-Dairki was once a Jedi and a friend of Qui-Gon. Possible continuity issues. If Qui-Gon ends up having another apprentice other than Xanatos. Than the EU overwrites itself once again

Picked-up
Jedi:Dark Side #5
Invasion:Revalations #3
Dark Times (Vol. 2) #2
Knight Errant:Deluge #2

Only EU/Continuity issue I noticed is:
 In earlier writings of the EU. Xanato's escaped Telos 4 after Qui-Gon killed his father and about 20 years later. Kenobi ended up killing him. But in Jedi;Dark Side #5
Qui-Gon Tells Yoda that Xanatos died with his sister during the attacks on the family palace.
Either this is bad EU continuity since it's the EU overwriting itself. Or Qui-Gon lied to Yoda about Xanatos. Which to me Yoda would've felt in the Force.

Knight Errant #5
Agent of the Empire #1
  - I hope DH isn't running out of ideas. Agent of the Empire is nothing but a story about Jahan Cross. Nothing more than a male version of Mara Jade. That's all this bolis down too.  And what a surprise. He runs into Han Solo which he went to the Imperial Academy with. Cross was a year ahead of Solo there. What a small galaxy.

Will continue to read this series to keep collection going, but not looking forward to it.

SW: Dawn of the Jedi #0
Takes place 36,453 BBY
Before the discovery of hyperspace travel and and before the foundation of the Old Republic.
But more important. Before the legends and philosophies of the Jedi and Sith were recorded.

Should be a fun series and it gives us a whole new era to read about.

Dark Times #4
Agent of the Empire #3
Crimson Empire III #4
K.O.T.O.R: War #2
Dawn of the Jedi #1
  This one may have continuity issues within the EU itself already. Early writings of the Jedi have early Lightsabers being powered by battery packs that they wore, but on this cover. They show someone weilding a normal looking Lightsaber.

         - still having continuity issues within the EU.
           Stated earlier that lightsabers had battery packs back in the day, but last page of this issue has a full fledge lightsaber.
           No battery pack. But overall a good story. The Je'daii didn't use any kind of weapons. Just the Force.

Curious on how this will effect the EU in anyway. Or if at all.
just may be a ruse to make us think he is actually dead or not.

SW Blood Ties: Boba Fett is Dead #1
Unfortunatly. Previous reports on this taken place "AFTER" the Sarlacc are false. It takes place 10 BBY. Which I'm a little pissed about. Just because they made it seem like such a big deal.

After reports of Fett's death. An actual clone from the Jango line (appeared in the first Blood Ties storyline) starts to go and eliminate anyone who was there. But get's caught at the end of issue one.

SW Crimson Empire: Lost Empire #6
  - Kir Kanos starts a new life while leaving his old life as a Royal Guard behind.

SW Dark Times: Out of the Wilderness #5
  -Still no conclusion to the final issue of this series about Vader finding former Jedi Knight Dass Jennir.
  How long can they drag this out. They made us wait a year before continuing the story only to have no ending.

1. Carida
2. Corulag
3. Raithal
4. Arkanis

Getting caught up on my reading finally.
For those of you who follow this thread. I only breakdown issues that I feel have an interesting tie-in to the movies and/or the EU. Plus if I feel there are continuity issues that might be important to discuss.

SW Knight Errant: Escape #1-2
SW Darth Vader and the Ghost Prison #2-3
  - What was interesting in issue 3. Was the fact that Vader came acrossed an old transmission of him as Anakin and the Jedi
    Council. He was wondering what has happened to his "Prisoners of War". He got into a heated agrument with Mace who told
    him that he was chasing rumors.
    So once again. The Jedi Order lied and/or deceived one of there own. Because they set up this secret Prison for the more
    dangerous criminals. It was one secret that they even managed to keep from Palpatine.
SW Dawn of the Jedi: Force Storm #5
SW Blood Ties: Boba Fett is Dead #3-4
  - Connor Freeman (Fett's half brother) helps to save Sintas Vel and her daughter Ailyn on Concord Dawn.
    Fett catches Connor kissing his wife (ex) She tells Connor that she dosen't want to be reminded of Fett again.
    Connor tells Fett that Ailyn has his eyes.
SW Darth Maul: Death Sentence #1
  -A few problems I have with this storyline so far.
   1. Savage is now in total Sith appearal like Maul. I've read that because of this. Technically that breaks the "Rule of Two"
   2. The Jedi know how powerful Maul is. Now he has his brother who is just as powerful. So what does the Jedi Council do.
       Instead of sending Obi-Wan on the right path to the brothers. They sent a couple of Jedi we never heard of to a location
       where they might be and of course end up finding them. The outcome is predictable as to what will happen to the Jedi.
       Even though Obi-Wan is on Maul's  trail. Why didn't the Council inform him of his whereabouts so he could of found
       Maul and his brother before the two Jedi did.

SW Knight Errant: Escape #3

SW Lost Tribe of the Sith: Spiral #1
   -Takes place 2000+ years since the ship "OMEN" crash landed on Kesh.
    You would think that after 2000 years. The Sith would be in control of the planets an it's people.
    But there are always gonna be those who oppose the Sith.

SW Darth Vader and the Ghost Prison #4
SW Darth Maul: Death Sentence #2
- Still having problems with this and how it's being handled. >:(
  If Obi-Wan is on Maul's trail. Than why did he not confront him on the planet of Moorjhone?
  Instead you get a padawan and 2 Masters arrive to confront them.
  Savage gets carbon-froze during the battle. Than Maul gets stabbed in the waist from behind with a lightsaber by the
  Padawn Drey. (Why not end it and just stab him through the back.) Only to have Maul turn around and cut-off the
  Padawns hands. ( Maul supossed to be much angrier. Why didn't he just kill the padawan?)
  Maul escapes only the have the planets locals rescue him and he agrees to help them reclaim there planet.
  I'm guessing he's gonna do it to try and free Savage.

 The story took place a few months after ROTS and Tarkin was already in charge of starting to build the Death Star.
