This week, issue #2 of
Dawn of the Jedi – Force Storm hits shelves. It's easy to spot, as it has 'Butch' the flying Rancor on the cover! The beginnings of the Jedi begin with a disturbance in the Force, as three of the young Je'dai investigate what is sure to be a galaxy-shattering event – a Force Storm! Fan favorites John Ostrander (appearing this weekend at
Annapolis Comic Con in Maryland) and Jan Duursema will introduce you to the ancient masters of the Force. Also, if you missed issue #0 or issue #1 of this series, hurry to your local comic book shop today and pick up the 2nd printings of both issues, as these are bound to sell-out as well! Collector note: There is not an alternate cover for these issues. The printing will be listed on the indicia inside. These are the first
Star Wars issues to receive a 2nd printing since the first three issues of
Legacy!
Also on shelves is the next

Empire 8-9, 12, 15-18, 23, 36-40,

Rebellion 0-5. This 440 page tome will set you back $24.99.
Also on the TPB front, is the collected edition of

TOR volume. This series follows agent Theron Shan on a dangerous mission, which connects both to the MMORPG game as well as the upcoming Drew Karpyshyn novel. It retails for $18.99.
