A note about the comics. If you're unable or unwilling to pick up the comics to read along, I'd encourage people to read along with the excellent Synopsis' that tersa posts. It's no where as good as reading the actual comic, but it would be enough to give you an understanding of what's going on.

How are the comics, quality-wise?

The art is mediocre at best, but since the story is written by Gaider and polished up by Alexander Freed (who wrote the Imperial Agent story in SWTOR), it's not stupid painful or lore idiotic.

Unlike the novels, it assumes some game decisions that make some players want to burn them in effigy, but I suspect some of the other happenings are going to be considered world canon going forward. Good stuff.

I actually didn't find the art bad at all, it's certainly nothing in the same realm as the Mass Effect comics, despite them both being dark horse books.

Yeah, but the Mass Effect artwork is terrible, so that's not really saying much about how good it is. :)

A passing grade is good. Getting straight As is just showing off.
