'Maul: Shadow Lord' Is a Fine Prequel to a Great TV Show The latest 'Star Wars' animated series plays with some interesting ideas, but struggles to do more than gesture to them with its slow-burn pacing.

Crítica: Maul – Señor de las Sombras 1×01-02 Tengo que reconocer que hace cinco años me costó entrar en The Bad Batch, no sabía hasta qué punto era interesante seguirlos y es verdad que la serie aunque me gustó bastante, me dejó frío. Con Maul no es el caso, él es mi Boba Fett solo que interesante.

Love the new #MaulShadowLord show!

#MaulShadowLord is now peak Star Wars animation. The two-episode premiere is astounding. Set a year after Order 66, Darth Maul is on a revenge spree and it is glorious! Big question, will Devon Izara become Darth Talon? #starwars #animation

The first two episodes of #StarWars #MaulShadowLord provide an action-packed & thematically rich story. The visuals are stunning & the police investigation aspects of the series are engaging. It proved reminiscent of the work of Michael Mann & films such as Heat.

Ok

#MaulShadowLord

Très agréable de voir avec #Maulshadowlord une évolution dans la DA des séries animées Star Wars. C'est plus engageant que The Bad Batch, après c'est un peu facile quand on sait l'aura qu'a Dark Maul, c'est le vilain iconique après Vador.
J'ai beaucoup apprécié et j'ai hâte de voir la suite.

Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord Review – A Visually Striking Series That Fills the Gaps and Reinforces Why Star Wars Animation Leads the Way Star Wars Maul Shadow Lord delivers stunning animation, intense action and fills key gaps in the Star Wars timeline with a deeper look at Maul.

Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord fills key gaps in the timeline while delivering stunning animation and some of the most intense action in the franchise. A must-watch for fans and another win for Star Wars animation. #StarWars #MaulShadowLord

Watching the first episode of Maul Shadow Lord, and i love his entrance, and i liked the transition to the title. So far, the show definitely leans into the whole crime theme. #MaulShadowLord #StarWars

#MaulShadowLord is already feeling really fun. Crime noir but make it the Dark Side. This is gonna be an all timer.

If you are avoiding spoilers and seeing this, now is a good time to turn off social media because spoilers are out there. However, I will not post any new images for at least 36 hrs.

Much like the jolts given to Star Wars live action television with ANDOR and THE ACOLYTE, the first two episodes of #MaulShadowLord take all the ingredients that defined Star Wars animation so far, added some new ones, and shook 'em all up a bunch.

Twists and turns, down a winding road...

Star Wars: Maul - Shadow Lord Season 1 Review: This Sith Lord Still Shows Potential #MaulShadowLord

Star Wars: #MaulShadowLord premiered on Disney+ today! I’m so grateful to have worked on such a special show.
Here’s a look at one of the first tasks I got as an intern! I learned how to work with the show's brushstroke painting style by recreating an environment from episode 1.
