Path of the Lightsaber Volume 1 by Kenny Ruiz (Viz Media Manga)

102) Path of the Lightsaber Volume 1 > Okay, this manga was definitely improvement over the Edge of Balance ones.

It really pulled me in and I am looking forward to seeing where things go in the next volume.

Also, quite a few candidates here for my next avatar.

Star Wars: Path of the Lightsaber by Kenny Ruiz (Viz Media Manga)

Tomorrow's manga...

(I am surprised how much long it is compared to Edge of Balance ones.)

I hope my current sub last long enough for final issues.

I have been really enjoying this batch of short stories (I guess there will be trade, at least).

Star Wars Episode 6: Return of the Jedi (Film - AMC Channel Rewatch)

101) Star Wars: Return of the Jedi > Still, my favorite of trilogy.

It’s hard not to be with Yoda revisit, the scenes with Luke, Vader, and Emperor, and Rebel Fleet scenes.

(I made some Pak’s Vader jokes during this rewatch. XD)

Star Wars Episode 5: The Empire Strikes Back (Film - AMC Channel Rewatch)

100) Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back > Yoda scenes and Vader duel are still my favorite parts of this film.

(VeersWatch has infected me as I got excited whenever Veers was on screen being like "he is finally here!" XD

I also forgot that whole thing with snowspeeder wasn't in final film.)

Star Wars Episode 4: A New Hope (Film - AMC Channel Rewatch)

99) Star Wars: A New Hope > AMC Channel is doing OT marathon this weekend, so I figured I give OT rewatch.

It’s funny how much publishing stuff stick in my brain when rewatching this such as I shout “Fake Wedge” during Rebels Briefing and I think of Jude Edivon when her report shared to Tarkin.

Jellystone Season 3 (Animated Show)

98) Jellystone S3 > I like the extra long season, but Marinara Madness was certainly an odd one to end series on (Although I guess CN crossover was meant be real finale, based on Production Code).

My Top 3
- S3E1: Meet the Jetsons
- S3E9: Jellystone Noir
- S3E24: Better Off Fred

Star Wars: Master of Evil by Adam Christopher (Del Rey / Random House Worlds Novel)

Next week's book...

Hm. The implication of last line for flashback does feel like they are committing to Han losing the Falcon in ~15 ABY (as suggested by Timelines book), which does add some bittersweetness to this moment as it might have been Han's last chance to really bond with Ben before his Jedi training start.

I didn't realize we were getting a new artist (Pete Woods) for this issue.

It certainly different from Noto's style, but I do rather like how action looks so far.

But anyway, I am glad to see Jesrit and Luke reunited.

Ah, that makes much more sense.

I guess I should listen to it with headphones (I just used my PC speakers). XD

Thanks for your response (Sorry if I bother you).

In Chapter 19 (Time Stamp 12:19-12:22), Velorie is using a word to describe Korda ("...You say that [Insert Word] over there knew how to lean on people...").

Is that word jerk? It is a bit hard to tell in narration.

My top playtime for my Nintendo consoles (from Nintendo Store app)...

Star Wars: Jedi Knights Volume 1 (Marvel Trade) Star Wars: The High Republic Adventures (Phase 3) Volume 5 (Dark Horse Trade) Star Wars: Legacy of Vader 10 (Marvel Single Issue)

This week's comics...

Big week.

I can't wait to read Path of the Lightsaber.

Jellystone Season 2 (Animated Show)

97) Jellystone S2 > It was difficult picking just three for this one since I like a lot of episodes this season.

My Top 3
- S2E13: Boo-Boo and Benny: Little Buddy Trouble
- S2E15: Jailcation
- S2E9: Uh Oh! It's a Burglar!

Jellystone Season 1 (Animated Show)

96) Jellystone S1 > I figured I’ll check this out since I like some of clips that I have seen from it.

My Top 3
- S1E20: A Town Video: Welcome to Jellystone
- S1E21: Spell Book
- S1E7: Must Be Jelly (Flintstones Romance Novel was one of reason it made my list. lol)

Okay, I just caught up on the first two episodes of Season 2 and yeah, I am sold on sticking around to catch whole Season 2.

(I already replayed S2 opening title a bunch as I love guitar riff paired with animation.)

Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake S1

95) Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake S1 > As sequel series go, I thought this did pretty good job building off what came before (with Simon) and evolving concept of Fionna and Cake.

I think I might keep my sub active to see how S2 goes.

Adventure Time: Distant Lands

94) Adventure Time: Distant Lands > Since I still have HBO Max for at least another month, I figured I checked these out.

I would say it was pretty enjoyable collection of specials. Together Again & Obsidian definitely being my favorites of bunch.

Absolute Superman Volume 1: Last Dust of Krypton (DC Trade - Library Copy)

This week's library book...

(Hm. I need to find something else from my library after this one.)

Halloweentown II: Kalabar's Revenge (Disney Channel TV Movie)

93) Halloweentown II: Kalabar's Revenge > I couldn’t resist rewatching this, so I figure I close day out with it.

Gort was definitely highlight for me.

(The fact that Marnie's actress [Kimberly Brown] end up later marrying Kal's actor [Daniel Kountz] is kind of funny.)

Halloweentown (Disney Channel TV Movie)

92) Halloweentown > Since it was still Halloween, I decided to rewatch another classic from my youth.

Benny the cab driver is still my favorite extra from this.

Hocus Pocus (Film)

91) Hocus Pocus > I gave this rewatch in spirit of today’s holiday.

It is still a fun watch. *hums "I Put a Spell on You" to myself*

Absolute: Batman Volume 1: The Zoo (DC Trade - Library Copy)

"Na na na na na na na na Brickman Na na na na na na na na Brickman Brickman, Brickman, Brickman" - A Discord comment made by me on October 11, 2024 after seeing cover for this comic

90) Absolute Batman Volume 1 > While I did joke about this comic’s Bat logo before (See second image), I did end up liking this universe’s take on Batman.

And like Wonder Woman, I am looking forward to reading more.

Absolute Wonder Woman: Volume 1 - The Last Amazon (DC Trade - Library Copy)

89) Absolute Wonder Woman Volume 1 > As someone with limited experience with Wonder Woman media (I only really know her from Justice League show and DCEU films), I thought this did a great job of reimagining her and her mythos.

I am looking forward to reading next volume when my library gets it.

Doctor Aphra: Chaos Agent (Marvel Miniseries)

88) Doctor Aphra: Chaos Agent > I am tad disappointed this end so soon, especially as it felt like it was just getting start.

It certainly didn’t help with cameo of week style they went for this run (That said, Han's issue was favorite out of the run).

I also wasn’t big fan of the art.

Oh, wow... That's cool.

Congrats, dude. 🎉

Star Wars Visions Volume 3

87) Star Wars: Visions S3 > Here’s my top 3 out of this year’s shorts…
- The Lost Ones
- Yuko’s Treasure
- The Bird of Paradise

Star Wars Visions Volume 2

86) Star Wars: Visions S2 > It wasn’t easy picking favorites out of this batch.

Here’s my top 3…
