The TOTJ (Tales of the Jedi) series is one of the best series they've had. It starts out strong and gets weaker as the series continues, but the first 5 issues are very good. The same can be said of Dark Empire. The first 6 issues (Dark Empire I) are very good. DE II and Empire's End get progressively worse (the Emperor keeps coming back again and again and again). DE II and Empire's End are kind of like most of the EU novels, super weapon after super weapon. That gets old after a while.

The X-Wing series is probably the best series they've ever done though. The comics lead right into the novels, which is kind of cool since once you finish the comics, you can go right into the books.
