Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 лип 2024
- In 1994 - 1995, Tom Veitch and Cam Kennedy continued the Dark Empire comic series with 6 comic book issues. An Audiodrama was also released by Time Warner and Highbridge Audio. This definitive edition combines the two, along with adding John William's score among others, since the original audiodrama did not contain overlaying music. Enjoy!

"Anakin Solo! He will be a great Jedi Knight one day!"
And by that we mean he'll be killed off pointlessly for character development.
Nick Jameson is the emperor in CW 2003. Thought I recognized that voice. Man. What a great video and comic. Can’t believe I’ve never heard of these before
good
Fabulous. Thank you so much for the great entertainment.
There was a CD set released years back, which also includes Empire’s End. DE & DE2 got audiocassette releases but EE never did. It’s all a wonderful listen.
I bought all these on the newstand when they were released.
A better Star Wars than that wrought on us by the House of Mouse.
I love everything about this. I grew up at the end of the legends era and want to read every great story that I've missed out on.
Luke's social/home life cant catch a break, FINALLY meets a Lady he can get together with, and 2 days later...dead
My mans Luke can never get a break in Legends or Canon lol
That’s part of the cost of being a hero and living a dangerous life of adventure
@@CwapPlatinum But he handles loss a lot better in Legends than in Canon, and gets a lot more dignity
Had these on cassette tape in the 90s when they came out and was a huge fan of the comic series. I love the fusion of the two. The added music is also a fun addition.
The Disney version would have been..." Six years after the Battle Of Endor, Luke Skywalker discovered that SOMEHOW Palpatine returned and he is ALL the Sith, that " THEY " fly now and that the weapon of a jedi deserves more respect.😒
I just read the short story Lightsider and despite it’s status as non-canon, it really fleshes out Kam’s character and makes his redemption feel more poignant. Please give it a read as it helps to iron the details left out of Dark Empire ll.
I’m so used to hearing Boba Fett with Temuera Morrisons voice!
Ikr. It's the only voice out of the whole cast I don't like. Everyone else is spot on, but the New Zealand accent just sounds so perfect compared to what I can only describe as a dying computer.
As a fan from the early 80's, hearing his voice for Fett is weird for me, too 😆
The main thing I don't like about it here is the overdone modulation.
I really love these audio dramas!!! It’s giving me my Star Wars fix at work
Thank you so much for uploading these! I remember back in 1992 when Dark Empire came out, it was a 6-issue bi-monthly series. reading these comics in my room, waking up early before school and reading Dark Empire are some fond memories in my life. Such great stories. I always had high hopes that we would get to see these stories in movie format. I honestly thought Disney was going to fulfill this destiny, but alas we got The Last Jedi 🤢🤢🤮 and what ever garbage Disney released. They had all these great stories and characters at their fingertips. Instead we get Rey......... 😐😑
ROSW was the first Star Wars movie I never saw, still haven't seen it. Never plan on it.
I've never seen Last Jedi and ROSW too.... honestly videos like this are better than anything we could've ever hoped for from Disney.
that holocron guardian sounded like optimus prime lol
It sure does, an evil Prime...or maybe more like Venger.
Tom Veitch would be proud of you.
Damn. Mara Jade be seething at 1:29:26
She would be absolutely furious.
47:50 very cool use of Rey’s Theme.
Thank you for these audiobooks! Love them.
Yup, I had to make up my own leitmotifs for characters and planets. So Jem & Ossus got Reys theme because of how mysterious and joyful it sounds, and Sedress got a section of Kylos theme
Lets keep the fanfiction away from real star wars.. It adds nothing.@@MrPoke
@@LunarTikOfficial hey, it's all john Williams to me
@@LunarTikOfficialboo hoo
Aww don't cry! It's just an opinion, and words don't hurt, remember? @@idkstudios4412 😉
Brand is one of my favorite characters. I wish he was in more stuff.
I really enjoy these. The level of work put in is brilliant. Thank you
This is truly incredible. Makes me feel like a kid again.
Better than Disney wars
Someone's actually using the audio and making an animated series of this storyline. He's only got two parts (well technically three but the third one will be broken into parts) I really hope that he finishes it, because this story is really good. I read it myself and I really don't understand the hate.
This is amazing. Great job and thank you for posting this.
Thanks for sharing. Much appreciated.
top 4 fave qoutes
zalla:move alonngggg i know i knoowww, imerpial stiff sheeeshhhh
boba fett:the wooks dead
palpatine:DO ITTTTT!!!!
gov betlane:have you imperials gone maddddd!!!!
Great work
This is a really good production. Thanks for creating this! 😁
1:08:09 "somehow palpatine returned" vibes lmao
Except that the writers of this story actually bothered to provide an explanation unlike Chris " Martha! Why did you say that name? " Terrio.😂🤣
Somehow... Palpatine returned....
When Wedge talks to Luke, Canderous Ordo is talking to himself…
It mentioned Wedge had a garage on Corellia, but he grew up on Tattooine with Luke…?
Wedge didn't grow up on Tatooine, you might be thinking of Biggs
@@MrPoke Yes! I did mean Biggs! I realised the day after I wrote that :D
The dark side poison runs deep...but the FORCE can heal him.
Sedrisses voice is peak
Love these tales
This is wild as a blind listen. Nearly every character sounds evil, so it's difficult to keep track of characters.
I like the comic pictures but I wish I could read the whole frame. I'm sad I missed out on all these audio dramas, comics, and games as a kid. Never knew about this stuff.
I never knew about the audiodramas until two years ago, and I only started collecting the comics last year, so we're both late to the ride.
@@MrPoke and one day you will both grow up
@@jasontalbot5916 and still love Star Wars
@@jasontalbot5916 why are you here? Just to talk crap? People have interests. Why the fuck do you get to judge what is appropriate
@@zakaryperrin7126 I love it too but there's a line between loving it and being obsessed with it how does your wife or girlfriend feel about it...awww
I’m just saying they could make a whole trilogy with a young clone palpatine and the reason why luke is a mess up in the sequels is because he’s already fought palpatine like 3 times already
That crip.dame he's em doing the wicked life
Nice to see Lando is a "other" hero of the alliance. SMH. It never ends
I always thought that hiding the children on a planet called New Alderon as a bit Homer-Simpson-like. Dohh!🤔
The sequels we should have got, i liked the story of Rey but that is the end and beginning but i wanted this first the middle and the story of luke at his prime of power etc.
If your a Fett, you have no business wearing a Jetpack.
These guys never give Anakin Skywalker Darth Vader, any screen time or popularity
Why would he get screen time in this story?
He's dead now.
Like, I could see him getting one or two scenes as a Force Ghost within the EU, but you can't overuse that. There's good reason the last time Obiwan could Force Ghost Commune with Luke was at the beginning of Heir to the Empire. The current generation has to stand on their own feet.
The voice talent is very good. Story seems to have some fundamental misses, is it because this was written before those became the guidelines?
It was because there was no prior lore other than the OT.
Star Killer Base would have been a better super weapon than the galaxy gun maybe the star killer laser would have been build on Byss instead of that ice planet this would have made the second book better
God bless you! Do you rip them from your cd? And is it possible to get pure files without youtube compression?
Yeah I ripped them from the cds. I'll post them to archive.org soon
Check my archive account archive.org/details/@mrpoke
@@MrPoke oh damn son
Is crimson empire the next part of the story or is that it’s own thing?
Has anyone ever counted the many difference in the Audiobook vs. the comic books' original writings?
I put some of the main differences on their wookieepedia pages
@@MrPoke Cheers :)
There are so many differences !
I hope they're all up there ;P
@@MrPoke Ah cheers!
Kinda weird Lando just isn’t in the DE2 or Empire’s End audio
Probably couldn't get Billy Dee Williams to return for whatever reason and it was easier to write him off then recast.
Yes
Is it possible to do Darth Bane and Plagues
Those are audiobooks (not audiodramas) and don't have comics to go with them. I think they're on youtube already
@@MrPoke also what about Tale of Jedi and Golden Age of Sith comic series
@@BN-uh8cm yes I do have the Tales of the Jedi and Dark Lords or the Sith cds and am planning on doing them after Crimson Empire
@@MrPoke Ooooohh yyyesss thanks doing the hard work of finding these seriously thank you !!!!!
@@MrPoke such a good series! I loved listening to both of those very much.
30:51 Boba Fett an Imperial Stormtrooper? When was this?
Back in the day Lmao
I feel like a lot of the dialogue is different from the original comic in this audiocomic. Why?
What art style is this is y2k
Steampunk
Why so many ads?
UA-cam
Luke skywalker Christ
nit
Better than Disney's craptastic sequels...
And prequels
@@decoyaardvark2828the prequels belong to george lucas (even if disney own it). It may be bad to some people, but it has cool lightsaber fights for me.
decoyaardvark2828, prequals are good sw stories unlike what you cultists say
Boba seems like a downgrade to emotional and animal like
