Dreamwatch Magazine June 2005: " A collection of wonderful stories from across the Star Wars Universe..."
Product Description
THE CONCEPT ARTISTS OF STAR WARS BRING THEIR TALENTS TO COMICS! They've been responsible for some of the most dazzling, awe-inspiring visuals ever seen in film, and now the concept artists for the Star Wars prequels are bringing their unique visions to the comics world! The gifted creators at Lucasfilm's art department and special effects powerhouse, Industrial Light and Magic, are given free rein to explore the Star Wars universe in this all-new collection of short stories, each offering a new twist or a deeper view into that galaxy far, far away. George Lucas' creation has never been more vividly realised or more purely expressed in comics than by the Star Wars visionaries!

Part art book, part comic.,
By
This review is from: Star Wars: Visionaries (Star Wars (Dark Horse)) (Paperback)
THE STORY:Well, some of it is simply artwork by the team that helped design Episode III, but a lot of the book is non-continuity or psuedo-continuity comic strips. A few of them are: 'Old Wounds', a classic what-if sort of story in which Darth Maul (having survived Episode I, and with new droid legs) tracks Obi-Wan down on Tatooine three years after 'Revenge of the Sith'; 'Entrenched', a story from the Battle of Hoth; 'Prototypes', which reveals the origins of the Clone Wars character Durge and his run-in with the Mandalorians; 'Deep Forest', the story of how the Wookiees enter the Clone Wars; and 'The Eyes Of Revolution', the backstory of Ep III's new villain General Grievous. WHAT'S GOOD: WHAT'S BAD:

better than the films,
By
This review is from: Star Wars: Visionaries (Paperback)
with artwork and stories by the concept guys from episode 1, 2 and 3 this book is filled with better storylines, artwork and characters than the films...
even the weaker stories within this are superb, I recommend it to anyone that was disheartened by the new films... Within in it: Sith, Hoth, Landscapes, Grevious (in a way the films should have done) and much much more... Worth a read a look and generally very enjoyable!

Gorgeous.,

This review is from: Star Wars: Visionaries (Star Wars (Dark Horse)) (Paperback)
I love this work. There are numerous different short stories, all by different writers/artists. With one or two exceptions, they are all beautifully drawn and good stories. Each is drawn in a completely different style, so there is bound to be at something you don't like, but on the flip side, you will probably love most of them. Another reviewer hated The Artist of Naboo story, but I thought it was exceptional. There is a story there if you piece it together, and the style of the art is the deepest and moodiest of all the stories. My personal favourite, the title of which I forget, comes in the middle and deals with Mon Mothma's son on Hoth. I absolutely LOVE the style of this art, it feels extremely fresh and is the best I've ever seen Hoth drawn.
