Republic 61


Publisher's summary


While the Clone Wars continue to hold the attention of the galaxy, sinister plans are afoot within the Senate. Senator Bail Organa's ship is attacked by pirates, and former Supreme Chancellor Valorum returns to warn any who will listen of treachery behind the scenes. With the Jedi away at war, it's up to citizen Senators to fight for the preservation of the Republic. But what chance do they have against the power of the Sith?

Continuity


Members appear on the Jedi High Council within the comic who had either died previously or was not on it at the time of the comic, Yarael Poof who died in the comic Star Wars: Zam Wesell; Depa Billaba who fell into a coma while fighting on Haruun Kal. Their appearance on the Council is treated by this page as non-canonical.

Eeth Koth also makes an appearance who had died at the Battle of Geonosis. However, as of The Clone Wars: Wild Space his death was retconned and was further cemented later by The Clone Wars episode of Grievous Intrigue thus his place is on the Council is no longer suspect.

Finis Valorum's death in the comic was also retconned and nullified by The Clone Wars episode The Lost One. No official explanation of his survival was ever given to reconcile the two events. However, given The Clone Wars T-canon status Valorum must have survived or faked his death and resurfaced later.
