Star Wars: Union (1999-2000) #2

Star Wars: Union #2

by Michael A. Stackpole, Robert Teranishi (Illustrator), Duncan Fegredo (Illustrator)

As the wedding approaches, Luke Skywalker has a troubling vision: somewhere in their future, a dark hand is grasping at him and his new wife, Mara Jade. But nothing can shake the young Jedi Knight's resolve, not a solemn ceremony of Jedi accepting the Union, nor even a night of carousing and revelry deep within the city canyons of Coruscant.

"I liked it." - 3 out of 5 star rating.

Okay. Now I get it. This series is a slow burn for sure. Issue #1 was entirely a 'happy people in happy land' set-up, with issue #2 starting to introduce to assassination plot and those who are behind it.

While Luke and Mara think about their honey moon, a group is out to take them out when they least expect it.

Looking forward to seeing what happens next and things do seem like they are coming together nicely.

Onward.

Of course it wouldn’t be the Skywalkers if there wasn’t some Imperial trouble to interrupt the peace!

I can't tell you how many times over the years that I have read Union. If there was ever a graphic novel/comic that I wished was a full-fledged novel, it is this one. I loved Mara Jade from the very first time we meet her in Timothy Zahn's Heir to the Empire and new her and Luke were destined so when Union became available, I grabbed it and never let go. Might be corny at times but so much fun, so much Star Wars-ian brilliance. And yes, this is part of the Legends timeline and has nothing to do with Disney's future but I don't care because I just love this story so much.
