I may have to rename this book to: "Quinlan Vos and the Clone Wars". I was not expecting to see so many comics with him in it and I am so glad that I did. Getting to see him in action as a spy during the war and the consistency that followed from the previous Omnibus of his constant struggle with balance of light vs dark was amazing to see. Not to mention all the other characters inside this book. It shows even more action to go along with the show, opening readers eyes to what the Clone Wars really was after not having answers for so many years. One of the main themes are the Jedi questioning the their purpose in the war and there is even a comic in this book of Jedi who have defected because they don't agree with the decisions the Council is making. It was great to see a different side of the Jedi instead of the sometimes blind faith they put into the council where they don't actual question them at all.
