Years later we finally got a compilation of the comic strips published in the German “Rebels” and “Rebels Animation” magazines, which ran for years, never published anywhere else. Dark Horse makes a great softcover volume of over 500 pages, containing over 40 short stories from different writers and artists.
The stories encompass characters, situations and timelines adjacent to the episodes of the 4-season series. None of these stories adapt the episodes, or related novels, but they are entirely new. Most of the times, they chronicle missions with all or part of the main cast, but we also have stories where they are just barely related.
All of the extended cast of the series is portrayed once or more, with fan-favorite characters such as Lando Calrissian, agent Kallus, Vader, even Saw Gerrera.
The writing is generally on point, and the art rarely disappoints. This is a terrific compilation and any Rebels fans should have it in their collection!
