The Clone Wars to Return with Episode 100 on January 5, 2013

You may or may not realize it, but The Clone Wars is taking almost one month off for it's mid-season break.

When it returns on January 5, 2013 the Droid (D-Squad) arc will continue and clone trooper junkies will be thrown a bone by the inclusion of a new Clone Commando named Gregor who has been previously discussed on this blog.

I guessed that Gregor would be suffering from amnesia based on his Steven Seagal like beard that we saw in the season five trailers.  On a side note, if you haven't seen Hard to Kill, you may want to rethink your life choices.

Cartoon Network has released a press release discussing it's new Saturday morning episodes kicking off in January.  Included is a more detailed description of Star Wars: The Clone Wars episode 100, Missing in Action.

"Season five of Lucasfilm Animation’s Star Wars: The Clone Wars ushers in the 100th episode of the series, “Missing in Action.” In a nearly vacant town on a strange planet, the intrepid members of D-Squad discover Gregor, a clone commando who has lost his memory, and is toiling away as a dishwasher. The all-droid squad and their gruff leader must help Gregor regain his memory so they can steal a heavily guarded shuttle and return to the Republic."
