This book tells three stories from the Clone Wars. The second is about Obi-Wan and a group of other Jedi facing off against the same evil duo, trying to find out how to stop a dangerous chemical weapon from being unleashed. The first is Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi vs. Asajj Ventress and Durge. The third sees Shaak Ti fighting alongside Quinlan Vos and a team of prisoners to stop a Seperatist commander. Each story is filled with action and is a great read for Star wars fans.
This is a great series. Absolutely worth to begin an excellent Star Wars series. The art is great and there are a lot of details and things to watch in these magazines.
Excellent story and artwork. Brings forth 2 new villians Asajj Ventress a dark jedi and Durge the bounty hunter. Dark horse comics truely know what they are doing with these comics. i deffinetly recommended this comic.
I'm much more a fan of the prequels because of the Jedi and the abundance of them. After the disappointing Volume 1, this was a much better story. Luke Skywalker is so weak whines even more than Anakin and is never really a real Jedi. It introduces an extremely interesting Jedi named Master Fay, who is much too short lived. I know that tons of tons of Jedi die in the clone war, but it doesn't make it any easier when it does happen. Even though I was born in the mid 70's, the classic era isn't as interesting and the victories seem so far fetched, just like all the death of the Jedi seem in the Clone Wars. Anyway, both Asajj Ventress and Durge are present in this book for fans of those two characters.
This comic- excuse me, 'graphic novel' is part of one of my favorite series. We learn about their histories breifly, then a detailed acount of "how their histories ended" anyway, as a lame way to finish this, this is good. and General Grievous.
However, the slight flaws in the art disappear form your mind as you get wrapped up in the plot and the new characters- Durge (he's really cool, even though he's really evil) and Asajj Ventress (who isn't technically new because she appeared on Volume 1. Anyway, the first story is about the Seperatists bio-weapon, and the first Obi-Wan vs Ventress fight. The artwork is OK, but some of the characters look a little odd at certain angles.
At least Vol.1 had a lot of Mace in it. This was the first time she and Obi-Wan met) This one also interested me because Obi-Wan was the most featured character. Everyone mostly thinks about Anakin and his turn to the dark side, and not about the other important and interesting characters, like Mace Windu, Obi-Wan, Quinlan Vos, Darth Maul (yeah, he didn't last that long, but wasn't he cool anyway).
The second story is about Obi-Wan's mission to find the antidote to the weapon, and he teams up with four jedi legends to do it. Buy it with vol.1.
