Star Wars The Bad Batch Drops on Disney+ May 4, 2021-New Trailer

One of my favorite Ebay Sellers has all of these issues except 19 for under cover: aweinc

No Aja cover on 21, but they have the Snowtrooper action figure variant.

Also keep in mind that Fennec Shand will be in Bad Batch, so keep your eyes peeled for her first comics appearance ( mean other than Screen Comix which most comic collectors seem to be dismissing). Remember that War of the Bounty Hunters is coming up and she very well may be in that cast of characters.

@drunkwooky I fully am placing the burden the responsibility on you when it comes to pointing any issue that she first appears in lol.

Ok, then so far it’s Mandalorian Screen Comix. So far, no comic with art that isn’t screen shots of live action.

The Jorge Molina variant cover for Star Wars #23 is the first cover appearance of SCAR Squadron. This cover was initially released in a 1:25 ratio.

Not that you need my seal of approval (or anybody does for that matter) but this checks out after I fact checked it. First cover appearance of SCAR Squadron/Task Force 99.

Mile High has a pretty cool Noto one for #37 as well:

Hope we’re all still on the same page that this squad being the same as Clone Force 99 is looking pretty unlikely right now, so spend accordingly.

Still some cool covers/books to own.

Right. Agreed. It’s just the lawyer in me not wanting people coming back angry that they bough Star Wars 21 expecting it to be a $1000 book.

LoL understand. I found them for cover or less but every copy on Ebay is way over priced.

I found all the issues but 21 on my comic shop for $4 or less.

And honestly, that’s all that should be spent. Right now the speculation is the most speculative speculation out there. Maybe only Mephisto Wandavision speculation was more speculative.

Kreel was a cool character anyway so that’s definitely stuff I won’t mind having for around cover price.

A little more connective tissue between Clone Force 99 and Task Force 99:

This reference book on Stormtroopers states that Task Force 99 was named after Clone Force 99. I’m not sure upon what they base this as the Jason Aaron comic came out years before Clone Wars Season 7, but it does state that.

Appreciate all this info. I scored some cheap books from your knowledge that Ebay and other places have them priced as keys.

Aaawwww shoot I wanna see what vintagecomicsandtoys says. Already doubles up on the issue @drunkwooky mentioned.

The Bad Batch is animated??? Damn, I thought it was live action. Rats.

The season finale of Season 7 could have been claymation by the local fifth grade and it probably would have sent chills down my spine.

I just finished season 7 today(2nd time) after an entire series watch (never watched season 1-6) and man I gotta say this was a GREAT series. I passed on so many if these figures lol. Now it’s like I want them. Seeing the Emperors plan come through was crazy… there was no hope for the Jedi. Their allegiance to the republic had them blinded.

The prices on all of the figures have gone insane in the same way comics have. Absolutely unreal. Ahsoka was always popular but she had topped out at about $250. Certainly not the case now. Just saw one sell for $900 today in a group.
Similar to Ultimate Fallout 4 at 5 Below stores…for months, 5 Below had “the vintage collection” figures by the case stacked.
Amazon could barely give away Ahsoka and the last wave. They offered them as an “ad on” special for $3.
Walmart ran a Black Friday special with an amazing set of 8 figures for $20 bucks as well.
I’ve seen quite a few folks like yourself that have watched the Clone Wars and really enjoyed it.
Many people who also didn’t think much of Ahsoka and felt she was just a toss away character made for kids have come to understand how great she is.
I’m really glad you watched and enjoyed it!!!

Yeah that growth from season 1 to 7 and that build up to Anikans turn… was heart breaking. I felt it… same as with the prequels which I enjoyed. Star Wars I’ve always enjoyed but as I’ve gotten older I’ve come to realize the emotions I have to this franchise.
