  • In 1991, Star Wars Dark Empire was released as a comic series by Dark Horse, written by Tom Veitch and drawn by Cam Kennedy. Cover art was done by the wonderful Dave Dorman. An audiodrama for the comic was released in 1994 by Time Warner and Highbridge Audio. This Definitive Edition edit combines the two, along with adding John William's score + other Star Wars music. Enjoy!
    This was made for Dark Empire's 20th anniversary.

    The SFX, The voice acting, Music, story, dialogue.... within the 1st 10 mins of listening to this, I feel like a kid again watching Empire.
    An understatement to say that Disney missed the mark. Big Time.
    Edit : Yeah, 25 mins in... I wish the world was blessed with this as the 7th movie. It would've been tough with the actors being older, but I'm sure they could've figured something out. The Characters are exactly how they should be. This is Star Wars

      Could've easily moved the plot 30 years into the future instead of 5, and you could've easily added characters like Finn and Rey to handle the action the retirement age rebels may not be volunteering for at the same rate they used to. Yeah, Star Wars is dead. It was mismanaged by incompetent, bumbling arrogant fools. And it hurts.

      I definitely wish Kylo REN wasn’t dead…maybe he isn’t, or maybe he is and Ben Solo lives again, free of the Force Dyad that turned him to the Dark

      Exactly. True Star Wars is anything pre-Disney but here's hoping Disney comes up with something cool for once that isn't rehashed a million times from another franchise like Marvel or some crap.
