MACE WINDU Mini Series Out This Week!
While it’s great reading the ongoing STAR WARS, DARTH VADER, DOCTOR APHRA, and POE DAMERON comic books, I really look forward to the 5-part mini-series books Marvel has been putting out. It’s a great way to explore all the different corners of the Star Wars galaxy and an excuse to jump around the timeline!
Whenever Marvel decides to explore prequel-era stories I get very excited. I’m a prequel sympathizer and think there are a lot of great stories to be told during this time featuring tons of great characters.
The newest Star Wars mini-series puts fan favorite Mace Windu front and center as he charges into battle during the start of the Clone Wars.
For over a thousand generations, the Jedi have been the peacekeepers of the galaxy…but now, at the dawn of the Clone Wars, they find themselves in a new role: generals in the Army of the Republic. As Mace Windu, one of the Jedi’s greatest warriors, leads a small unit of Jedi into battle shortly after the war begins, the Jedi must make peace with their new role, or be lost to the violence around them!
The Clone Wars was a fantastic cartoon and definitely had a premature end due to the Disney buyout. Comics are a great platform to tell more stories during this time, and Mace Windu is definitely someone I want to learn more about. And come on, anything revolving around Jedi is pretty darn cool.
My best advice to you is to get in on these Star Wars books from Marvel. I’ve read every one of them since Marvel reclaimed the franchise, and they’ve all been fantastic. It’s a good time to be a Star Wars fan.
