Yo man I never been this mad not since last jedi I can't believe faloni dose this disrespectful stealing the name plus logo even since the creater's passing could've come with better title nope[duh I'm too lazy duh]I used to be fan of his C.W. show but now I'm fan the Old Republic era I would say I like to hear your opinions on dark empire that is my favorite old eu trilogy
Great review. There is only one real Tales of the Jedi Series! And it's the epic great Comics! Not the Disney crap! I really love these comics cause they brought me into the EU. And for me the EU is the true star wars.
It shows how uneducated the fan base is when they say the current writer is stealing material especially the title when it's a brand in itself that has existed for more then 15 years grow up and understand different types of media
EU fans: "OMG! They're making a Tales of the Jedi TV series? I can't wait to see the show about Ulic Qel-Droma, Nomi Sunrider, Exar Kun, and so forth!" Dave Filoni: "Actually it's going be about Ahsoka, Young Dooku, and Young Qui-Gon." EU fans: "What?! FUUUUUUUU-"
We all know that DaaD FiiF will screw up the backstories of Qui-Gon and Dooku. Well that and also Ahsoka will be plastered everywhere for the over 8000th time.
The Tales of the Jedi comic series is truly legendary, unlike Filoni's fiasco, which had to steal its name from a more popular and superior story. Entertaining review, JJ.
I like how the ancient Sith aesthetics presented in Tales of Jedi are loosely based on Ancient Egyptian aesthetics. It isn’t quite on the nose like the Thousand Sons and the Necrons are in 40k, it allows the Ancient Sith to have an unique identity rather than evil Ancient Egyptian Sorcerers in Space.
One thing I like about Naga Sadow and ludo Kessh is their opposites in a way which makes for a wonderful story. Ludo beleives the the best what to honor marka’s legacy is to maiantain the riches of the sith empire while naga beleives ludo is keeping the sith from its true potential which is galactic domination
This Star Wars comic series made me realize Star Wars could be so much more than just the movies. The tales of Nomi sunrider, Ulic qel Droma and Exar Kun will always have a special place in my heart. I would kill for a animated show or feature length film, but that was before th dark Disney times
What I like about the old EU is that you can get different stories and characters in different eras and expand upon stuff that the movies and not even Disney canon never touch on.
I agree what you said about Ulic story line makes more sense than Luke in TLJ considering it just don’t make sense for Luke to be in that position due he never had the issues with the Jedi in his timeline if it was someone in the prequel era like Mace Windu or hell I can see Anakin doing the Jedi losing faith trope but not Luke Skywalker.
I read all of the Dark Horse Star Wars comics, from their inception, to their end. Though it had a clunky beginning, on the whole these creations were some of the best Star Wars ever written. They even managed to take the miserably clunky Prequel Films' material and fashion something great out of it. From the Ancient tales to the next 100+ years after 'Jedi', their creative team was putting out Hit after Hit. Since it looks like the VIdeogames 'Knights of the Old Republic 1 & 2', were derived directly from this material, it's no surprise they were also great. However, just like the great sequel to 'Aliens' that Dark Horse created (a storyline that, while not perfect, blew 'Alien 3' away), all of their comic SW stories were COMPLETELY ignored when creating the films, much to the detriment of those creations. Now, of course Disney had a Culturally Marxist Agenda they wanted to implement from the start, so everything (including profits) had to be subordinated to that, so even if they were to be used, they would only have been abused, as the OT was.
A great review, but a sticking point I must make: Could you avoid generalizing SJWs? I have friends that consider themselves SJWs (or at least very Socially Liberal), and I know some of them are Old School Star Wars Fans that still love the Tales comics. You can defend Women's Rights and recognize villainous women like Aleema Keto as well-done characters. Pretty sure the majority of people that are called SJWs have no issues with this character. Likely only a small minority would complain. You are right Disney wouldn't want to touch these comics, as they are too afraid of putting anything controversial in their material whatsoever (they can't have Boba Fett, the "baddest bounty hunter in the galaxy" who later becomes a literal crime lord, do anything actually criminal in his own TV Series). Certainly do not mistake the actions of a multi-billion dollar company with average people holding certain social beliefs.

You forgot to mentioned how powerful exar kun and ulic qel droma were in the force were, exar kun as a jedi knight escalate above naga sadow and freedon nadd both confirmed to be star 🌟 boosters. Freedon nadd surpassed naga sadow than when on to grew over 100 years in power, Exar Kun not only destroyed nadd spirit but absorbed naga sadow freedon nadd acknowledge naga sadow and freedon nadd were two of the most powerful sith sorcerers to ever live papaltine himself was scared to perform some of his rituals because how dangerous they were, exar kun when on to grow more powerful while he was sitting on his thrown search for a threat to his power, later he got another permsnent power amp by marka ragnos, than another one when he stole the dark holocrom which had over 10,000 years of sith magic archemy rituals lightsaber skills ect, he absorbed all it acknowledge before destroying it, also the dark holocrom is the most powerful sith holocrom in galaxy history, when exar kun took the jedi library on ossuss he got another huge power up, the source say he was far more powerful than any ancient lord and even sith from revan and valkorion era since he was the galaxy greatest threat over 4000 years before the birth of luke Skywalker, vitiate was hidding when. Kun was still alive, it also too the combined force of over 2000+ jedis plus the republic with prep to pull on kun and take him out yet they couldn't kill him because he was too strong and wish to become a god.
Tales of the Jedi is extremely overrated imo. Dawn of the Jedi or The Old Republic comics are WAY better than TOTJ. I seriously don't understand the hype for TOTJ. 🤷♂️
nah. TOTJ is super campy and has a lot of cringe moments but it's still superior to DOTJ on influence alone (and DOTJ is kinda weaksauce, but not really the author's fault that it got canned after 3 arcs).
Tales of the Jedi! With the dinosaur Jedi, Jedi f-ing tree and Nomi Sunrider - the ugliest girl in Star Wars! Except for this, the story is... Ok. I liked it, wouldn't recommend reading. A lot of things are very cool though. My favourite parts is everything that happens on Onderon ( beast wars!) and story with Massassi.
My thing is The majority has not read the old legends comics or even the new Jedi order books we just got thrawn in live action in 2023 after 5 years of him in animation IT HAS NEVER BEEN A GUARANTEE THAT WE WILL SEE THIS THPE OF WRITING AGAIN now stop this nitpicking just read this and don't absorb any new media
Hey if you’re such big Star Wars fans why do mispronounce every single name in this book? Is it cuz you’re grifters, yeah that sounds about right. Also this book is fucking amazing.
My next comic review will likely be "Dark Empire DESTROYS The Rise of Skywalker (Review)"

Until a High Republic Comic Rips off the Spirit of Tales.
I bet my Money that a High Republic Publisher will Ripoff Tales of the Jedi, & KOTOR to sell their Books.

You learn something new everyday.
Even Their Holocron are Pyramid Shape to contrast tge Jedi's Cube.
26:58 (in the best Arnold voice) "Exar Kun, you son of a bitch!"
My exact thoughts!
In this case exar kun is Arnold because he is far more powerful than ulic qel droma
Keep spreading the love for the old EU and calling out the Filoniverse bullshit!
Many Thanks for the encouragement

Now that you read Tales of the Jedi, now is the time to play The Clone Wars 2002 game. There's a connection.
I'll review that when I start digging into the CW Multimedia Project.
I just played that game recently and it does tie in really well to TOTJ.
@@j.j.plagiarisms7149 I'll be looking forward to that. CW Multimedia Project is probably my favorite era in Star Wars.
Can you do a Genndy clone wars vs the atrocious TCW series 😅
Tales of the jedi D+ is the most disappointing thing since my son Dave Filoni.
“I mean how much more could you possibly f**k up the entire backstory to Jedi?”
Great video. Failoni's fake tales of the jedi will never be as legendary as the 90s comic.
I agree what you said about Ulic story line makes more sense than Luke in TLJ considering it just don’t make sense for Luke to be in that position due he never had the issues with the Jedi in his timeline if it was someone in the prequel era like Mace Windu or hell I can see Anakin doing the Jedi losing faith trope but not Luke Skywalker.
Anakin is more like an Anti-Hero character wise.
Luke was supposed to be the Old Jedi's Chance to Rebuild their Order.

I think there should be a star wars black series Exar Kun figure
Damn you Disney for not giving fans what they want

I just noticed that King Omen looks a lot like old Bane from Batman Beyond.
50 years into the future and Dave in a bacta tank still uses Ahsoka for a new series set 100 years after ROTJ.
I have TOTJ omnibus volume I & II as well as some of the original sets and graphic novels ❤
Is there an EU Book about Dooku's Backstory?
I don't know....?
We see hints of it in Legacy of the Jedi, with a young Dooku as friends with Lorian Nod, then an older Dooku training a young Qui-Gon.
@@saberiandream316 also we heard a name called Thame Cerulian.
Hey JJ Plagiarisms What Do You Think Of Star Wars Rebels. Could You Make A Review After You Finished Your Reviews Of Clone Wars Season 5 6 And 7. 👍👍
I will get to Rebels right after TCW. I'm still writing the Season 5 Review. Up to the Onderon Arc.
@@j.j.plagiarisms7149 Thanks
27:00 badass pose and cool edit
The TOTJ comics are still my favorite Star Wars story ever. I have read it many times and it still holds up.
Exar kun is leap and bounce far more powerful than revan reborn
Finoli chose the T.O.T.J. Name, cuz they Orginally wanted to Write an Anakin Prequel, but Gave it to Ahsoka & Dooku.
This doesn’t constitute stealing the name
9:49 heh, dude is literally called "Kith Fuck"

Andur
I definitely see Mark Hamill voice acting as Freedon Nadd 🤔😉 8:43
I don't think you appreciate how good it is all the Over criticism ruins the video a bit guess your trying to be entertaining?
Why wasn't Nomi's Surname called Skyrider?
Because Sunrider is a cool name.
Or better yet, why would we want a Skyrider when we could have a Sunrider? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
If Tales was supposed to be a Prequel, Exar & Ulic MIGHT as well be Anakin.
Why would Anakin come from a bygone era of the Old Republic and not the Galactic Republic?
Also, please keep in mind that my knowledge of the EU is very limited.
Exar kun was the papaltine of the old republic
Tales of the Jedi is extremely overrated imo. Dawn of the Jedi or The Old Republic comics are WAY better than TOTJ. I seriously don't understand the hype for TOTJ. 🤷♂️
Yes but no no but yes
🤡 you probably never read the books those are better than the filoniverse
@@alsimmonshellspawn6021 Wtf are you even talking about? 🤨
nah. TOTJ is super campy and has a lot of cringe moments but it's still superior to DOTJ on influence alone (and DOTJ is kinda weaksauce, but not really the author's fault that it got canned after 3 arcs).

Still writing the script. Almost done with Onderon.
