But just because the set is out, that doesn't mean that our previews have to stop! Today, we take a closer look at Darth Krayt and Kyle Katarn, Jedi Battlemaster. Darth Krayt Darth Krayt is the new Emperor of the resurgent Empire in the Star Wars: Legacy comic book series. He created a new Sith order by abandoning the centuries-old Rule of Two. His seizure of the Imperial throne was not a complete success; the previous Emperor survived the takeover, as did a number of Jedi Knights. However, Darth Krayt is far older than anyone suspects, and he suffers from an insidious ailment that threatens to consume him. He's in dire need of powerful healing. As such, he's obsessed with pursuing and turning Cade Skywalker to the dark side because the young man poss esses a unique gift that might heal the Dark Lord.

Digital Commons @ ACU, Electronic Theses and Dissertations. Paper 91. This Thesis is brought to you for free and open access by the Electronic Theses and Dissertations at Digital Commons @ ACU. It has been accepted for inclusion in Electronic Theses and Dissertations by an authorized administrator of Digital Commons @ ACU. ABSTRACT Mythic narratives exert a powerful influence over societies, and few mythic narratives carry as much weight in modern culture as the Star Wars franchise. Disney’s 2012 purchase of Lucasfilm opened the door for new films in the franchise. 2016’s Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, the second of these films, takes place in the fictional hours and minutes leading up to the events portrayed in 1977’s Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope. Changes to the fundamental myths underpinning the Star Wars narrative and the unique connection between these film have created important implications for the public memory of the original film. I examine these changes using Campbell’s hero’s journey and Lawrence and Jewett’s American monomyth. In this thesis I argue that Rogue One: A Star Wars Story was likely conceived as a means of updating the public memory of the original 1977 film.

Super Nintendo. But pure nostalgia and our memories of unfathomable Star Wars Epic Battles rage carves this game into a special place in our heart. Super Star Wars and Super Return of the Jedi are also great, but there's just something special about riding a Tauntaun. While TIE Fighter could never exist with 's Star Wars Epic Battlesthis game holds our attention because it gives us a look at Star Wars Epic Battles inner workings of the empire—one of the first games to ever do so. While making small improvements over its predecessor, TIE Fighter is a game we find ourselves returning to more than 20 years later. Think Doombut Star Wars. The Star Wars Epic Battles introduces Kyle Katarn, which is perhaps its greatest feat as the character went on to become beloved in expanded universe circles. But Dark Forces was also a damn entertaining first-person shooter, even if Republic Commando would go on to do it better. A weird duck in the world of Star Wars games, Shadows of the Empire follows Dash Star Wars Epic Battles and contains many different types of games in one. While it's mostly a third-person shooter, in Shadows, players also fly around in snow speeders and swoop bikes. Based on a series of books, Shadows of the Empire was one of the first games on Nintendo 64and developers were still finding their feet when exploring 3D worlds.

  • FATE of the JEDI DRAMATIS PERSONAE the Saga Continues
    ® FATE OF THE JEDI DRAMATIS PERSONAE The Saga Continues... For over three decades, the Star Wars universe has been expanding. New drama, new adventures, and new revelations have played out in the pages of bestselling Star Wars novels. Now, a new nine-book series is set to begin. It takes place almost 40 years after the end of Return of the Jedi. The clas- sic characters of the Star Wars saga are now living legends, starring alongside a new generation of heroes in their endless struggle to bring peace to a beleaguered galaxy. This is the start of The Fate of the Jedi. This brief guide serves as an introduction to this bold new era of Star Wars storytelling for those who have never read a Star Wars novel before or just need a refresher on the current standing of the characters and worlds of the galaxy far, far away…. The State of the Galaxy The Clone Wars are distant history. The Galactic Civil War between the Empire and the Rebel Alliance is a fading memory. In the four decades that followed the deaths of Darth Vader and the evil Emperor, the galaxy has known only a few scant stretches of peaceful times. The Rebel Alliance transformed from a revolutionary military force to a legitimate government—The New Republic—in a long process as it liberated worlds from the iron grip of the Empire. The Senate was restored. Luke Skywalker rebuilt the Jedi Order. Then, the Yuuzhan Vong came. A violent species of alien invaders, they destroyed entire worlds in their quest to conquer the galaxy.
