  • 14. 1993! Tales of the Jedi - Dark Horse Comic Mini-Series
    Nov 5 2024

    Jackson gives Ryan his first glimpse of what is known colloquially as "The Old Republic". These are the origins created by Tom Veitch that will go on to inspire many more stories. Here we analyze the questionably morality of Jedi Master Thon and the teaching methods Jedi Masters seem to enjoy using. Also, will Jackson be able to stop thinking about Nomi Sunrider's outfit enough to focus on the episode?

  • 13. 1991! Dark Empire and the NES
    Oct 29 2024

    Ryan and Jackson finally reach the end of the pretty much entirely skippable Star Wars video games, and the beginning of non-skippable comic books. Dark Horse takes the reigns with Tom Veitch and Cam Kennedy's Dark Empire story. Is this a better vision for the post Return of the Jedi Star Wars world than what Zhan had invented? Spoilers... We don't think so...

    Content Covered:
    - Comics: Dark Empire (Issues 1-6)
    - Video Games: Star Wars (1991 NES), The Empire Strikes Back (1991 NES)
