"A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away..."May of 1999 saw filmmaker George Lucas make his long awaited cinematic return to his immortal movie mythology with the premiere of "Star Wars: Episode One: The Phantom Menace;" followed by "Star Wars: Episode Two: Attack of the Clones" in 2002, and "Star Wars: Episode Three: Revenge of the Sith" in May 2005. These films came to be called "The Prequel Trilogy" and told the epic story of Anakin Skywalker, a young man gifted with the power of the Force, during a tumultuous time in a galaxy that bore witness to conflict and calamity on a cosmic scale. This grand space fantasy saga has been retold in the special hardcover volume, "Star Wars: The Prequel Trilogy: A Graphic Novel" published by the Walt Disney Company and Lucasfilm Press.This trio of films relates an ultimate tale of good versus evil, a drama born of love and hate but most significantly, the responsibilities and consequences of choice. These are primal story concepts, first imagined on theatrical terms by Mr. Lucas, re-imagined in humanity's oldest storytelling form: drawing. Like its predecessor, the Star Wars: Original Trilogy Graphic Novel, released in 2016, this book takes inspiration from the movies its story is adapted from but in visual presentation, also pays homage to the fabled film studio that is the steward of this cherished chronicle, a studio named after its founder, Walt Disney. In fact, the central charm of this 208 paged tome is its distinctive artistic vision, different from its cinematic inspirations, films created with the most contemporary movie making magic. The magic this book creates is based on no less a primal concept: vision realized by the act of illustration.But enough with the pontificating! On with this comic review!"The Prequel Trilogy" is an ambitious epic and this graphic novel version of the rise and fall of Anakin Skywalker offers ts own successes and shortcomings in bringing this immense tale to its audience. At its core, the book provides a truly entertaining alternative showcase of the story imagined by Mr. Lucas, rendered in an artistic style appealingly similar to classic Disney animation. The cartoon-like character designs are notable: for example, Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn has a face dominated by his strong nose, while the precious Padme Amidala has large, expressive eyes, reminiscent of many past Disney heroines. Anakin is featured, as in the films, from childhood in "The Phantom Menace," filled with innocence and exuberance, to young adulthood in "Attack of the Clones," a man with eyes touched by subtle lines of shadow beneath them. By the time of "Revenge of the Sith," Anakin the Jedi Knight is a grim-faced hero, burdened by war, secrets and personal demons. Another rewarding aspect of the art is its combination of old school comic storytelling technique with computer imaging technology used to enhance such things as backgrounds, architecture, space ships and visual effects.The flaws the reader will find in this adaptation are the same from the previous book of "The Original Trilogy," an abridgment of scenes and events from "The Prequel Trilogy" due to the page length of this graphic novel. While the retelling of "Episode One" seems to suffer the least when it comes to its translation from film to comic, the tales of "Episode Two" and "Episode Three" falter from a very rapid pace because of plot editing. Cases in point: Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi's intense encounters with bounty hunter Jango Fett in "Attack of the Clones" are lessened in their impact, while the emotional nightmares that so frighten Anakin in "Revenge of the Sith" are only fleetingly touched on, despite the great turmoil they create in the troubled Jedi. Still, the creative team of this graphic novel, which includes Alessandro Ferrari, Matteo Piana, and Ingo Romling, also responsible for "The Original Trilogy" adaptation, do succeed overall in making their sequential art version of this sweeping saga an engaging reading experience.When the companion volume to this hardcover tome was released in 2016, it came as a pleasant surprise to this reviewer. Unlike the 2015 premiere of Marvel Comics' "Star Wars" monthly comic series with its multitude of "variant" covers to its first issue, this two book set of "Star Wars" comics was published with little if any advance promotion. But what this "Star Wars" fan happily discovered was a pair of graphic novels I am glad to add to my collection.This book comes very recommended!Enjoy and May the Force be with you, always!
"A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away..."The epic exploits of Luke Skywalker, the brave hero and Jedi Knight, who strove to bring peace and justice to a galaxy distant in space and time, have been told in many forms since his creator, filmmaker George Lucas, first revealed his legend to an enraptured world decades ago. Since the fateful day the young farm boy from Tatooine looked at a beautiful binary sunset above his dessert planet home, longing for the chance to see the greater universe beyond the only world he knew, his story began to be told and retold again and again. "Star Wars: The Original Trilogy: A Graphic Novel," is another interpretation of this classic hero's journey re-imagined not for the first time in the genre of sequential art...a thrilling comic tale.In this large, 208 paged hardcover volume, readers will once again be drawn into a story of intergalactic conflict on a mythic scale as Luke "takes (his) first steps into a larger world" as he encounters droids and automatons, a beautiful princess, strange alien beings, space smugglers and gangsters, a wise old man and a wiser old gnome, wondrous worlds, fierce space battles, courageous sentient beings struggling to defeat the might of an evil galactic empire, merciless followers of a dark creed, and his own personal destiny as "a new hope" for a galaxy striving for a better future. This is the immortal "Star Wars" Saga. The serial structure of the three film series, officially called "The Original Trilogy", is repeated in this collection. Regretfully in this retelling, while nearly all the familiar plot elements are showcased there are still story points that are omitted due to space limitations. For example, the scene in "Star Wars: Episode IV: A New Hope," in which the "crazy old hermit" known as "Ben" Kenobi reveals his ability to defend himself with a light saber against a pair of small time Tatooine crooks is not included in this version of the story; nor is Luke and Leia's desperate swing across an artificial chasm deep within the monstrous Death Star to escape a squad of stormtroopers. Luke's lone take down of an immense Imperial walker is missing from this adaptation of "Star Wars: Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back," as well as his disturbing Force dream which occurred during Luke's time of Jedi training on the swamp planet Dagobah with Jedi Master Yoda. Unfortunately also, the "You like me because I'm a scoundrel" scene which helps establish the romantic bond growing between Princess Leia and Han Solo is also edited out, negating much of the emotional drama of Han's imprisonment in the carbon freezing process featured later in the film. Lando Calrissian's introduction and uneasy friendship with Han is also condensed to the further detriment of this depiction of "Episode V." This comic version of "Star Wars: Episode VI: Return of the Jedi" is regretfully abbreviated as well in scenes like the introduction of the mysterious bounty hunter Boushh, unnamed in this book, actually Leia in disguise; and the powerfully emotional sequence in which Luke confides to Leia the true secret of their shared pasts, before he goes to face Darth Vader, and perhaps his final fate. All these missing pieces of this beloved story will disappoint any reader who knows this classic tale, lessening their full enjoyment of this alternative version of the Saga.But despite the above shortcomings in these particular stories of "Star Wars," there is still magic within these pages. This illustrated version of "The Original Trilogy" is presented in an art style very reminiscent of the cel animation or 2D cartoon creations enjoyed by generations from the producers of this project, the Walt Disney Company. Specifically, this collection proves to be a showcase of the talents of Disney comic creators from the nation of Italy. For decades comics featuring characters from Disney canon like Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and comic master Carl Barks' Uncle Scrooge McDuck, have found an adoring audience in Europe, even more than in their homeland of the United States. Thus the Disney Studio has utilized gifted overseas writers and artists in the creation of comics for readers outside of North America. Among these talents are Italian comic craftsmen and women who contributed to this special project, like: Alessandro Ferrari, who wrote the manuscript adaptation and a team of illustrators which include Matteo Piana, Igor Chimisso, Alessandro Pastrovicchio, and Davide Tuotti.Considering the long animation legacy of the Disney Studio, which is loved the world over, a comic version of "the adventures of Luke Skywalker" told in the style of vintage Disney animation seems appropriate and actually very enticing. The surprising charms of this particular take on this world famous tale are partly the distinctive 'cartoony' caricatures of the cherished characters, like Luke, Leia, Han, and Chewbacca. The Dark Lord of the Sith, Darth Vader, has a more insect-like interpretation of his helmet design, but he remains no less menacing. Meanwhile, Master Yoda's appearance seems to pay homage to the animated Yoda imagined in Genndy Tartakovsky's fondly remembered "Star Wars: Clone Wars" 2D animated series from 2003-2005. This 21st century adaptation of the Saga also uses modern computer graphic technology in its coloring and visual storytelling, notably in its illustration of the starships of the "galaxy far, far away" and the dreaded Death Star, giving this comic an added cinematic impression.The animated ambiance of this version of "Star Wars" is an especially appealing aspect of this comic collection, creating a wish in this reviewer to perhaps someday see a 2D cartoon take on more of "the adventures of Luke Skywalker!" While the Saga has had great success with the computer animated "Clone Wars" theatrical film and TV series, and the "Star Wars: Rebels" TV show, this special tome serves as a reminder of the continuing allure of hand drawn animation.To conclude, "Star Wars: The Original Trilogy: A Graphic Novel" is an enchantingly different look at one of the greatest adventure stories ever told. With a cover featuring the cast of heroes and villain enhanced with a metal shimmer effect, pages of exciting storytelling...and a promise of another tome to come featuring the epic tale of the "Star Wars Prequel Trilogy (!)," this is a book of entertaining reading for "Star War" fans of any age.Recommended!
The art is pretty killer, but some things that I nerdily consider essential (especially Han and Chewie parts) are removed from the story...I guess I was looking for a more complete retelling.But the art is great.
My 6th grader has learning disabilities and reading is really tough for him. Once he started showing an interest and personal commitment to reading, we got him some graphic novels. This is a great book and reasonably priced. Perfect for Star Wars fans!
My seven year old son was hesitant at first and then once he started he didn't stop reading it. He loves star wars and after he read this and the second (real first) one we had to rewatch all of the movies before he reread them both again!
This is a a really cool book. I wish I had this when I was a kid! The artwork is very good, and it follows the story from the movies almost exactly. I bought it for my kids for Xmas, and then ended up buying a copy for my nephews, and a good friend's kids. I highly recommend this for any star wars fan.
Beautifully illustrated, but I do wish it was complete. There are several scenes that have been left out (Leia in disguise delivering Chewbacca to Jabba's Palace, Boba Fett's death in the sarlacc pitt, etc...), but is still a fun read.
I was recently given the Original trilogy book as a gift for my son. It looked nice in his little library, but figured it look a little lonely by its self.Now having both, I never realized I would introduce Star Wars to him this way. He loves the stylized artwork and it was easy for him to follow along when we have story time.
