Catch Up on Clone Wars Web Comics

from StarWars.com:

You’ve watched Star Wars: The Clone Wars, but have you been reading the stories between the episodes? Each week a new episode of The Clone Wars airs, it is preceded by an all-new web comic exclusive to StarWars.com. It can be found at http://starwars.com/clonewars/comic/. Five to seven pages in length, each installment contains a side or bridge story that ties in directly to that Friday’s episode. Here’s a recap of the tales that have been told and a preview of future installments:

#1 “Prelude” — A tie-in to the premiere episode, “Ambush,” this story features the clones that accompany Yoda to the moon of Rugosa — Rys and Jek — as they are given their assignment. It also debuts Skytop Station, a Separatist listening post that now, a month later, will begin to be featured in the episodes.

#2 “Shakedown” — Before the Republic definitively discovered what General Grievous’ new secret weapon was in “Rising Malevolence,” many warships fell to the experimental ion cannon. This comic story depicts an ill-fated mission.

#3 “Procedure” — Anakin is determined to do something about the threat of the Malevolence, and his characteristic reckless initiative takes him to a Republic military testing facility where he secures the weapons he’ll need in the episode “Shadow of Malevolence”.

#4 “Agenda” — When Padmé Amidala emerged from hyperspace right into the path of a Separatist warship in “Destroy Malevolence,” she was on her way to a diplomatic mission. In this tie-in comic, she not only gets this crucial assignment, but also has to shuffle priorities in a busy day-in-the-life of a Galactic Senator, even if it means ignoring a plea for help from an old friend.

#5 “Mouse Hunt” — In “Rookies,” Clone Captain Rex and Clone Commander Cody have finished an inspection tour of a tracking station on Pastil — this comic tells that story. A Separatist spy droid is discovered on Pastil, and the clone officers mobilize the troops to stop it.

#6 “The Fall of Falleen” — In “Downfall of a Droid,” we learn that the Separatists have been enjoying a string of successes, including the conquest of Falleen. This comic documents Asajj Ventress’ role in that victory.

Other stories coming up include “Discount,” wherein droid dealer Gha Nachkt brokers a shady sale for a Separatist leader. In “Transfer,” Anakin dispatches Ahsoka Tano on a personal errand despite the wishes of the Jedi Council. And in “Departure,” a simple attempt to prep a ship for transit ends up in a nightmare when C-3PO and Jar Jar Binks are involved.
