19 - Thrawn with the Wind

Welcome back to the Comicast!

In this episode, Jeff, Madison, and Sam explore the world of Star Wars through the graphic novel adaptation of Timothy Zahn's 2017 Thrawn novel. Set in the time period before the events of A New Hope, the story follows the rise of Grand Admiral Thrawn, one of the most iconic and feared antagonists in the Star Wars universe. Join us as we discuss the unique character of Thrawn, his strategic brilliance, and his impact on the Star Wars canon. Does a cunning and verbose character like Mitth'raw'nuruodo work as a comic book character or should he stick to the novels and/or the silver screen? Join us for this episode to find out!

Our next episode will be focused on first volume of Star Wars: Darth Vader, Dark Lord of the Sith by Charles Soule (for reasons totally unrelated to this episode, we swear).

Requests are coming in through our socials below - follow us and leave a request or recommendation for a book for us to read for a future episode! We're also opening up our Discord to the community to continue the conversation!
