BURBANK, Calif. (June 22, 2009) - Clone Troopers take the front line in four action-packed episodes from
STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS, coming to DVD September 15, 2009 from Warner Home Video and Lucasfilm Ltd.. Fans will discover a new breed of hero in

STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS - CLONE COMMANDOS ($14.98, SRP) features four exciting episodes from the hugely popular Cartoon Network series, including "Rookies," "Storm Over Ryloth," "Innocents of Ryloth" and "Liberty on Ryloth."
In "Rookies," Captain Rex and Commander Cody must inspire a rookie unit - posted alone on a distant moon - to believe in themselves in order to stave off a Separatist Droid Commando attack.
