Clone Wars Comic
To prepare for this Friday’s episode of “Star Wars: Clone Wars” tv show, there has been a new comic released on the official Star Wars website. You can see the comic here with art work provided by Grant Gould.
This week’s episode seems to be a continuation of last week. Titled “Shadow of Malevolence” the episode centers around Anakin and his Padawan Ahsoka along with Jedi Master Plo Koon. They utilizes some untested long-range Y-wing bombers to lead a bold strike on General Grievous’ warship the Malevolence and its destructive weapon. One of the interesting things to note is that these ARE the Y-wing fighters that we see in the original Star Wars movies with a slight difference. In the original movies the rebel alliance was scrapping together any parts they could to assemble a fleet for the attack on the Death Star. The ships that they had reflected that in the way that their engines were exposed. These are the brand new model Y-wing fighters.

Wow, that’s really cool. I hadn’t even noticed. I should pay more attention the next time I watch that episode. I’m really digging the series so far.
Hmmm, reading again I realised – you’e talking about the comic. Were the ships in the TV episode as well?
The comic is leading up to the NEW cartoon that will be shown on Friday the 11th.
