Threat of Peace: Act II, Issue II

Because you couldn't get enough of the first one, Bioware gave us some more webcomic. Are my eyes deceiving me or is that some development of old characters?

Those are too short. Good, but too short.


I, for one, approve of the Ewoks. They're a fine representation of the primitive natives doing better in their own environment than the invading white man.
Take that, Avatar.

I'd say they're inefficient, plenty of webcomics can get a complete thought done in a page or even a frame well and frequently, but this team isn't pulling it off with 3 pages. =/

To be honest, I've stopped reading. Within the first few "issues" I've lost complete track of what the entire comic is trying to set up.

I'm in two minds really, they seem to have gotten better locales and characters, but there is literally no substance to them... We could gather the story from there just being pictures lol, the Writing isn't telling me anything I dont already know.

What's the point of these anyway? Aren't they set like thirty years before the actual game?

The point is to fill in the history (albeit in a rather slipshod way). That way players will know how things in the game came to be the way they are.

This issue feels particularly disjointed. I don't think i'll bother with any future issues unless it picks up.

Same here.

The last one I read had someone named Satele Shan in it, missed the next one and then just lost track of what was going on.

I still read them, mainly because they're so short I don't lose more than a minute of my time, while trying to get into the story of TOR.
