Tank actually did appear before this in the first rebellion omnibus. He was the main character of the to the last man storyline, Star Wars: Empire 16-18. Love him in this omnibus
came here to say this!
Louise Simonson and June Brigman together. Oh yeah!! 🙌🙌🙌
We want tales of the Jedi Omni king
Got the standard cover pre-ordered. Can't wait to dive into it.
My FF by waid and wierigo arrived today as well 🤯
June and July (pending any delays) are getting some releases that I am really looking forward to and this is one of them. Thank you so much for this overview 🔥🔥
I'm waiting for star wars new republic vol 2... can't wait for that one..
Same, hopefully it doesn't get delayed again.
@AlexisMartinez-dh9bt I hope so too. That book was delayed for like 18 months, or at least a year.
You da man Omar !!👍
Been reading all SW (Empire, Rebellion, NR) in Omni and loving it. Really looking fwd to this book! Agree on comment of including credits and issue info as part of covers in between chapters, such an easy but important thing to do!
Both covers look great.
Nice overview! I’ll have to try and pick this one up soon.
Going with the Luke Leia cover. I don't want Vader on a Rebellion spine!
I love these collections so much. The mapping is incredible and I can’t wait to have even more of these stories collected. (The menace revealed or clone wars next hopefully!!!)
‘Splinter of the minds eye’ was intended as a low budget sequel to the original movie. A novelist was hired to write a book that would be adapted to, possibly, a TV movie. The book was written and published but never filmed. With the success of the first movie there was no need for the sequel to be low budget and we got ‘Empire Stikes Back’ instead…
In my opinion. The time frame between ANH and ESB was done far better by Marvel with Aaron and Gillen than these two Rebellion omnis. Aside from that, the Dark Horse Legends era blows the Marvel era away. Omar always says, make your own canon. Marvel owns the era between ANH and ESB for me. Everything else is all Dark Horse...although I don't consider Dark Empire to be all that great of a story.
I wasn’t interested but you sold me on it.
I’ll get it now thanks
We now have 2/3 of the Vector story arc in omnibus format. Give us that Star Wars Legacy Omnibus Marvel! Finish it!
Kind of an old skool, 80s looking wraparound.
I’d honestly get this cover if the spine didn’t have Darth Vader 😅 Vader is monopolizing a lot of these legends spines.
I wonder where they'll put the Infinities stories; probably at the end of the Rebellion line
or A Planet of the Apes style omni
I would actually put it in a Legacy Vol. 2 Omnibus. There were 4 Legacy epics, and 4 is too many for 1 Omnibus. Vol. 4 (Legacy II) alone is too small for an Omnibus, so they should include the Infinities stories.
@@robd9921 I love it; your post to David's ears
It’s interesting. Both Empire 4 & Rebellion 3 figure to have 25> issues + bonus material.
Either marvel just prints substantially smaller volumes or throws them at the end of one.
@@robd9921judging by the epics, it would be 900-920 for the two legacy omnibus with first volume covering issues #1-36, second volume covering #37-50 + remaining content.
@codysummers6842 I'm kinda figuring Marvel will do all of Cade Skywalker's Legacy issues in 1 Omnibus. They did all of Zayne Carrick's KOTOR issues in 1 Omnibus and that was also a 50 issue series + 6 issue miniseries.
There is a trilogy of Dark Horse Comics I want collected in Omnibus format: Tales of the Jedi (coming out next month maybe); The Clone Wars (still no announcement); Star Wars Legacy (the perfect end to Star Wars).
So The Rebellion v2 and New Republic v2 omnis are dropping on the same day?
No, New Republic got delayed until July
Hi, is the Williamson adaptation of "Empire" collected already in some Epic Collection? Thanks!
it’s in Rebellion vol 5 with a slightly different recoloring, and in Original Marvel Years vol 3 with the original colors, iirc
@@reyathua Thanks!
You didnt show where it fits on the shelf :(
So I skipped the Rebellion omnibus volume 1 because of Star Wars Kids and I am thinking about skipping this one too.
Does Rebellion 2 have better material than the first?
It's still a mixed bag since everything is collected in chronological order. There's good and bad. Omar does a good job of laying it all out. There's a lot of older comics in this one, and some people have a harder time with the older ones
Splinter of the Mind's Eye was intended by George Lucas to be the second Star Wars movie IF Star Wars didn't do well at the box office. Lucas wanted to continue the story but he thought that he'd have to do it with very little money. That's why it's only Luke and Leia and takes place on a single planet. Hard to believe now, but no one (including Lucas) thought Star Wars was going to be a success.
I wish they would stop with the ugly black frame - either the cover ends up smaller or you lose some of it.
As a Legends fan I find the Rebellion era to be its weakest mainly because they were just weaving stories between the development that happens in the movies, besides the Janek Sunber stuff and the Jabiim arc here that calls back to the Republic comics I honestly find it the weakest in parts. There are good stories, but they feel disjointed and not interconnected as well as they could be. Its a pass for me as I already have the two trades that make up the onmi besides the Splinter of the Minds eye stuff, which I never cared for that story anyways.
So much better than Disney slop.
Hmmm.... that Medina art ruins it....
