I Star Wars: Droids Omnibus a special appreciation for these sort of stories because they don't insist you change your view of the Star Wars universe, but rather try to not take it so seriously. It is most definitely the weaker of these two series for a few reasons. You can't really build interesting stories around two robots, one of whom speaks in robot noises that forms no discernible language anything R2 is saying is interpreted by 3PO's reactionthat don't really use weapons or anything. All the stories in this series with the exception of the last 3, which I'll talk about separately use C-3PO and R2-D2 with very little functions beyond what you saw in the movies no special, unused powers here and, for an 8 issue series, repeats itself in terms of plot points a lot. It should also be noted that 3PO treats R2 like a nagging wife that he can't live without, which is a huge failure in the writing department as the writer seemed to literally watch the Original Trilogy and just have 3PO constantly repeat things he said in those movies here without writing out much original stuff. It's not terrible by any means though with the exception of the last three issues because there it's just fun, it reminds you of those old cartoons that hypnotized you to eat sugary cereals. The artwork is Star Wars: Droids Omnibus by the way, I love how they went against the basic look for R2-D2 he's red and yellow for some reason I need to know why this is There is a fun story that crosses over with the EWOKS series too, but for some reason this volume separates them in order to keep the two series as Star Wars: Droids Omnibus whole so you have go to another part of the book. The title is a huge misnomer though because there are key scenes from STAR WARS included that in fact the droids were not and are not present for like when Alderaan is blown up or when the crew rescues Leia. It gets weirder read: worse because they go the other route and insert them into scenes they were never in to achieve the main purpose of this pointless story: to re-tell the story of STAR WARS in comic book form inalmost 10 years after the movie was in theaters keep in mind it had already been done in Marvel's STAR WARS series. The scenes where it's clearly not from the movie are really really bad. Like the droids Star Wars: Droids Omnibus into a underground cave on Tantooine and encountering a sort of dragon, hiding out in a store that sells stuff for Droids, or them having to maneuver between Vader and Kenobi as they are dueling on the Death Star no really It's all very uninspired and, I can't think of a better word here, lame and it's definitely the low point of this book. The 14 issues of it's run are included here and they tell various stories about the Ewoks before their homeworld was ravaged by civil war. There are three primary children Star Wars: Droids Omnibus Wicket, Teebo, and Princess Kneesaa who get into all Star Wars: Droids Omnibus of adventures involving with the exception of two comics that feature spaceships mostly fantasy type characters and creatures. All of that aside, it's a Star Wars: Droids Omnibus fun comic that actually seems to have some effort put into writing it and the artwork is lovely, very reminiscent of mid to late 80s cartoons. I'm quite surprised it didn't last longer actually. All of this is capped off with a very short coloring-book comic colorized here featuring the Ewoks that Golden Books put out that is just a comic book version of the scene where Han and Luke are carried Star Wars: Droids Omnibus the Ewok village to be cooked before 3PO saves them. I really, really like this collection and it's great that Dark Horse reprinted these comics to save them from obscurity. If you get a chance, read this collection and feel like a kid again for pages.

It brought back pleasant memories of the shows from my childhood. The crossover issue made no sense considering the events from Return of the Jedi, but whatever. I'm glad I rediscovered this. Dec 08, Jaime K rated it it Star Wars: Droids Omnibus ok. If I think of this as for children only, I can give it closer to a 3. Otherwise, it's a 1. Overall, the art isn't good. It's too rounded and while the colours of the backgrounds are good, the Star Wars: Droids Omnibus aren't. R2 is more white and pinkish than blue; the Ewoks aren't shades of tan and brown but also pink; the aliens are stereotypically green. The stories show some crazy adventures that R2 and 3PO could maybe have gotten into and that the Ewoks are used to defending their home. AND we see just how awesome R2 was even before his Star Wars: Droids Omnibus additions in the prequels. In the dialogue, there are too many Earth words and phrases "oh my gosh" being one of them for when the comics were developed s. The find an ancient robot series to save Jost's father and R2 comes to the rescue only to go haywire. The two droids go to a droid repair facility where 3PO saves the day. That, to me is quite dumb, as 3PO and R2 obviously don't remember that event. The story is resolved in Ewoks I had some more issues with this "trilogy. That was one of the stupidest things I have seen. I think even children would be irate with that. This was a great show of how girls can be strong leaders. I just think it's very confusing that the space pirates and Ewoks can understand each other. It was nice to see Kneesaa working with her father, Chief Chirpa. This is another one where I don't understand how the Ewoks and in this Star Wars: Droids Omnibus the sea creatures understand each other. He also proves his compassion for others. Things go wrong and slavers try to control the Ewoks, causing Teebo to save them. Sep 20, Fizzgig76 rated it it was ok Shelves: graphic-novels-and-trade-paperbacks. Reprints Droids and Ewoks May July R2-D2 and C-3PO find themselves travelling the universe. In an effort to find new masters, R2-D2 and C-3PO find themselves battling gunrunners, political coups, and other robots.

Droids ran from April June and Ewoks ran May Julyand both series were based on the Saturday morning Star Wars spinoff cartoons which aired from September 7, December The collection was also rereleased by Marvel when Marvel regained the rights to Star Wars. Fans devoured the series, but also knew that the series was ending…leading to a drop off in merchandise.
