Staring
Dee Bradley Baker, Michelle Ang
Overview
It is time for the new Era.
The 'Bad Batch' of elite and experimental clones make their way through an ever-changing galaxy in the immediate aftermath of the Clone Wars.
Review
Star Wars: The Bad Batch
It’s no Clone Wars or Rebels, but it’s far better than Resistance. Had a solid storyline and decent characters plus a few nice tie ins to the aforementioned stalwarts.
