4100 Years of Star Wars in Vector Crossover Comic

Sure , the six movies feature a clean tenacious storyline running across two different time periods , but Dark Horse Comics has decided to go two expert and give the world a Star Wars plot line that spans 4100 years in four different serial . Called Vector , the twelve - part story – beginning in this week ’s Star war : knight Of The Old Republic # 25 ( determine more than a millennium before the original picture show ) – promises to follow the lookup for a particularly grave Sith artifact across the entire chronicle of George Lucas ’s money - making enfranchisement , and we ’ve had a chance to take an early peek at the first chapter .

First off , ignore the ( cool - looking ) cover sport Darth Vader , Luke Skywalker and two other Jedi quick for natural action ; that scene happens only as psychical dreaming in the opening page of the al-Qur’an ( see below ) – the majority of this opener to the twelvemonth - long story is all about arrange the scene and premise readers to character reference and concepts that do n’t amount from the moving picture . Luckily for “ Expanded Universe ” Virgin like myself , it all follows well - known Lucas formulas middling well , include a annoying clowning chum for the submarine sandwich : consume the patch revolve around a prophecy make a lot of sense , considering the movies ’ reliance on prophecies about poise the force and all , but there ’s also an element of Indiana Jones in the way that our heroes are call for after an artefact that gets found by the bad hombre first . for sure , there are n’t any Sith to give us hot lightsaber action in this first part ( Replacement zombie - like aliens the Mandalorians feels a little too generic and dull , right now ) , but it all zips by fast enough for you not to worry : The dialogue is better than at least , oh , five of the movie – writer John Jackson Miller stupefy his derring - do on without the humorlessness of the last three motion picture – and the art strikes the correct preeminence of being cartoony but not distractingly so .

Dark Horse have sex what they ’re doing with their movie and goggle box comics – They ’re the ones behind Joss Whedon ’s awesome Buffy comics – and this is a pretty expert launching for what could be a fun fib for both Star Wars obsessive and those who just like reading about the great unwashed snap each other in space . After four issuance of Knights Of The Old Republic , the story crosses into fellow traveller title Dark Times ( set just after Revenge of the Sith ) for two issues , then original trilogy - geological era Rebellion for two , before ending in Star Wars : Legacy – starring the posterity of Luke , Leia and Han – at the end of the twelvemonth . If nothing else , you know you need to pick up the 1 with 1980s Empire Strikes Back - era jumpsuit Luke , right … ?
