    The Bad Batch continues the pursuit of its mysterious subject, one whom we learn -- if actions are any indication -- is a person not to be trifled with in the least. Dark Horse Comics' Hyperspace Stories: The Bad Batch -- Ghost Agents #2 (of 5) is a funny and action-laden installment that propels the five-issue mini-series ever onward and upward.

    Episode #440 -- Running in the Family
    Kylo Ren reflects on his horrible, awful, no-good, pained childhood in the pages of Marvel's Star Wars: Legacy of Vader #2, one that features loving family, loving friends, everything he ever wanted and more as he strives to one-up the miserable existence of his grandfather, Anakin. Plus he encounters Gardulla the Hutt and finally gets a long-overdue comeuppance.

    The first Rec Room seems to have been a success. Or, rather, no one complained about it. So we've got another one this episode, with Jeff highlighting a favored LP and Matt spotlighting a cherished film. Hang out after the hot comic talk to hear what they are.

    Episode #439 -- My Dark Disquiet
    Marvel's Star Wars: Jedi Knights debuts and it's a case where the hype wasn't wrong. The series captures the Jedi Order before the events of the prequel trilogy, sporting a case of familiar faces, some new ones and a fair amount of intrigue. It's a superb debut and is going to be a fun read month in and month out.

    Dark Horse's long delayed first Hyperspace Stories: Qui-Gon original graphic novel has arrived and the creative team has weaved a truly unique story that melds flashbacks, callbacks to The High Republic, certain myths and fables as well as space-borne suspense in a story that builds upon the Qui-Gon Jinn lore and features Obi-Wan Kenobi and Count Dooku, too.

    And after the comics discussion, stay on for a new segment that we're trying out. We think you'll like it.

    It's a Dark Horse kind of day as we break down the debut of the five-issue Hyperspace Stories -- The Bad Batch: Ghost Agents series, which hurls itself into immediate Clone Wars-era action and intrigue, with sparkling dialogue and fluid and flowing visuals.

    In The High Republic Adventures Phase III #15, Farzala fights for light and life, yet can't shake the feeling that the conflict with the Nihil on Eriadu could end quite badly for he and his comrades.

    Episode #435 -- Haven't Got Time for the Pain
    The first of Marvel's 2025 ongoing series debuts with Star Wars: Legacy of Vader #1, a book detailing how Kylo Ren (aka Ben Solo) grapples with being the First Order's supreme leader while still grappling with the self-loathing and resentment toward just about anyone and everyone. The series is set after the events of The Last Jedi and promises a layered examination of the complex character. Demand appears solid, given Marvel's announced a second printing for the issue, due out March 19.

    Episode #434 -- Six Weeks
    All the comics are out today. Ever.

    OK, not all of them, but there are six books out today, including four from Dark Horse Comics -- The High Republic Adventures Phase III #14, The HIgh Republic Adventures 2025 Annual, Echoes of Fear #4 (of 4) and Dispatches From the Occlusion Zone #4 (of 4). Each book is key, with stories that pitch forward phase III of the The High Republic.

    From Marvel, Ewoks #4 (of 4) wraps up its love letter to not just Ewoks as creatures, but the cartoon, the television films and the original 1980s run. In Star Wars: A New Legacy, we mark 10 years of Marvel Star Wars comics with three stories in a giant one-shot, including a great DoctorAphra and Sana Starros story that features some familiar faces, but a whole lot of not-so familiar faces, too.
