Same here. The US is way too blue. It kind of blinds you. Tempest though, awesome cover!

The US one has too much blue, I like the more realistic hues on the UK one.

I know I'm really, really beating a dead equus here, but...

*Tasty Taste*! Is there any chance I could get confirmation from you that each NJO hardcover takes place at the beginning of the calendar year, thus placing The Unifying Force at 29 ABY? I'm trying to get it changed from 30 ABY at Wookieepedia...

Also, out of curiosity --- the timeline in Bloodlines simply says "25 years after A New Hope" for the NJO, rather than the usual 25-30. Was this an intentional correction?

A question for Sue: amazon.co.uk gives this cover for LotF #4: Exile, whereas Jason Felix's website and the news on starwars.com show this one.

So, could you tell us which one we'll see on the book?

Haha, awesome edit. :)

My biggest worry is that with all the delaying, fans will lose interest in Rebellion. Even if it's delayed a year, I'll personally forgive it for the breathtaking artwork that tells a story in itself, but I might be alone there.

Well, being a fan of DH since Dark Empire # 1, I guess I am used to the reshuffling of release-dates (which is a good excuse to update my website frequently :) ), but as long as they deliver good and quality products, I 'forgive' them for this. I do not really like rushed jobs just to get things finished on time, and I do hate it when they call in another artist to make a deadline... But with Rebellion # 5, I can understand the frustration as it has been a while since # 4 appeared... (July 19 to be exact)...

But I guess we are straying off-topic. The only reason I reacted immediately to your post is that I do not want other people to believe that Rebellion # 5 (or the complete mini-series) was cancelled...

edit: hey, we both joined in the same month!! :)

Yes, I knew it wasn't really cancelled. I was being fatecious. However, Rebellion #5, which was supposed to be out on Aug. 9, has AGAIN been pushed back from Nov. 29 to Dec. 6. Also, Dark Times #2 and on are pushed back a month. Legacy #6 was pushed back another week, etc. etc. This seems to be a problem with DH. Most like the final product, once it finally comes out, but are getting irritated by the constant delays.

They did not cancel Rebellion at all...

  1. 5 will come out later this month. which will conclude the FIRST story-arc of Rebellion. Next up is the first story-arc of Dark Times, and when that is completed, we willl get another Rebellion story-arc, and so on and so on...

here's a piece from Randy Stradley's latest "From the Editor" (Nov. 20):

Of course, you'll continue to see the release of our new ongoing titles: Knights of the Old Republic (set 4000 years before the events in Episode IV: A New Hope), Rebellion (set in the months following A New Hope) and Legacy, (set nearly 140 years after A New Hope). And we'll be collecting these stories in trade form along the way in: Knights of the Old Republic--Commencement Vol. 1 , Rebellion--My Brother My Enemy Vol. 1, and Legacy--Broken Vol. 1.

For the full version, see here

Dark Horse does it again! Why don't they just tell us the truth...they've cancelled Rebellion and we're never gonna get issue #5 of 5?

VIP's, is there anything that can be done about this problem from a licensing angle?

When I got Betrayal a week early, and posted the link to an angelfire page showing photos with me and the book, and a scan of my receipt, posters at theforce.net were like "You pay $40 for hardcovers?!"

Haha, I actually remember that! :p

Sue,
3 questions. When will the EG to planets and moons come out? Dark Horse Omnibus #3 - when is it coming and what will it contain? I know it will be X-Wing but will it finish the series?
Thanks
Wari
