I don't know about Redemption as I haven't read it yet, but pretty much all aspects of the comic series are flawed.
Villian: Predictable; Exar Kun, jedi, led to be a dark lord of the sith, challenges and kills master, loses in the end.
Hero: Perfect; Nomi Sunrider, Jedi warrior with no flaws, etc.
Plot: Horrible; Exar plans to dominate the galaxy using Sith magic. In short no plot at all.
And have a series of small skirmishes that's labeled as "war".
In short, they suck.
