Welcome to the Oblivion Bar where the first round is on me and the pretzels are free! Be warned: like the pickled eggs at the bar, this issue is going to get SPOILED rotten.

To be honest, a ton didn’t happen this issue. We left last issue with Vader finding out that their was an underground reserve of Jedi hiding out with the Mon Calamari people. Vader tortures the King of the Mon Calamari people and he gave up their location. We pick up in the story with Jedi Master Barr trying to get his people out of there fast. But it’s too late.

Vader found them escaping under the water and literally made one of his “padawans” heads explode. The rest get back to another hidden location only to have two more drop like flies to the Inquistors. Vader would have done it by himself but Tarkin requested his help with the Mon Calamari people. Turns out; these fishies are tough! They almost took down Vader two issues ago and now are more than holding their own against an Empire fleet. So, Vader left to help Tarkin destroy the Mon Calamari.

Meanwhile, we end the issue with a stand off between Jedi Master Barr and the other Inquistors who basically laugh off the situation. Why you ask? It turns out the Inquistors and Master Barr know each other. Master Barr was a Padawan when the purge of the Jedi happened and he actually never became a Master since they were all gone and since he went into hiding.

But Master Barr learned many things while hiding, including the Senator being a Sith Lord and Order 66, which is the death of all Jedi. And it turns out, the Inquistors were also Jedi. So, Master Barr screams out the order at the end of the issue to instill Order 66. I wonder if the clones are required too listen to all Jedi orders still. I guess we will find out.

The issue wasn’t as good as the others but it was still a great read. Parts were a bit confusing. For example, does Master Barr actually have Padawans? I don’t think the people working with him were Jedi

I could be wrong. And were the Mon Calamari going for another attack or were they also hiding and moving to safety in their big vessels? I don’t know. Maybe someone can help me out with that one? The art is great, the story is fine I just think their was more story than action in this one and the story that was told didn’t give us anything too crazy. I’m still exited to read the next issue and I’m curious as to how the Empire will take down the Mon Calamari.
