Topic: The Republic Commando novels.

I finished reading Star Wars Republic Commando Order 66 recently and its by far my fave novel of the series and soon I'll be starting the Legacy novels at some point in the near future which I'm looking forward to as apparently they feature a lot of Mando stuff.
I don't know about anyone else but I would love to see the RC novels adapted to tpb format.

Re: The Republic Commando novels.

I'm pretty stupid and dont know what tpb means, but the RC novels will be continued this year with a new title "Empereal Commando" since the republic dont exsist. Cool name by the way smile

Re: The Republic Commando novels.

When he says tpb I think he means trade paper back.  Or graphic novel.  Whatever you prefer.  A graphic novel of the RC series would be awesome.  As long as it wasn't part of the Clone Wars promotions and done in the same style.  I would puke if we had them drawn anything like that.

Re: The Republic Commando novels.

Sorry I did mean trade paperback/graphic novel depending on what you want to call them.
I always used to call them graphic novels until I got online and people told me that a trade paperback and a graphic novel are different I can't remember the reason the gave the two are still the same thing to me.
Either a RC series done in the original style like you say and not something else for the kids to help promote the Clone Wars.
Even if they just adpated the four novels in graphic novel format it would be cool to see what everyone looks like or at least get an idea because everyone no doubt has their own images in their heads of the characters.

Re: The Republic Commando novels.

I'm almost done with Triple Zero, and I do like it better then the first book.  I still have my differences in ideology with KT on the Mandos, though I'm beginning to see that my own views need some modification, and I'm really looking forward to starting on the next book

Re: The Republic Commando novels.

Karen Traviss has made a lot of changes to the Mando's and some of those changes I wasn't overly keen on to start with but at least we're seeing a lot more Mando stuff now.
I would like to see more stories of the Mando's from Jaster's era though as Jango Fett Open Seasons was my fave Mando story arc and probably always will be.
I would like to see stuff set prior to the events that took place at Galidraan.

Re: The Republic Commando novels.

I just finished Triple Zero as well, and I loved it. I can't wait to get my mitts on True Colors! Hopefully I'll get it and chew through it before the month is out. Then, on to Order 66! I would say something more constructive, but I have to jetpack off. xD

Mandalorians - very good at providing little deaths in large quantities.

Re: The Republic Commando novels.

I've only read the first two. Are the third and fourth as good?

Re: The Republic Commando novels.

I would have to say no, but dont let that discourage you from getting them, there still good books. Lets just say I dislike the path Karen took with some of the characters.

I dont think I could say more than that with giving any spoilers.

Re: The Republic Commando novels.

I wasn't keen on on where she went with some of the characters either and True Colours was my least fave novel of the series but I loved Order 66 apart from how some things happened near the end of the book.
I can never make my mind up which I like best out of Hard Contact and Triple Zero as it seem's to depend on my mood but most of the time I would have to say TZ.

Re: The Republic Commando novels.

order 66 was very good and it had a couple of reall surprises.id love to see a mandalore book written by david drake.id like to read the legacy books when i can afford them as the mandalorians feature alot in them.some graphic novels would be good.
