Mynock Manor Suggest Count Dooku Expanded Content 1

Staying at hotels, B&Bs, and even Airbnb’s there are often concierge services available about what to see and do in the area you’re visiting, so we’ve opened the concierge desk at the Manor to offer suggestions on what to read, watch, and enjoy when wanting to find out more about your favorite Star Wars characters now that you have the free time to do so! The prequels were full of villains, many easy to see from a parsec away, but one who could hide in plain sight, and look quite dashing while doing so (even in pjs), was none other than the luxurious Count Dooku! While a key component in Darth Sidious’ plans, Dooku wasn’t always a dashing looking Sith and Separatist leader, he was once even a Jedi! If you’ve ever wondered how he went from Jedi, to Count, to Sith Lord, then read on for a breakdown on what exciting tales explore the Count’s varied careers!

Canon Comic Review: Darth Maul: Son of Dathomir #4

Son of Dathomir #4

– Spoiler Review –

We have reached the end. Darth Maul: Son of Dathomir is part of the end of the Dark Horse era of Star Wars comics and this is its final issue. It’s also a look at Darth Maul’s possibly final arc from The Clone Wars and his fate, along with Mother Talzin’s, hangs in the balance as Darth Sidious descends upon his former apprentice and old confidante to settle things once and for all. It’s interesting to note that, while settling a number of hanging story threads, this series ends with almost as many questions as it had when it started. However, these questions, combined with #4 still being a great read, gives the Son of Dathomir series quite the send-off.

Dealing with the repercussions of his failure, Dooku must try his best to be civil with his captor Darth Maul, while the Jedi get involved when word comes down Sith were part of the Ord Mantell battle. While Darth Maul: Son of Dathomir #3 doesn’t have as many payoffs as the last issue, it certainly sets the stage for an explosive finale.

Son of Dathomir #2

 – Spoiler Review –

With the first issue setting up lots of potential big moments with characters The Clone Wars either breathed new life into or brought to everyone’s attention, it falls on the second issue to pay some of the setup off while continuing to move the plot along. For Darth Maul: Son of Dathomir #2, it has payoffs in spades and even bigger setups than I could’ve possibly imagined. It definitely makes me wish even more so that these episodes of The Clone Wars got to be part of the ‘Lost Missions’ (Season 6), but I’m just immensely happy we’re seeing it in one form or another.

Son of Dathomir #1

– Spoiler Review –

It’s still a bit of a shock that we originally left Maul separated in two pieces lying at the bottom of some seemingly endless shaft on Naboo to suddenly watching him wreak havoc on the galaxy in The Clone Wars. It was even more shocking when TCW was cancelled and somehow his fate continued to be up in the air. Thankfully, someone had the good sense to adapt his unaired/unproduced final arc in TCW into a limited comic series. And while the first issue isn’t grand, it is thrilling and certainly feels like an episode of the show. Continue reading “Canon Comic Review: Darth Maul: Son of Dathomir #1”
