You've got to be freakin kidding me.
GENERAL GRIEVOUS?
I mean seriously, the thing reeks of anime plagiarism.
Nothing against anime, but the atmosphere and mood of the original star wars trilogy is nothing like it.
granted not much is known so far, but the name and illustration remind me of a great action figure playtoy... not a villian with charisma and depth.
lucas' star wars universe is his own. he has every right to create, destroy, and profit from whatever he dreams up. still, i can't help but think he would be disappointed with episodes 1 and 2 if he could somehow see them a day after releasing Empire Strikes Back. perhaps by choice (going after a more lucrative demographic), he is alienating at least one fan who used to love his work.
