Comic Book Review: Knights of the Old Republic #23

As the gigantic Daze/Knights story arc comes to an end for Knights of the Old Republic, Issue #23 sets readers up for en explosive ending, in a battle between the Mandalorians and the Taris Resistance.

After surviving a near-death encounter at the hands of his former childhood sweetheart Shel, who believes he killed her brother, Zayne and the Hidden Bekks form a treaty with the Taris Resistance in a mission to kill Cassus Fett. When Zayne is assigned to help Raana Tey and Shel scout out the enemy base, the Shel and Tey plan to kill Zayne using Shel's dead brother's lightsaber.

While much of the comic was just the buildup to #24, it was a very entertaining issue. As always, Dustin Weaver's art is spectacular. I can't suggest this series highly enough at the moment, especially to anyone who's played the KOToR video games. I really hope the conclusion of this series doesn't let us down; I would hate it if they ruined the stellar job they've done with the series this year.
