Jedi masters Yoda and Mace Windu escort a Republic delegation to an archaeological dig, rumored to be the site of a cache of ancient Jedi artifacts. But the lure of the Force is strong, and it's not long before the party comes under attack by marauders intent on taking the relics for themselves, even if they have to go through two Jedi to do it!
The Bad Batch is a cast of characters that really became important to me over the course of their series, which I did not expect, so I'm glad to see them get a bit of love in comic form as they've not had a lot of attention there. Or in other media as they basically exist within their show and that's largely it at this point. This story is pretty straightforward and a touch goofy at times with the droids as we see them here but it also fits both into the movies of the period and the Clone Wars era itself as it swings between deadly serious and fairly goofy. It's a fun story with a good amount of dialogue and action so that it doesn't feel like it just whizzes by. Definitely more fun than I expected. Read Full Review
