    Continuing the Tales of the Jedi, 2002-09-21 This is a great story, but you must read the previous Tales first, culminating in the Sith War, or you will be lost as to what has gone on. It is set 10 years later, and we see Ulic in a different light as he reluctantly becomes teacher to Nomi Sunrider. I often wondered what happened to the characters after the Sith War, and this story answers most of my questions. It has elements we expect in all SW stories, action and excitement, and a brooding undercurrent. A good ending too, and my only gripe is we have had to wait several years for it. Don't make us wait too long for the next installment.

    A Great Start To A Great Series, 2000-05-31 At first I was a bit wary about reading about characters in the Galaxy Far Far Away 5000 years before the ones we all know and love. However, this was an excellent story and the art is excellent too.

    Dark Empire Rocks, 2008-09-16 This for me was what got me into comic books. I first collected the Dark Empire series when it was originally released back in 1991-1992. It blew me away than and it continues to do so today.
To me this (and it's successors Dark Empire II and Empire's End) should have been the next true chapters in the Star Wars universe. From the Emperor's rebirth, Luke's decent into the dark side, Bob Fett's reappearance and Leia's emergence as a Jedi this book has it all (sorry if I've spoilt it for you). I love it and could read it over and over again.
Plus as the added bonus it's illustrated by Cam Kennedy. Now I never pay attention of who pens or pencils comics, but Cam's work is so beautiful and unique that it gives the story a dark and gritty feel. If you love Star Wars I fail to see how you couldn't love this.

    The final death of the evil Emperor and hurrah at that!, 2000-09-17 Several years after 'Return of the Jedi', the Emperor has been cloned an rules once again.This is the stunning conclusion to the 'Dark Empire' series and I loved it! It captures the feel of the films; with the Rebels barely surviving but triumphing against all odds. There are the two truly essential Star Wars scenes: A lightsabre duel (several in fact) and a space battle (the latter containing a ship twice as long as Darth Vader's Super Star Destroyer). Keep you eyes peel for Jedi Knights left-right-and-centre! (Including 1 year old Anakin Solo)

    A pretty darn good book, 2005-11-04 This interesting book is part of the Knights of the Old Republic series. The series is a collection of graphic novels that takes the reader to the Old Republic, thousands of years before the events of The Phantom Menace. This graphic novel contains two stories. The first one is Ulic Qel-Droma and the Beast Wars of Onderon, in which a young Jedi learns that a Jedi must have more than courage - he must have patience and perception. The second story is the Sage of Nomi Sunrider, in which a Jedi apprentice, who has rejected violence, learns that to defeat evil violence is too often unavoidable. My twelve-year-old son is a big Star Wars fan, and he picked up this book so that he could keep on learning about the Star Wars universe. Overall, we found this to be a pretty darn good book. The illustration work is very good, and the stories are quite interesting. We enjoyed the action and the many different creatures and races that are the hallmark of Star Wars. Yep, we both enjoyed this book, and highly recommend it to you.

    Not as good as the first one, but I still liked it., 2004-11-06 THE STORY: Six years after 'Return of the Jedi', the Empire's Dark Jedi are continuing the war against the New Republic when Emperor Palpatine is revived in a new clone body, with plans to use a new superweapon, the Galaxy Gun, to win final victory. Meanwhile Lando and Wedge lead a covert mission to Byss and the Skywalker/Solo clan begins the resurrection of the Jedi Order.WHAT'S GOOD: I liked the way in which Luke and Leia begin to renew the Jedi, gathering together a motley assortment of Force-users; a Jedi-turned-hobo, a Knight all but destroyed by Darth Vader, a former Dark Jedi and two youths from a primitive culture. I also enjoyed the portrayal of the Imperial Dark Jedi, showing them to be arrogant and power-hungry, yet ultimately ineffectual. Cam Kennedy's atmospheric art lives up to the 'Dark' of the title too. People who've read the 'Tales of the Jedi' comics might be interested in finding out what happens to Jedi Master Ood Bnar when he finally awakens from his slumber. We also see the return of Boba Fett, once more, but the tragic destruction of Slave I. For fans of the franchise this book is the essential link between 'Dark Empire' and the Jedi Academy trilogy. WHAT'S BAD: As a previous reviewer mentioned, they could have gone to a bit of effort over the name of this book/series; I mean, even the cheesiest sequels have a subtitle (often 'The Revenge'). I wasn't struck on the Galaxy Gun either. I mean, first off it's a bit hard to believe that the Empire can keep churning out superweapon after superweapon and still lose the war. Plus, it's not even a good superweapon; give me a Death Star any day of the week. Finally, although I liked the Dark Jedi in general, the fact remains that (apart from Sedriss), they all look, act and speak the same, making them impossible to tell apart.
