STAR WARS: AGE OF REPUBLIC - VILLAINS

I'm really excited for this new comic series putting the focus on characters from all three trilogies. The first volume centers in on the villains from the prequels. I'm always up for new canon stories set in the prequel era.The first story follows Darth Maul prior to Episode I. I liked seeing Maul already sneaking around the dark underworld of Coruscant already forming shady connections. There's also references to Rebels and Malachor. 4/5.Next up is Jango Fett and his young clone of a son, Boba Fett. This short story shows a great look into their relationship. Bounty Hunter stories are always fun. 4/5Count Dooku is on a mission for his master, creating more disorder in the galaxy. I liked seeing a little into Dooku's past as a jedi. There's also a Tiger Jedi!?! 3/5The General Grievous story is my favorite in this volume. I really enjoyed seeing Grievous's original form. It's a really unique looking into his psyche. I also like the Jedi mysticism. 5/5The Special included in this volume focuses on Asajj Ventress. It's a pretty quick story and shows Ventress on the lower levels of Coruscant interacting with people on the streets. 3/5I really like collections like this. it's a great opportunity to show a glimpse into a character's life that we haven't seen before. I'm looking forward to the rest of this series, especially the sequel trilogy volumes since we know so little about the characters outside of the movies. I give this volume of prequel villains a 4/5.

There are five stories in this volume: Darth Maul, Jango and Boba Fett, Count Dooku, General Grevious and Asajj Ventress. I think the best stories were Darth Maul's and Count Dooku's. Jango's story was okay, but I'm biased because i think they wasted him since he's no longer a Mandalorian. Grevious' and Ventress' stories were definitely the weakest part of this collectio.Maul's story explores his growing impatience to strike at the Jedi.Count Dooku's is sent to Sullust to make connections with the underworld.Jango takes Boba on a job to teach him some valuable lessons.Greviuos locates a hidden Jedi temple.Ventress' story takes place immediately before she confonts Ahsoka.Overall, this is a good collection of short stories, but it does fall flat towards the end. Still an enjoyable read.

As a huge fan of the prequel era, I was very excited about this book. Some of my favorite villains all getting one-shots. The overall result... a fun read but a short one. I read this pretty quickly, as it is a very thin book. I would recommend to buy it, BUT only if it is below $10. I wouldn't pay more than $10 for this book.

I like that the short stories add more to the characters you know and love but at the same time I’m disappointed bc the stories are so short!

The stories are quite short and I did wish they were longer. Each villain has an interesting story and it adds to their character. Though in the end it doesn’t feel as satisfying as it could have been and you just crave for more. Still an interesting read. I still recommend it.

A nice mix of clone war villain perspectives! The comic does a great job of showing how grey Ventress was, and it really reflects her character development!

I feel if you enjoyed the clone wars you will definitely enjoy this book. My favorite of these stories were one of general Grevious and count dooku.

Great stories and added info on each character. Loved it

Great read for any star wars fan especially if they like the clone wars.It is also cannon aswell.

Exactly as described

La contraparte villana de la República es igualmente buena, llena de color, dibujos impresionantes e historias interesantes.

Si.soy fan.
