"In this last year of Lucasfilm’s epic decades-long partnership with Dark Horse Comics, the Oregon-based publisher will be releasing a four-part limited series titled Darth Maul: Son of Dathomir that will adapt the screenplays for what would have been the series finale of Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated series. Written by seasoned Star Wars comics scribe (and former editor) Jeremy Barlow with an artist to be announced, Darth Maul: Son of Dathomir sees the full-scale return of Darth Maul to the Star Wars universe and into a head-to-head battle with his former master Darth Sidious – aka, the Emperor. Barlow promises to fully delve into the world of Dathomir, as well as some of its inhabitants like Nightbrothers and even a new character called Brother Viscus."

Looking forward to this comic more than Rebels at the moment.  I am happy we'll be seeing more of Maul, Mother Talzin, and the Nightbrothers - though I'd prefer this to be an animated feature.

The more I see of REBELS and its Disney Princes and Princesses graphics the more I am dulled on it. I can almost pick out all the male and female characters they have created that correspond to characters Disney has already had movies on.

Picked up the first volume today, this is the first time in years that I've bought a comic - the CW series was strong enough to pull me in for this final Maul arc, even in comic form. 

Its a seemingly popular series, as my local comic shop has sold out of it twice already, and is on its third order.  They really should animate this arc and release it on Disney as a stand alone movie or as a direct-to-DVD feature.

The story has been good so far, I'm looking forward to the next issue.  I saw the cover for volume #4 - it looks like the end I envisioned for these characters may come to pass.

I have been tempted to pick this up myself.
