   Your Name to All   
   [News] The Clone Wars to get comic book    
   11 Jan 14 18:39:29   
   
   XPost: alt.fan.starwars   
   From: YourName@YourISP.com   
      
   Reportedly the unaired episodes of "The Clone Wars" series will be   
   released as a comic book (possibly in addition to other formats). This   
   is from Newsarama (via ComingSoon.net) ...   
      
        The ending of Star Wars' Clone Wars is shrouded in   
        mystery, both in-story and in real life. In March   
        2013 Lucasfilm announced that the long-running   
        animated series "Star Wars: The Clone Wars" would   
        be cut short, robbing fans of the intended finale   
        of that CGI series. Since then, various personnel   
        at Lucasfilm have talked about potential outlets   
        the final episodes' story could be told, either as   
        televised episodes, online content, or possibly a   
        DVD release. But now in an exclusive to Newsarama,   
        Lucasfilm has told us the finale to "Star Wars:   
        The Clone Wars" is being told as a comic launching   
        this May. This doesn't preclude the fully produced   
        episodes from still airing somehow, but does let   
        fans jump right to the ending and the unproduced   
        final arc.   
      
        In this last year of Lucasfilm's epic decades-long   
        partnership with Dark Horse Comics, the   
        Oregon-based publisher will be releasing a   
        four-part limited series titled "Darth Maul: Son   
        of Dathomir" that will adapt the screenplays for   
        what would have been the series finale of "Star   
        Wars: The Clone Wars" animated series. Written by   
        seasoned Star Wars comics scribe (and former   
        editor) Jeremy Barlow with an artist to be   
        announced, "Darth Maul: Son of Dathomir" sees the   
        full-scale return of Darth Maul to the Star Wars   
        universe and into a head-to-head battle with his   
        former master Darth Sidious ­ aka, the Emperor.   
        Barlow promises to fully delve into the world of   
        Dathomir, as well as some of its inhabitants like   
        Nightbrothers and even a new character called   
        Brother Viscus. Barlow spoke exclusively to   
        Newsarama in our "Galaxy Far Away" Star Wars   
        column.
