miss KOTOR – maybe – but reality is this series could have been better, though it did have its highlights. The arc when Zayne confronts the Adascas was awesome as was the final confrontation with Hazen in issue #33- that was the best wasn’t it?
Now the word is that series author John Jackson Miller will be back later this year with Star Wars Jedi another old republic title – and that’s a good thing. The era of the Old Republic is on that demands at least one ongoing Star Wars title at all times.
So long and fair well Zayne Carrick – it was a fun ride while it lasted.

No he’s not a Jedi padawan anymore and he’s not a fugitive either..
but it sure does seem like Zayne is on the run in this issue..
This is the middle issue in this new story arc where Zayne is part of a live swoop sporting event where he’s trying to save himself and a few others.
We still don’t know what the deal is with Jarael and her force abilities..clearly that’s the big mystery that this series will continue to draw out.
How is this going to end? We’ll see in 30 days..

Knights of the Old Republic continues to impress in this post Zane on the run era.
This is the beginning of a new story arc – with a sport theme too..
Still early but the basic premise is cool a corrupt sporting association with a man who has his son trapped in the system –
Zane is about to get involved and it’s all supposed to be a scam..
but it isn’t is it?

A single issue stand alone story?
Really? Yup that what this issue of Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic is – a standalone. A whole story in one issue no need for another..and it’s pretty decent.
Sure it’s a basic – ship lost in space then found the only survivor is the killer story – but it’s still kinda fun..
What makes this one particularly interesting is the art. At first I thought it a little weird – it’s more of a sketch style – but it does grow on you and it does give this one off story a really cool feel.
Only question left after this issue is the same one we’ve been asking for a the three – which is What’s Up with Jarael? She’s got some kind of funky power, force sensitive stuff but what is it?

The double double cross is in!!
Great issue seeing Gryph doing what he does best – namely swindle others – including swindlers!!
The only problem we had with this issue is how the heck did Jarael escape the negotiation room?
Is she Force-sensitive somehow?
When did that happen?
Oh what’s the deal with Zayne is he still a ‘Jedi’ or not? Guess we’ll find out….

After three years, we finally have our first genuinely new plot story arc for Knights of the Old Republic – after the grand finale that was issue #35.
So, where do we begin?
It looks like Zayne is now just the ‘henchman’ in a criminal organization…no he’s not quite the bounty hunter type that Cade Skywalker is..but the basic character type isn’t all that different is it?
I hope that in this arc – we’ll start to see some Sith influences…and it will be great to see how Zayne eventually comes back into the Jedi Order – or not.

After three years and 35 issues this is it.
Zayne is finally vindicated. It should be a moment of triumph and climax –
BUT IT’S NOT.
This is a weak issue and one that insults the loyal readers that stuck with this book for the last three years. After everything that happened to Zayne in the very first issue we expected more – a lot more.
Zayne goes into to see the Jedi council but – do we see what happens? NOPE.
Instead Hazen (who was awesome) gets nuked from orbit – which was cool – and Zayne gets cleared.
I don’t know it’s an anti-climax and a letdown. Maybe after three years of buildup – no matter what happened would have been a downer.
Will we continue to read this title? SURE – I want to see Darth Malak, Revan and the Exile.

It’s coming to a close soon..this wasn’t the massive issue like #34 with Darth Hazen but pretty darn close.
We keep finding out more about how it was all Hazen and how Lucien Dray was a total dope all along. No surprise to Zayne but the after 34 issues it’s great to see this whole thing unravelling.
The hardest part about this story arc is because its sooo good waiting a month for the next little bit is painful.
Will the Covenant finally be destroyed at the end of this arc? I don’t see how it won’t. But the big question remains where are the Mandalorians during all of this?

All hail HAZEN!!
Or should we call this Sith spawn demon – Darth Hazen?
What an awesome storyline and one of the best pieces of cover art that I’ve seen in recent years from Dark Horse – simply amazing.
But back to the story – so it’s been this dude Hazen all along that has been pushing the direction for the Covenant?
Where did that come from? For the last two years we’ve been following this storyline and BAAAAAAAAAM now this.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s a great twist and this a great issue. We know have the final resolution at hand of this whole series – i wonder what will be left when this arc is done…

Who is Hazen?
Or should we say Darth Hazen?
All this time he’s been the Evil Dark Jedi pulling all the strings..or so it would seem and I don’t recall seeing him ever in the past 31 issues (or maybe I’m missing something??)
But Jedi on Jedi battles?
AWEsome
fULL out Jedi Mutiny/Rebellion – awesome
This series is now researching its climax — once this arc is over i wonder how it will ever be able to continue.

So Vector now hits Rebellion and Luke Skywalker..and it looks like fun…
Vader left Celeste Morne (and Vector) 20 years ago (in the timeline) in Dark Times # 12 apparently Celeste is still alive and Vader hasn’t forgotten about her either.
Will Luke – see the good in Celeste and turn her back from the Dark Side?
i guess we’ll find out…we can assume that Luke survives as does Celeste..but how Celeste gets frozen to survive till her next jump – the Star Wars Legacy era…we’ll have to wait till Rebellion #16 to find out.
So far – 7 issues into Vector we’ve had numerous confrontations and the timelines between eras has been stitched together reasonably well..with five issues or so left to go.

Finally after two and half years, Zayne Carrick if finally closing in on the last of the frakkers that framed him.
This is a fine plot moving issue but the real fun that we’ve all been waiting for since this whole series started is coming in the next issue..when Carrick will hopefully finally expose and end the covenant and finally clear his name!
Zayne Carrick, a fugitive Padawan accused of the murder of his fellow students, is on his way to the authorities in hope of clearing his name, shedding light on the Jedi Masters who framed him, and revealing the covert order to which they belong. But reaching the right people without facing off against his former masters is proving to be more difficult than Zayne imagined! Success is going to require help from every true friend Zayne has garnered in his long quest for justice.

Vader faces off against the Muir talisman and what?!!!
He runs away??
Nuts.
Decent ending to a nice story arc.
He’s trying to undermine Palpatine? I guess that’s the entre to the Secret Apprentice in the Force Unleashed..
but
Crys…oh poort Chrys
This is a dark comic book overall as we’ve reported before..characters..good characters die and their families live on so we can see the grief.
Dark Times indeed.
Now for Vector the series moves to Rebellion for Luke Skywalker to deal with. So far in six issues of Vector the story has been ..ho hum..not bad but not terribly exciting either.
As for Dark Times no more issues till 2009!!!

Continuing the march toward final vindication for Zayne is what this issue is all about.
The net on the covenant is closing with Zayne picking up more pieces of evidence and allies along the way…
A fun ending for the Exalted story arc
it’s a bit of a slower process than I personally would like but it’s all goood.
Zayne Carrick faces off against one of the Jedi Masters who framed him for the murder of his fellow Padawans in this shocking conclusion to “Exalted”!
When Zayne and his con-artist companion Gryph decided to risk it all in an attempt to prove Zayne’s innocence, they never expected a consequence for failure quite like this! Their plans ruined and their future bleak, Zayne and Gryph need to act fast or the history and traditions of an entire world could fall victim to another display of madness by the secret Jedi Covenant!

Dark Times enters Vector with the best artist in the Star Wars Universe Doug Wheatley.
Vader comes into possession of the living coffin that Zayne left Celeste in…The way that Wheatley draws Celeste is VASTLY superior to the cartoon bitch she was in Knights of the Old Republic. She’s not a cartoon character she’s ‘real’ and so is her anger.
Celesete wakes up ready to fulfill her goal of eliminating the Sith ..by taking on Vader. I’m not sure how Bomo and his band of friends will fit in…but the Vader angle is slick.
Vader has little or no relationship with the ancient Sith at this point so this might be an interesting part of his further exploration of his Sith legacy.
It’ll also be interesting to see how they get rid of Celeste or the Talisman this time around…

wow…Dark Horse has really cranked up KOTOR lately …sure the Vector storyline that concluded in the last issue was tremendous — but this new story arc looks pretty cool too.
After all Zayne is finally going after the Covenant.
The only problem -AND ITS A HUGE PROBLEM WITH THIS KRIFING SERIES IS THE ART – Zayne is drawn completely differently but i’m kinda used to that..
But Jarael?? She is unrecognizable.
Doesn’t anyone have a style guide at Dark Horse? Is there no quality control?
Inconsistent character art aside – a great start to what will hopefully be the final resolution of Zayne and the Covenant’s attempt to pin the Padawan murders on him.
