NJOE.COM Interview Series.

Thursday, April 1st, 2010

I’ve finally answered all of the reader’s questions for an interview over at NJOE.com (sorry it took so long). These will be appearing on the NJOE.com every Wednesday (Thursday in Australia) for the next four weeks, leading up to the release of the Star Wars Invasion: Refugees collection. I was confused by this as I thought the trade was coming out on May 13. Luckily, the people over at NJOE.com are far more knowledgeable than me, and they’ve told me that the release date of Refugees has actually been moved forward and it will now be available on April 28th! Anyway, you can check out the first of the four part series interview right here.

Get your Vong on – April 28th.

Solicited – The Will Of Darth Vader AND Star Wars: Invasion – Rescues Part 2.

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

Two books.

Twice the eye-candy.

Jo’s Chen’s latest Invasion cover has been on high rotation as my desktop wallpaper for the last month. I love it. And, hey, the other one is Vader looking like a bad ass.

STAR WARS ADVENTURES: THE WILL OF DARTH VADER

Tom Taylor (W), Brain Koschak (P), Dan Parsons (I), Michael Wiggam (C), and Sean McNally (Cover)

Darth Vader is on a mission for the Emperor!

When the Rebellion’s hit-and-run attacks on Imperial cargo ships become too audacious to be ignored, Darth Vader is sent in to find the Rebel base and destroy it. But the base, hidden in the center of a constantly shifting asteroid field, cannot be attacked directly.

To reach his target, Vader will have to team up with a recently captured smuggler named Zika—and dealing with an unwilling, wisecracking partner may be more of a trial for the Dark Lord than the actual mission!

New and vital knowledge sends Finn Galfridian with Jacen and Jaina Solo on a mission to the planet of Artorias. Though Finn does not know if his father, Caled, lives, if there is any chance, he must be warned of new dangers. It’s a hot and dangerous ride to Artorias, and the occupying Yuuzhan Vong are ready with a toothsome, ravaging welcome . . .

Meanwhile, Kaye and Nina, board their newly acquired Vong ship, embark on their own mission. It’s one they can’t refuse: rescuing captives held on a dead planet. There is no telling what peril will meet the rescue party . . .

A Couple of Star Wars: Invasion #0 Reviews

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

A couple of reviews for Star Wars: Invasion #0 have appeared. Here they are.

From Undercover Fanboy…

“Star Wars: Invasion #0 does not disappoint. Writer Tom Taylor has done his research and brings new insight to established characters every issue. If you only pick up one Star Wars title a month – this is it…”

-undercoverfanboy.com

From NJOE…

“When TOS posted the first two-parts to the Invasion story I figured that Tom and Colin had told what they wanted to. Oh how wrong I was. In six extra pages we learn so much more about the series and it’s main heroes.”

-NJOE.com

Star Wars: Invasion #4 Reviews

Sunday, October 11th, 2009

The first reviews are coming in for Star Wars Invasion #4.

From Comic List…

“The artwork was outstanding. I enjoyed all of the details of Falcon. Whether it’s the interior or the exterior, the Falcon looks every bit the part of the original trilogy.”

“For those readers who are craving the original trilogy cast then this issue is for you. Not only do you get most of the key characters, but they don’t feel hollow. Their dialogue and actions seem worthy of the actions that took place in Return of the Jedi… 4 out of 5 geek goggles.”

-Comiclist.com

NJOE.com have a lot to say, with Kaye Galfridian getting a heap of love.

“Have I mentioned before that I love Kaye? I do, I really do. Everything about her just screams ‘Kick ass!!’”

“AND Tom totally nailed the interaction between Han and Leia!! That whole scene was heartbreakingly sad and humorous at the same time.”

-NJOE.com

From Undercover Fanboy…

“(A) Must buy for any Star Wars fans.”

-Undercoverfanboy.com

Also, there will be some big news tomorrow – stay tuned.
