Dark Horse has announced their next foray into publishing comics for iPhone and iPod Touch devices in the form of three distinct Star Wars titles. “Star Wars Empire: Betrayal,” the first four issue arc of the “Empire” series set shortly before “Star Wars: A New Hope,” will be offered alongside the two-chapter “Star Wars Legacy: Broken” and the one-shot “Star Wars Clone Wars: Shipyards of Doom.” CBR News spoke with Dark Horse's Star Wars editor Randy Stradley about the publishers latest offerings in the iTunes store.
As to why each series was chosen for adaptation, Stradley began with “Empire,” saying, “It's an easy point of entrance for fans who may only be familiar with the films, plus it features all of the best 'bad guy' characters, Darth Vader, Boba Fett, and the Emperor. Also, the fact that the 'Empire: Betrayal' story actually begins a few weeks before the events in 'A New Hope' will intrigue readers who aren't familiar with the width and breadth of the Expanded Universe.”
