STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS - "MISSING IN ACTION" - UPDATED
Lucasfim has released two clip and a description from "Missing in Action," the episode 100th episode of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, premiering on Saturday, Jan. 5 at 9:30 a.m. (ET/PT) on Cartoon Network.
To watch the first clip, CLICK HERE.

Here's how the episode is described:
"Given the series' title and its backdrop of galactic warfare, Star Wars: The Clone Wars often focuses on the valiant and tireless clone troopers tasked to defend the Republic from darkness. The vivid personalities of these soldiers often challenge many assumptions about the nature of clones, and has created a roster of individual heroes. This tradition continues in the 100th broadcast episode, 'Missing in Action,' with the intriguing addition of Gregor, a Republic clone commando suffering from amnesia who has seemingly forgotten his true nature."
NEW CRUSADERS: DARK TOMORROW
Archie Comics has announced a May launch for New Crusaders: Dark Tomorrow from its Red Circle Comics super-hero imprint.
The book is written by Ian Flyyn, with art by Alitha Martinez and covers by Phil Jimenez and Ben Bates. The series will be available day-and-date digitally.
"This new series will introduce some new characters to the team, and some familiar faces to the Red Circle universe will be back," editor Paul Kaminski said. "Dark Tomorrow will take our kids back to high school, where they begin to juggle their super-hero identities with the normal trials of high school life. The 6-issue limited series format will allow us to pace out the long-form story just as writer Ian Flynn has crafted it over time, and that story is intense."
"New Crusaders: Dark Tomorrow is a fantastic first issue," said Red Circle Comics President Mike Pellerito. "Not only is it filled with suspense, mystery and intrigue, but it's not a dream or an imaginary tale. Dark Tomorrow is a tale only the radical Red Circle would attempt! Plus, it's still only $2.99! But in all seriousness, we couldn't be more excited for this story to kick off and take our readers on a new journey with these characters we've all grown to love with a passion."
