Dec. 15 - Star Wars Empire #27
Luke Skywalker is a pilot for the Rebel Alliance and a Jedi-in-training, but when a Rebel intel team gets pinned down by an unexpected Imperial patrol Luke receives an unexpected promotion-to General! It's all part of Commander Narra's plan to enlist the aid of an unexpected ally that could turn the tables on the Imperials.
Dec. 22 - Star Wars: Tales #22
Two enemy soldiers accidentally left behind after Return of the Jedi's Battle of Endor must survive a tribe of disgruntled Ewoks and each other in "Marooned" by Lucas Marangon; and we kick off the issue with a tie-in to the highly anticipated LucasArts video game Republic Commando.

Anyone know where to buy back issues of comic books, or is it just pot luck... like who has what left over?
I got republic 71 today, and I realized I missed 70.
Also I looked all over for Clone Wars #5 but nobody even carries graphic novels around here... not even the big bookstores. The guy at HeroTown didn't even know what I was talking about, and that's a comic book store.
I finally ordered it from Amazon, but they say it'll ship on Dec 21st. Yuk, I have to wait!
Yes a Jedi should have patience... but I want my comic book gosh-darnit!

Oh, and Obsession is great! Cool how Anakin is the sensible one here, while Obi-Wan is acting like he's out for blood.

Hmmm... is there a Waldenbooks around you anywhere? They are pretty good at having the graphic novels in stock, even my lowly store 30 miles away from here.
Sorry I can't help you much with back issues. I am just starting to get into the comics myself. We have asmall bookstore/Hallmark card store near the JCP where I work and I used to go tehre and read all the comix while my Mom was getting her hair done. But now since she isn't here anymore, I don't get a chance to read them all.

No Waldenbooks... there used to be one in the mall near me but they closed when Borders came around the corner.
With back issues, it seems to be pot luck as to what they'll have... so far that's the way the the comic shops are around here. They always say, Nope, just what we have on the shelf. I guess I'll just need to make a list of what I'm missing and be on the lookout.
Thanks

Finally got Clone Wars 5... not much of a wait after all. It's pretty good, although I don't care for the artwork in the last story. Looks almost like anime, but I'm not sure if it is. I like anime mind you, but NOT for Star Wars.

Star Wars: Empire #33
“Sons” part 4 (of 5)
Writer: Scott Allie
Artist: Joe Corroney
Colorist: Michael Atiyeh
For the velociraptor-like inhabitants of Tiss’sharrl, assassination is a common method of corporate or political advancement—as the planet’s president can attest. But the Tiss’shar are about to get a surprising lesson in the use of force from one who has made the ruthless application of fear and violence a way of life: Darth Vader has dropped in for an unexpected visit.
Vader’s arrival could not have come at a worse time for the President, who is fending off attempts on his life—and business offers from a dangerous quarter. But even the President’s cool reptilian intellect can’t guess at the real reasons for Vader’s visit, or the depths at which the Dark Lord’s machinations run…
Writer Scott Allie (Star Wars: Betrayal) and Star Wars-fan-favorite artist Joe Corroney team up for “The Price of Power.”

Meanwhile Grievous, who is holding a group of young Padawans hostage, comes into conflict with Darth Tyrannus, who has his own plans for the young Jedi in training. But Grievous isn’t one to bend at the will of another even if that other is a Sith Lord!

“The Siege of Saleucami” (part 4 of 4)
The losses for the Republic—and the Jedi—in the Clone Wars have been staggering. And few battles have been as hard fought as the one on Saleucami. Here, the greatest military threat mounted by the Separatists has been encountered, the Republic’s greatest heroes have faltered, and the heart, mind, and motives of Jedi Master Quinlan Vos have been laid bare.
His secret dealings with Dooku exposed, and the depth to which he was manipulated revealed, Vos stands on a knife’s edge between the dark side and redemption!
This is the final issue of Republic before it is overtaken by the events in Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith. Not to be missed!
