Tuesday night I received a Cease
and Desist letter from Lucasfilm. Their complaint was about the improper use of

wishes, the Images Section has been removed.
If you are interested, you can read the full letter by going to that section.
Sorry for the inconvenience, but without compliance, Galactic Voyage would cease
to exist.

Pencils and cover by Lucas Marangon; Inks by Dan Parsons. On sale December
10. 40 pages.
Eighty million Togruta from the planet of Kiros have suddenly disappeared!
It's up to Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Togruta Padawan Ahsoka Tano to
find the lost population. A clue leads the Jedi to the Zygerria system: massive
slave auctions have been held there in the past, and will be taking place again
soon -- with the unfortunate Togruta on the auction block!
This new series is a complement to Lucasfilm's highly anticipated
CGI-animated Star Wasr: The Clone Wars television series!

Atiyeh; Cover by Dan Scott. On sale December 24. 40 pages.
The beginning of a whole new era for loner Jedi Zayne Carrick launches our
clever, clumsy hero, his con-artist best friend Gryph, and the bold Jarael into
the kind of seat-of-your-pants adventure only Star Wars can provide! The
perfect starting point for new readers, this story kicks off the next phase in
Zayne's life with a long-shot swindle gone wrong! Gryph's got a plan to part
some shady-dealing Chev from their unjustly earned credits, but he'll need more
than a disguise to protect him when they catch on to his game!

It is Jedi vs. Sith, and Sith vs. Sith in this, the conclusion to "Vector" --
the year-long event that has shaken the galaxy, shattered lives, and brought
about new beginnings ends here! Darth Krayt may finally be captured and defeated
in the trap set by Cade Skywalker and Jedi Master of old Celeste Morne. But
Emperor Krayt might no longer be the most powerful Sith lord in the galaxy. Will
Cade and Celeste have another Sith to defeat... or join?
Star Wars:
Legacy Volume 5Written by John Ostrander; Pencils and cover by Jan
Duursema; Inks by Dan Parsons; Colors by Brad Anderson. On sale February 25.
104 pages.
Cade Skywalker just wants to be left alone. But when you and your friends
have just blown up half of the Sith Temple, cut down two of Emperor Darth
Krayt's most trusted minions, and you happen to be the last known heir of the
Skywalker legacy, people -- bad people, and lots of them -- are going to
come knocking.
The Empire's retaliatory genocide on Mon Calamari is just the icing on the
cake. Cade and his bounty-hunter band realize that something must be done! If
only there was somebody to help Cade save the galaxy and get the Sith off his
back. Maybe a bunch of Jedi?
The secrets of the Hidden Temple are revealed -- along with a spy who was
once a friend!
The Official Star Wars Site has the latest information about
Star Wars Insider #104. With Star Wars: The Clone Wars just around
the corner, Star Wars Insider #104 catches up with supervising director
Dave Filoni on all the latest about the new animated series. Sharing the
spotlight is Star Wars: The Force Unleashed; Insider visits the
Lucasfilm headquarters at Skywalker Ranch and the Presidio to uncover the
secrets of this highly anticipated new video game.
Also in this issue, Insider counts down the 10 most memorable lines
from A New Hope and examines their impact on the world. It's Admiral
Ackbar versus Admiral Thrawn in a battle to see who comes out on top. A recap of
a busy convention summer looks at Celebration Japan and Comic-Con International.
And take a look back at yesteryear with a feature article about the launching of
the original Star Tours, and a look further back -- 30 years ago -- when
the Star Wars Holiday Special first reared its, uh, furry head.
All the regular columns round out the issue, and this issue includes a new
feature interview with visual effects visionary Dennis Muren. One of the veteran
ILMers who worked on the first Star Wars, Muren steered the visual
effects industry into new, digital frontiers in the '90s and his achievements
are many. Star Wars Insider #104 hits newsstands on September 16th.
Joćo Pinto from Undercity Portugal sent
in word about the Portuguese release of the The Force Unleashed.
Undercity Portugal along with the 501st Legion Portugal with the
support of Toys'R'Us and Ecofilmes are presenting the game Star Wars: The Force
Unleashed in September 19th at 7pm local time.
We are preparing a nice party with some surprises and a small amount of
the Hasbro's Imperial Stormtrooper Commander action figure for the first buyers.
This event will happen in CC Colombo in Lisbon and will gather fans from all
over the country and we are proud to participate in the Portuguese official
launch party.
My thoughts and prayers go out to
all those that were affected by the ghastly terror attacks of September 11,
2001. It is hard to believe it has been seven years. We remember and honor those
that lost their lives seven years ago and we honor those that have given their
lives today in order to preserve our freedom. May we never forget and may we
always remain vigilant and united.
Today's video clip comes from Game
Trailers.com with their Star Wars video game retrospective for the ninth
episode. In it, they go over Rebel Assault and the Rouge Squadron series of
games. Enjoy!
