The Omnibus collects three of the X-Wing miniseries, plus a character guide to the series. This was very, very bad of me, and I'm trying to fix it now.

And yet I'd never gotten around to reading the X-Wing comics. Yes, my favorite Star Wars character, in the entirety of the canon, is Wedge Antilles. Oy vey!Īfter getting burned five or six times, I pay little attention to what's going on in the Star Wars Extended Universe.

It's cool and fun but pisses me off that since ABC/Disney/Marvel/Star Wars have become one company, the Dark Horse stuff is NO LONGER considered canon. This is a great way to learn about a new set of characters, as well as watch ancillary characters step up to take bigger and grander roles in the (Dark Horse) Star Wars universe. It therefore behooves the Rogue Squadron to remain alert to deal with the pockets of resistance throughout. Not everyone has received the message of a New Republic. Although it looks like the Rebel Alliance has defeated the Empire, the galaxy is a vast place. This one, along with the next two compilations, focuses on the Rogue Squadron after the Battle of Endor (Star Wars Chapter VI: Return of the Jedi), where Wedge Antilles and his Squadron of X-Wing fighters are heralded as heroes. In the spirit of Star Wars Day (May the 4th be With You) and Revenge of the Fifth (Yes, we Star Wars geeks take our $#!+ seriously), I read this Omnibus and simultaneously discovered that Dark Horse has no less than 35 Omnibus collections of Star Wars comics, and that's not to mention Marvel Comics that has their own extensive compilations.
