"Blood of the Empire" traces the Sith's activities leading up to the game

The second issue of Star Wars: The Old Republic's webcomic, entitled "Blood of the Empire," was released yesterday. The comic traces the actions of the Sith's adventures culminating in events that lead to the player's entrance into the game. The comic is being developed by the Bioware writing team, LucasArts and Dark Horse Comics and will introduce players to key characters in the game.

So far our impressions of the comic have been good. You may think that a comic chronicling the Sith might portray the Dark Side users as completely soulless, but we found them refreshingly human. But don't worry, they still kick butt. For an intriguing look at the Dark Side of The Force, check out "Blood of the Empire."
