Dark Horse has released its solicitations for January 2010 — a month that includes two comic books from yours truly. First there’s the premiere issue of Mass Effect: Redemption (my script on a Mac Walters plot, with art by Omar Francia and a cover by Daryl Mandryk); that should be in shops on January 6. Here’s the first look at the cover with the logo… And, why not, here’s some …
The victims of the diabolical Mandalorian doctor Demagol have waited long enough for justice. The trial begins in November in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic #47, announced yesterday by Dark Horse on the official Star Wars site. Victim Malak is right there on the cover — but where’s Zayne Carrick? It’s part one of a four-issue story that’s full of surprises, one after another. And backtracking a bit, …

Launching in January, Mass Effect: Redemption is written by Bioware’s Mac Walters, drawn by Omar Francia, and scripted by … yes, yours truly.

Nothing vanilla about Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic #43 — the latest issue in our saga, on sale Wednesday. Chaos continues when a caper on a comet crashes! (Pardon the alliteration — and very sorry for the dreaded rap flashback.) Everyone’s getting ready for San Diego and all the big announcements there and beforehand, so enjoy some pre-convention comics goodness. Notes to follow in a while. And as …
Very busy of late, but a few additions to the site: pages for September’s issue of Knights of the Old Republic (#45), and for the seventh of the Knights trade paperbacks, named Dueling Ambitions and including issues #36-41. Preorder from your retailer or from Amazon. I’ve been asked about San Diego, and no, the convention isn’t in my plans this year. It’s strictly a local convention summer for me — …
You may take it as a sign of how much work I have coming out further down the road that I’ve had close to no time to keep folks posted about what’s coming out now, or just come out. It will take me some time to get caught up, but I will take a first stab here… • First, at some point in the last few weeks, Star Wars: Knights …
No, not the roller coaster, nor the old pinball machine from Williams — but the July issue of Knights of the Old Republic, which now has a page on the site here. Knights #43 has a spiffy cover by Benjamin Carré. Order yours now! And I have some notes up on issue #40, touching on everything from Gotal prosthetics to David Letterman…
Yep, the issue you’ve been waiting for — Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic #42 has finally been solicited, answering many questions about how the comics characters fit into the video game continuity, and vice versa. This issue also features the first KOTOR art from Ron Chan, whose Zayne sketch appears at right — and whose site can be found here. Check it out! Lots of discussion of the …
Yep, it’s Halloween in February, in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic #38, going on sale Wednesday — with a spooky haunted ship and more surprises. Cool artwork by my friend Dean Zachary, with whom I’ll be appearing next month at Midsouthcon at Memphis — as well as Star Wars: Legacy‘s John Ostrander. It’s a different kind of issue — putting me in the mind a little of that …
In the now-it-can-be-told department, the latest Star Wars comics series, Invasion — dealing with the Yuuzhan Vong in the New Jedi Order era — was just announced at the New York Comicon. It’s by Tom Taylor and Colin Wilson (artist on no less than six Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic covers). Read more about it here! There’s also a webcomic series devoted to The Old Republic, the massively …
