Jedi Dass Jennir’s research will be the central theme in the second volume of Star Wars Dark Times, a comic published by Planet Comic
The second volume of compilation of Dark times continues to explore one of the darkest and least explored periods of the universe Star Warsthe time immediately after the fall of the Galactic Republic and almost eradication of the Order Jedi After the Order 66. This volume deepens the consequences of that terrible era, focusing on characters who fight to survive in a galaxy that seems immersed in despair …
A Jedi called Dass Jennir
At the center of this story is still (as in the first volume) That JennirAND Jedi This, unlike others, does not represent the classic image of the idealist hero. Dass is a man marked by the disappointment, who no longer believes in the Jedi order and fights with his internal demons. After abandoning the order before the fall, he is now trying to find a purpose in the middle of chaos, and this volume describes that research with great emotional depth. Jennir is not a perfect hero, much less. His decisions, sometimes questionable, reflect the moral complexity that dominates this saga, which is precisely the aspect that stands out most in the comic.
The accompanying group is a reflection of that fragmented galaxy full of contradictions. It consists of very varied characters, the young slave Sunrider nameswhose history adds a powerful dramatic load and embodies the struggle for freedom and hope, to other allies that come with their dark passage and personal reasons. The dynamics between these characters is very well built and feels authentic, because survival in such hostile times requires both cooperation and suspicion. There is no place for blind trust and internal tensions often threaten to cancel the group and external enemies.
The threat represented by Galactic empire It is a constant and oppressive presence. In these episodes, the empire not only acts as a military or political enemy, but also as a symbol of horror and absolute control. The imperial tactics are made up of hunts, undercover agents, torture and ruthless reprisals. This creates an environment in which any error can be fatal and paranoia and fear becomes constant partner of the characters. The comic triumphs during the transmission of that atmosphere with a very dark tone, without leaving room for false hopes or easy solutions.
A dramatic look at the galaxy
One of the most interesting aspects of this volume is the way in which the identity crisis and the moral conflict of Dass Jennir are explored. The character is not only fighting to survive physically, but also by reconciling his past with his present. The fall of the Jedi order and her departure from her have left her a void and a sense of loss that are reflected in her actions and thoughts. Throughout the volume Jennir struggles with the idea of using his power to protect others or give it up to avoid becoming what he despises. This duality makes history not only an adventure in the key Spatial work But also a profound human drama.
At the same time, the comic offers a very raw look at slavery and oppression through the character of Sunrider names. Its history is an emotional counterpoint that adds a human and social dimension to the narrative. Reflects the suffering of the oppressed under the imperial yoke and the silent resistance that is often born in the most unexpected places. The evolution of names throughout the volume is a symbol of hope, showing that even in the most terrible circumstances the human spirit can resist and fight for freedom.
And we will also have a subtram with Darth Vader which offers an introspective and gloomy look at the first days of Lord Sith as an executor of the empire. Even if it is still faithful to Palpatine emperor Crepes begin to emerge in their absolute submission. His discomfort intensifies when he discovers that the empire plans to use slaves in his operations, an idea that awakens the painful memories of his childhood as a slave Tatooine. The news not only rages him, but also highlights an internal conflict: the young man Anakin Skywalker This dreamed of freeing the oppressive inhabitants, somewhere, under the black armor. This subtram, although short, is particularly powerful because it raises a contrast between the relentless executioner who vader and the persistent echo of his loss of humanity represent. Do not rebel (again), but its anger and frustration anticipate future tensions with the emperor.
The action scenes are very well reached, with fights that not only serve to have fun, but are also narratively justified and loaded with tension. In addition to showing skills with light saber and physical fights, he tries to reflect the precariousness of the protagonists, who often have to fight in numerical inferiority or without preparation by not only putting their lives but also those of their classmates. These sequences provide rhythm and dynamism to history, preventing the story from falling into a too dense or monotonous tone.
A different series
Art is another prominent point of this volume. The design of the numbers contained here (which is not particularly precious or narrative) together with the color palette and the use of deep shadows manages to perfectly transmit the dark and oppressive tone of the series. The faces are particularly expressive, which helps the emotions of the characters to be palpable for the reader. The scenarios reflect the decline and the constant danger of a galaxy under imperial control, from desolate roads to the claustrophobic interiors in which each shadow seems to hide a threat.
One of the great merits of the series in this volume is the way in which it addresses complex issues such as fault, redemption, morality in times of war and the price of survival. There are no easy answers or characters that are completely good or bad. Each decision has a cost and every victory comes with sacrifices. And this thematic depth that differentiates this series from other more traditional Star Wars stories is very popular.
In short, this second volume of Star Wars Dark Times It is a work that offers an absorbent and emotionally intense reading. It is not only a space adventure, but also a story about how light can persist even in the darkest moments and on the difficult decisions that those who refuse to surrender should take. For the followers of the Star Wars universe they are looking for a deeper and mature story, this volume is undoubtedly a must.
