Some may say Yoda and Obi-Wan made a mistake by giving up on Anakin Skywalker, that if they’d just tried a little harder, maybe he could’ve been saved before Luke came along. But if you have gone through the comic Darth Vader: Cry of Shadows, you will start to see why walking away wasn’t the …

You probably noticed it if you’ve been into The High Republic stuff and then jumped back into The Clone Wars: yellow lightsabers were everywhere during the High Republic, but almost completely gone by the time of the Clone Wars. Except for a few Temple Guards, we don’t really see them at all. Meanwhile, in the …
Growing up watching Star Wars, I thought the Empire was just the bad guys with cool ships and scary music. Then I got older, and started reading more, watching the shows, digging through the side stories – and yeah, it hit different. There’s a pattern to how the Empire handled anyone they couldn’t control. Let …
Twi’leks are one of the most iconic species in Star Wars, known for their graceful movements, colorful skin, and signature head-tails. But as more Twi’leks have appeared on-screen and in books, fans have noticed big differences in how they look.

George R.R. Martin doesn’t post long essays when he blogs, but he doesn’t need to. In just a few paragraphs, he managed to call Andor the best Star Wars spinoff to date. That short, simple line from the creator of A Song of Ice and Fire got fans buzzing. And frankly, it deserves a closer …
The Jedi Council included some of the most powerful Force users in the galaxy, from Yoda and Mace Windu to Obi-Wan Kenobi and Kit Fisto. After the fall of the Jedi Order, the Empire brought in a new group to hunt down survivors: the Inquisitors. They had red lightsabers, dark side powers, and Darth Vader …
There’s this one story where Grievous goes looking for Jedi secrets and ends up getting absolutely wrecked – by the Force itself. No lightsaber fight, no epic duel.
