Star Wars: Splinter of the Mind’s Eye (1978) – Alan Dean Foster
Back in 1978, we had just one movie, and a handful of toys available from Kenner, not taking into account a ton of tees, trading cards, and almost anything else they could plaster the name Star Wars on. People were clamouring for more adventures from Luke Skywalker and the rest of the rebel alliance, but…
Star Wars: Rebels (2015) – The Siege of Lothal: Part 1, Part 2, and The Lost Commanders
Season Two of Rebels got underway on 20 June, 2015 with a two-part premiere, The Siege of Lothal. Part One shows the Ghost crew stepping into a larger world, as they become a part of the growing rebel alliance. They are assigned to Phoenix Squadron and the Inquisitor is no more. But Kanan (Freddie Prinze…
Star Wars: Rebels (2014) – Fighter Flight, Rise of the Old Masters, and Breaking Ranks
This week’s instalment of Rebels brings me the next three episodes in the first season and Fighter Flight is probably one of the weakest episodes of the series, while still remaining entertaining. Written by Kevin Hopps, this episode first debuted on 20 October, 2014. We’re still early in the series, and everyone is getting to…
Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2014) – The Lost One, Voices, Destiny, and Sacrifice
“What is lost is often found.” The final episodes of season six begin, and the season itself comes to a conclusion this week, as I continue my exploration of The Clone War. The final episodes of the season work very hard to tie the series in as completely with The Prequel Trilogy as they can,…
Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2012) – Escape From Kadavo, A Friend in Need, and Deception
“Great hope can come from small sacrifices.” Ahsoka Tano (Ashley Eckstein), Anakin Skywalker (Matt Lanter) and Obi-Wan Kenobi (James Arnold Taylor) are still prisoners if the Zygerrian slavers in Escape From Kadavo. Rex (Dee Bradley Baker) and Obi-Wan are put to work in the mines, while the queen (Raija Baroudi) continues to take an interest…
Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2011) – Ghosts of Mortis, The Citadel, and Counter Attack
“He who seeks to control fate shall never find peace.” Christian Taylor pens this episode that continues the Mortis story arc, that finds Obi-Wan Kenobi (James Arnold Taylor), Anakin Skywalker (Matt Lanter) and Ahsoka Tano (Ashley Eckstein) still trapped on the strange planet, with a family of powerful Force users. This episode first aired on…
Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008/2009/2010) – Cat and Mouse, Hidden Enemy, and The Movie
I’ve been trying to find a reason to give the Clone wars, and after I finished War of the Worlds I decided to scratch that itch. However, with this series I will not be watching them in broadcast order, but chronological order, as the first few seasons especially bounced back and forth through the Clone…
Star Wars Made Easy (2017) – Christian Blauvelt
DK Canada unleashes the Force with their playful and entertaining Star Wars Made Easy. Positioning itself as A Beginner’s Guide to a Galaxy Far, Far Away, for that rare person who has never seen any of the films, Vlauvelt’s book is a lot of fun, embracing the fun that is an inherent part of the…
Superman: The Animated Series (1997) – Brave New Metropolis, Monkey Fun and Ghost in the Machine
There are strange things afoot for Lois Lane (Dana Delaney) in Brave New Metropolis, the first episode up this week. Originally airing on 27 September, 1997, Lois is thrown into an alternate reality, where the bustling city is run by Superman (Tim Daly) and Lex Luthor (Clancy Brown), who do so with force and tyranny….
Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith (2005) – George Lucas
The Sci-Fi Chronicles brings me to the final entry in the Prequel Trilogy, and arguably the strongest despite some troubling moments. While still suffering from the too clean, too digital, green-screen EVERYTHING, this one feels the closest to a Star Wars movie, and that opening sequence through the space battle over Coruscant is highly…
Issues Vol. 4
It’s time for that weekly round-up from West End Comics, where Kirk stalwartly mans his post, a bastion of pop culture filled with fantastic images, colours, and inks. Let’s jump right into it this week’s pull list shall we? Low – Vol. 1 Delirium of Hope. Collecting the first 6 issues of this series written…
