Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Another outstanding graphic novel by John Ostrander. Again, the theme is Quinlan Vos and his Padawan, Aayla Secura. As with Twilight, which introduced Vos, an excellent story of how he tries to remember himself and regain control after his memory was wiped by a drug called Glitteryll (I believe it's a form of Spice). Vos is dispatched by the Jedi Council to Kiffex, a prison world near Kiffu, Vos's homeworld. On Kiffex a prison compound is mysteriously destroyed, which was what the Council wanted Vos to investigate. There, he meets his former master, Tholme, and finds Villie the Devaronian again. Without Villie, Darkness would have been a 3 or 4, but he always manages to do something funny. Darkness was a great story about the Anzati, which are essentially a Star Wars version of vampires. The art was even superb in Darkness, as are most TPB's by Jan Duursema.
The one problem with this book was the binding. TERRIBLE! After reading it once, it fell apart in my hands. The pages stayed together, but they fell out of the cover. When reading this, always keep super glue handy. Still, this graphic novel is easily worth the $12.95 retail price because of the story and art.

Despite his successful mission on Dathomir, the Jedi Council still feels that Quinlan Vos walks dangerously close to the dark side. Kiffex, a prison planet under watch by the Guardians, is suddenly thrust into chaos when an unidentified enemy decimates a security compound. Quinlan Vos is specifically requested to investigate because of his Guardian ancestry, and he soon finds himself on another deadly mission. Developing subplots first introduced in Twilight and Infinity's End and debuting new Star Wars characters, Darkness is a harrowing tale of horror and adventure.
