Give it my best shot.

Never played/seen it.

Nope. Between "The Empire Strikes Back" and "Return of the Jedi". There's also a Book and a Video Game based on this.
(This "Idea" was designed and executed with all three platforms in mind. This is rather unique, as it's usually one that gets done first, and then the others just rip it off.).

Yep. It's based on a comic series. You can get the Graphic Novels at Fine Comic Stores. Not bad...
| HeavyBlaster wrote: | Truce at Bakura Sourcebook???
What? |
Based on a Novel of the same name. Fairly decent novel, just after "Return of the Jedi". Luke takes command of a fleet. It's a small fleet, but a fleet nonetheless. They fly off to help the Impieral Planet of Bakura from an Alien Invasion.
Anything else? |

Black Sands of Socorro covers a few planets in a specific region, as for tie in relation to the actual story, I don't think there is any.

Not all adventures/books are based on the Movies... Or even the Novels. Some are just out of the sick, twisted minds of the authors. |

How does 'Tails of the Jedi' hold up in light of the new material from ep 1&2? Is it still a good buy...?
What about the Jedi academy book...I like the look of that one and my whole thought is bent on acquiring it?
Have any of you got this free stuff on the Jedi and EP 1?

I own Black Sands of Soccoro. There is a thread about it here, I think.
