Thank you jellymoff! You just made my day. I have been over the moon ever since this new series was announced at Comic-Con, as the New Jedi Order era of Star Wars is my absolutely favorite era in the 'verse. The early art we have been shown has been incredible, and now to learn that Chen is doing covers for the series makes me all the more excited. And that first cover...wow! Thanks again! *karma*

Jo Chen is the definition of the word 'talent'. Give her a seres to draw for and her covers come out amazing. Buffy, Serenity, Batman, Star Wars...fantastic work!

Thanks for posting! That was great. I can't tell you how excited about this series I am. The New Jedi Order era is so awesome, so I am thrilled we are going back to it. Here are Jo's covers for issues 2 and 3: And a preview comic (Issue 0): Click HerePlus it comes out the same day as Buffy Season 8 (first Wednesday of every month), so that's awesome. Sooooooo excited for this.

Read the first issue and liked it. I'm not that familiar with other stories from this era, so I wondering if I'm missing some stuff. I think it is going to get more interesting, and heck, I'll get it just for Jo's covers!

I really enjoyed the issue. While I have read the 19 novel series that this era is based on, it seemed like the writer did a nice job introducing the Yuuzhan Vong to potentially new readers. The main character is entirely new, which is good. So as he learns stuff, new readers will as well. The issue had quite a few surprises, which I liked (Kaye Galfridian killing the Vong warrior, Luke showing up and being badass, the Galfridian's being royalty). Really digging both the writer and artist too.

I'm starting to really get in to this series now, after reading issue 2. I feel like it is all starting to come together. The issue left me excited to see what will happen next! It's cool to see Luke activly in the Jedi Master role, teaching others the way he was taught.

I agree, I loved the new issue. It was really awesome to see Jacen, Jaina and Anakin Solo (and Lowbacca!) pop up so soon. They are some of my favorite Star Wars characters (well Jacen is definitely my favorite, then Luke). Finn and his mom and sister are already great characters and I am really loving the art.

Riddle me this... (and you may have no idea)
Is there any signifigance to the "bacca" in "Lowbacca"? Is he related to Chewbacca or is that just a common part of many wookies name?
