It's allllll comics today. Hopefully we don't get burnt out. I'm also realizing my opinions of comics change so much as I talk about them. I feel like compared to movies, video games, novels, music, anything else, I can get a solid opinion on my own, but comics are so nebulous in my mind and require a second like critical pass before I can make up my mind. Anyone else? Anyway... Enjoy the episode.

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?

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...

The fellas dive into the world of late 80's Star Wars gaming. This is definitely an era where the table-top has a lot more to offer us than the digital world. Since the fellas are sick of Ewoks, it felt good to get fully away from Ewok content and not talk about them at all. Also remember when Vader turned into a scorpion?

Content Covered:
- Video Game: Star Wars (1987)
- Board Games: The Roleplaying Game, Assault on Hoth

Next Time:
- Book: Heir to the Empire!!!
- Board Games: Escape from the Death Star, Lightsaber Dueling Kit

Finally the end of these droids and Ewoks for now. Testing the limits of Star Wars patience here. I know some people have a fond place in their heart for this Ewoks movie, but spoiler alert... We didn't love it. I'd recommend anyone who hasn't watched this content just listen to us talk about it instead.

Content Covered:

- TV Movie: Ewoks: The Battle for Endor (1985)
- TV Special: Droids: The Great Heep

Next Time:
