 Jedi Falling September 17, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The writers of this series are following closely the stories of the video games. Not in continuety but in spirit. You can clearly see how the old Jedi Masters abandon and virually disown the war-effort against the brutal Mandalorians and thus condemn the younger knights. I felt that it was THIS that created the new wave of Sith Lords later on. The beleagered young Jedi had to suffer too much without guidance. Then they became powerdrunk and despised their old masters, who had sat out most of the war and all their suffering. Of course they would fall for the Dark Side. Why wouldn't they when half of their old masters already REEK of the Dark Side?
 Great Collection; Great Art July 27, 2007
i am really loving this series. its a pretty straightforward storyline without too many mysteries, but with enough intrigue and backstory. the flash-backs are easy to follow--too many times in comics its hard to tell where they start and stop. the art is pretty consistent throughout--both pencils and ink really give the characters, well, more character.
rohlan is a great mandalorian, one i hope hasbro considers making.
zayne is a very believable jedi--probably alot like most jedi out there, instead of the super-hero jedi we're used to.
gryph has to be my favorite. he is just enough comic relief without being over the top (unlike the ithorians, but they're not major players). he has great expressions and is easily likeable, but very shady as well.
the best page is where the mandalorians are landing (when gryph exclaims "the mandalorians are attacking...for real). its a gorgeous spread.
i highly suggest picking this, as well commencement up (which i agree does start slow), but it can't all be rising action/climax, can it?
Another Fine Collection From Dark Horse July 22, 2007
Dark Horse continues their tradition of non-Heroes of Yavin stories with another good entry. Zayne is a different breed of Jedi from the typical mold, neither all-powerful or traditional. Great action, great artwork, and a great concept.
2 nicely drawn stories July 18, 2007
Flashpoint uses some tried and true storylines, but the art is very nice and the dialogue is decent. A worthwhile read. I'm working my way through it a second time. Zayne's growing on me....at first I believed to be every stereotypical failed padawan rolled into one bumbling idiot...but he's getting more believable as the pages pass.
Mandalorians finally show up, nuff said. June 11, 2007

The series began slowly and dragged in the beginning, but here, finally the story shifts to high gear as the Mandalorians enter the picture.
