At the time of this comic's publication there is no buildup to anything going on, so the idea of Jedi recruiting prepubescent children in this is nonsense.
I get that this is a troubling time in galactic history but it took the EU years to flesh this out. The next, he's hacking down Sith soldiers, one even armed with a lightsaber.Īnd finally, the Jedi in general don't act like Jedi at all. At one point he gets swatted aside by a cook. His attitude made me want to smack him so many times, and his arc is an eye rollingly overdone rehash of so many different Jedi characters from the EU, particularly the Old Republic era. Bug and Rain are bland kids who happen to have the force.Īnd by kriffing goodness, Tomcat annoyed the living crap out of me. Githany and Kaan are one dimensional Sith baddies. Most of the characters are quite bland and one note. This, along with some very gruesome panels, gives me the sense that this material felt way to lighthearted for a story that is actually very grim and bleak. The comic is told as this whimsical adventure yet it focuses on three kids being recruited into an army.
And in the middle of it all it jumps to too many different points of view. The comic doesn't seem to know if it wants to focus on the three children or the rise of Darth Bane. THE BAD: this one is a mess on many levels. They are sent to Ruusaan, right into the thick of battle. Three kids are recruited into the army of light, lead by a Jedi named Lord Hoth. THE STORY: its a millenium before the Skywalker saga, and the Jedi and the Sith are at each other's throats. This came out before Karpyshyns novel, and he had to work around the lore established in Jedi vs Sith. However, after this comic, I'm starting to feel like I may have been too harsh. Despite its insane levels of praise, I had a ton of problems with it, including the worldbuiling. I remember being incredibly disappointed by Darth Bane: Path of Destruction. However, the first source to tell the story of his rise actually comes from the comic we will be looking at today: Jedi vs Sith! This came out before When people think of the rise of Darth Bane, they point to Drew Karpyshyn's Darth Bane Trilogy.
