Star Wars: Jedi Council - Acts of War by Christian Dalla Vecchia, Randy Stradley, Davide Fabbri
1.0
I think the book wasn't that great.
First of all, there were too many characters (of the Jedi Council) that you can't really keep track of much of them. Worst of all, there's all the weird names, the names of the planets and the rebellious warriors, that I just skip reading the names. Can't they settle for something more simpler?
Plot wise, since when did a Jedi Council authorize themselves, ALL of them, to go and fight some tyrannosaurus rex lizards who can carry guns? It also meant losing a lot of Jedi Knights and a member of the Council. Kind of a stupid move, I'd say.
The coloring is, well, too strong on the eye. Yellow skies?
The design of the ships were terrible also, as well as the drawings of them fighting. During fight scenes, sometimes I couldn't differ between who was being hit, who had the lightsaber, and also if that lizard looking person was a Jedi Knight or a Yinchorri (he was a Jedi Knight).
There's only a few connections of this comic to the movies (it takes place before the Phantom Menace). You'd find out about Plo Koon, (Yoda has a female companion look alike!), how Qui Gon Jinn and Obi Wan Kenobi became teacher and student - and a few more - with just a few drawings.
Not really a good read, at all.
