SWCIC: Yoda & Dooku’s Relationship And Yoda’s Absence During The High Republic, Plus Dagobah & Coruscant (Yoda Volume 1: #1-6) – Ep 131

WHAT DID YODA DO BEFORE THE HIGH REPUBLIC AND HOW WAS HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH DOOKU BEFORE THE PHANTOM MENACE? For ep 131, Mike delves the first 6 issues, which contain 2 story arcs; the first set during the High Republic era where he goes to the planet Turrak to help Scalvi natives, while the second is set before The Phantom Menace, where Yoda asks Dooku to help train some initiates, but when a Wookiee has a vision about a Trandoshian initiate, tensions rise, especially with Yoda & Dooku’s conflicting views on such matters. Mike gives information on Dooku, Dagobah, Coruscant and more! Yoda 1 was released Nov 23rd 2022, issue 6 was released April 19th 2023 and the trade paperback collection is due for release late 2023. Yoda issues 1-3 were written by Cavan Scott, with Nico Leon as artist and Dono Sanchéz-Almara as colour artist. Issues 4-6 were written by Jody Houser with artist Luke Ross and Nolan Woodard as colour artist.

Previously was another High Republic book review, with Lydia Kang’s Cataclysm from Phase 2, Wave 2 where tensions raise even higher with E’ronoh & Eiram, while Axel Greylark is in prison! In this sequel to Convergence, the tensions between E’ronoh & Eiram worsen as The Path Of The Open Hand become more aggressive, all while Axel Greylark is imprisoned, leading to the devastating Night Of Sorrow – Mike provides his spoiler-free thoughts, before providing plot and character information!
