There was some great Winter/Tycho and (view spoiler)[some sad sacrifices in the end, (hide spoiler)] but I just didn't really get into these stories.
Solid writing and art direction across the board here.
The second collection of X-Wing, this consists of the following stories:1) X-Wing Rogue Squadron Special (basically a bit about Wedge's background and his influence on Rogue Squadron)2) Battleground: Tatooine3) The Warrior Princess4) Requiem for a RoguePersonally, however, none of the stories really seemed to hold my attention all that much: as a matter of taste, I think I still prefer a printed novel over a comic novel
great read some of the drawing could've been better the last story made every one look like they were in need of sleep but then again maybe they were
The heroic action of X-Wing Rogue squadron did not end after battle of Endor, but continued as the remains of the Empire simply refused to give up and continued to fight.
2 of these Rogue Squadron collections later and I can’t figure out why they are so immensely popular and loved.On one hand, I guess there’s a nostalgia factor at play here, since this series came out in the mid 90’s, smack dab in the huge Star Wars resurgence of the era, but even then, I can’t see that as justification for such a overly dull and boring series of stories.Much like the first volume, there’s really nothing in this second volume that stands out or brings anything worth mentioning to...
Excellent star wars seriesExcellent addition to the rogue squadron series. A must read for all fans of Wedge Antilles and the rogues !
Nice assembly of New Republic stories from the era of Legends!I enjoyed the art and the action. I can only hope that new Canon will continue to mine the Legends for stories.
5 starsNice to see more stories with Rogue Squadron. RIP Herian and Dllr. Interesting that Plourr is a princess. Hope she and her husband will have a good life together. Can't wait to read more Star Wars Omnibus novels!!!!
x-wing rogue squadron special What a great start this shows just how humble Luke Skywalker is and helps me to understand why rogue squadron has been so successful. This start gets a 5.0 out of 5.0Battle Ground TatooineThis was a decent read but I got lost several times because there is so much going on. The x-wing dog fighting was pretty good and let's not forget Bib Fortuna. To be honest I would have to read this story over to get a better understanding. I rate this story 3.8 out of 5.0The Warr...
Much better collection than Volume 1. The weakest is the second but still very good. The second adventure gets mired in politics of the planet, but stays interesting. The last story is the best of the bunch.
This set of Rogue Squadron stories is much better than Volume 1. Several pilots are rotated out of Rogue Squadron - some in unpleasant ways...
The first arc in this collection was just okay... I don't really like what they're doing with Winter/Targeter compared to how she seems in the novels. I mostly warmed up to Plourr's arc by the end of it. I think the last arc was the strongest.
SW xwrs v.2
The sequel trilogy made me want to go hard on star wars so I decided to read these omnibuses and they're fine, idk
3.5 stars, bumped up because X-Wings. The stories are pretty good, slightly better than the first volume. There's only one established character that shows up with any regularity, so would it kill the artists to have a vague idea of what Denis Lawson looks like? The first story was entirely forgettable, basically a summary of Wedge's career as seen in the movies. The writer seemed to be confused as to whether he was writing about Rogue or Red Squadron, as they get called both.
I have this on the Dark Horse app, which doesn't have the page numbers in it, so I'll be going off the app # if cite anything.What I liked about all of the comics in this Omnibus was that at each beginning, when the pilots were introduced with a 'face shot', the names were given.X-Wing Rogue Squadron SpecialThis is a short snippet of Wedge's background and his influence in Rogue Squadron and the movies.Battleground: TatooineThere was quite a bit of snark here, especially at the start. At first,
3.5A guilty pleasure of mine. Requiem for a Rogue was the first comic I ever bought, back when there was a store called EBX in Plaza las Americas, and even though I bought the final issue first (I had no idea how comics worked), it managed to burn itself into my memory.
The second volume of Rogue Squadron contains three stories, "Battleground: Tatooine", "Warrior Princess", and "Requiem for a Rogue". Nothing overly fantastic, but all entertaining. Wedge Antilles continues to be a great character and the supporting cast is enjoyable too.
Dark Horse Comics - Star Wars: X-Wing Rogue Squadron issues #9-20. Great collection with some excellent stories. Lots of action combined with great writing, perfect for the comic book medium.
