Star Wars: The Clone Wars was a comic book series published by Dark Horse Comics. The first issue was released on September 10, 2008, the series ran for 12 issues tied into the Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated series. The first story arc was written by Henry Gilroy, the head writer for the first season of the show. The series was supposed to be composed of only 6 issues but it was so successful that on January 18, 2009, Dark Horse editor Randy Stradley announced 6 more issues. Those issues were composed of two three-part stories, co-written by Henry Gilroy and series writer Steven Melching. On December 28, 2009, Randy Stradley announced the cancellation of the series due to the young comics readers market being too small.^[2]
