Forces of Destiny A Disarming Lesson 5

As a special Star Wars Day 2018 present, the second half of episodes from Forces of Destiny‘s second season have arrived (announced the day before). Since there are usually eight, and this time only seven dropped, the remaining episode might be hiding in the TV special airing May 25 aka the same day as that little indie movie Solo: A Star Wars Story hits our galaxy, so maybe there’s a Qi’ra and Han episode on the way? In the meantime, check out the newest episodes below, along with a few quick thoughts. Full review of the second season to follow the TV special.

Forces of Destiny Traps and Tribulations 5

Take a break from shopping the best deals online, watching one of the movies/tv shows, or swinging lightsabers at one another this May the Fourth 2018, and hunker down for the best gift of all: new Star Wars! Forces of Destiny‘s second season airs 7 new episodes on 5/4/2018 over at Disney’s YouTube channel, with a TV special to air on the Disney Channel May 25! Normally the TV specials are the 16 episodes of a season in one half hour block with Maz Kanata narrating, but there’s still one episode unannounced for season 2 and a certain new film, Solo: A Star Wars Story, drops the same day, so maybe the unknown 8th episode will tie into the film somehow? While we wait to find out, check out the episode descriptions for the latest batch and some choice screenshots below! (UPDATE: The new episodes have arrived!)

Canon Comic Review: Star Wars Adventures – Forces of Destiny (#1-5)

Elsa Charretier Variant Covers

When it was first announced the younger marketed Star Wars Adventures comics from IDW would have a Forces of Destiny tie-in miniseries, a show itself great for the same audience the comic reached, it felt like a match made in Cloud City. Now that all five issues of the female-centric miniseries have released, all written by female creatives, I can honestly say it belongs among the clouds, despite a few minor missteps that won’t really matter to core readers of the event series.

Forces of Destiny Season One Review

Posted on by Head Butler Ryan

Forces of Destiny Vol 1 and 2

The Forces of Destiny animated shorts, 2-3 minutes in length, are aimed at honoring the female heroines of the GFFA, released as two TV specials in the month of October, with more on the way next year. I’ll be going over the initial 16 episodes here, which include adventures with Princess Leia, Rey, Sabine Wren, Hera Syndulla, Ahsoka Tano, and many more, discussing why it’s easy to ignore their (literal) shortcomings and enjoy them as fun little stories with good moral kernels to devour, mainly for those way younger than this late-twenties year old.
