Am I not hallucinating? Am I actually watching a well-voiced, properly themed decent Star Wars comic come to live, and with the pro-elite Imperial Red Guards of sorts as main characters for a change that are not blow-out candle sticks but bring honour to the name "Imperial Guard"!? ...I am speechlessly amused!

@@drakeevans8042 Hell, yeah. "Opinion." Ahahaha. The Mandalorian and Book of Boba Fett are done by people mentored by Lucas and so, understand the SW universe. The mediocre people doing the failed junk almost no one watches, reads just don't get it. The issue is that younger fans don't know these excellent stories exist, so think they don't have choices beyond what's given to them. Hopefully, they'll find these stories and force Disney to do better with the franchise

Funny you should mention that. Look up a guy called WilkinsAnimatiins. He's making his own animation of Dark Empire. Currently working on Episode 2. Kinda Hanna-Barbera in quality and style, but pretty good. Though, once again, the audio book is used.

Why couldn't we have gotten a trilogy similar to this instead of TFA and the Last Jedi? This is so much more interesting and loyal to Star Wars. It enriches the already established lore so much better. Finding out about the Royal Guard training, Vader and Palpatine's methods, and a unique post-OT war that doesn't just re-establish the same 'ol shit as before,

[@OrlandoHofmann-qt7mx]

Lucas was a fool anyways to sell out to Disney - he allready had enough money for a 100 lifes to live... But I think he was afraid to be the one to disappoint fans & let others be the target, after the prequels were not that good In reality they look even more Disney like than the sequels The only problem with the sequels are the new characters they gave too much of focus/screentime & that they depicted Luke as a total bitter goof...Kylo Ren of course was a total fail-cast...he looked like a little sissy rather than a cruel powerfull guy to fear of...in fact he looks like a guy that goes down on his knees, starting to cry after bit$-slapping him... Rey looks hot, but thats all - she doesn't bring the right vibes...& she feels like very arrogant & like a rebellious girl during puberty - the opposite of a young lady learning & connecting with the force that fast...and she's besides Yoda & Obi Wahn the first one who never got seriously harmed, like cut off limbs or left with deep scars...

Clay Firenza: He didn't reword it as far as I know. He used the audio drama as the core and then animated the comic books and parts of games to create the visuals.

I remember seeing the Royal Guards in Return of The Jedi and thought they were so lackluster or why they were never seen doing anything. Then I picked up issues of this mini-series.

I still wonder to this day how Crimson Empire III would've turned out and if Kir Kanos would've met his end by Luke Skywalker's hand, but CE III never came to be sadly. Also lets be real for a sec: I believe, IIRC, Crimson Empire II was the *FIRST* forshadowing of the Yuuzhan Vong as the one villain of Crimson Empire II, Xandel Carivus was taking advise from flipping Nom Anor *of* the Yuuzhan Vong. Loved Crimson Empire.
