    The Wrath of Darth Krayt

    So what do you do when you get upset with a race who sided against you? You wipe them out that's what.

    Pros:

    Darth Krayt is upset big time. He failed to turn Cade Skywalker to the dark side, lost his new imperial flagship, and lost half of the shipyard at Mon Calamari. The punishment? Slaughter. He decides to turn 10 percent of the Mon Calamari population into sushi. Darth Krayt is one evil man.

    Even more new characters make an appearance. Two Imperial Knights called Treis Sinde and Sigel Dare (Sigel actually made an appearance in issue 3 and on the cover of issue 6) arrive to actually help the Galactic Alliance. Treis Sinde reminds me of Obi Wan Kenobi while Sigel Dare is just loyal to the Emperor. She makes it hard for me to like her.

    Oh, I haven't even touch on the artwork. The cover just proves how upset Darth Krayt is. This may be the most violent issue yet. Alan Robinson is the artist, and while it's not jaw dropping gruesome, it's things I rarely see in Star Wars comics. Heads flying, limbs cut off, blood, it's there.

    Cons:
    I find it odd that Imperial Knights would show up out of no where. I would think it would be hard for both the Alliance and Empire to get to Mon Calamari since the Sith are in charge.

    While the violence is there, my problem with Alan Robinson's artwork is that it's too cartoony. Faces look awkward and it seems that objects like Darth Krayt's helmet comes to life when he reacts or Treis Sinde's beard is actually part of his face.

    Overall: This was more of a epilogue to both the Claws of the Dragon story and Indomitable. Seems like Cade is coming back in the next issue.
