Summary: Zygerrian slavers are behind the sudden disappearance of an entire colony of people on the planet Kiros. As Anakin and Ahsoka rush to defuse a series of bombs planted by the slavers, Obi-Wan must fight with their imposing leader.

So we've come off the Umbaran arc which was pretty much universally liked. Can kidnapped keep up the pace? Regardless, Ahsoka will be back in action.

I'm really hoping the adaptation is good. Looking forward to it!

Hopefully this can follow he last arc in the level of quality.

I've mixed feelings on this one, yet they're generally positive.

It was pretty good.

Anakin will always be a slave to his emotions this shows.

This was a pretty good adaptation of Issue 1. I mean, they used an actual Zygerrian as the General who fights Obi-Wan (in the comic it was a Besalisk). But otherwise it was an incredibly faithful adaptation.

I look forward to seeing Slaves of the Republic!

Having not read the comic, I went in with a clean slate. I thought it was a good episode. I liked how Obi-Wan distracted the badguy by letting himself get beat up. That was very Jedi like Laughing
