The High Republic Phase III launches this week with the Shadows of Starlight #1 (of 4), an emotional rollercoaster of an issue by Charles Soule, Ibraim Roberson, Protobunker’s Fer Sifuentes-Sujo, VC’s Travis Lanham, Carlos Lao, Mikey J. Basso, Danny Khazem and Mark Paniccia. It kicks of this new phase with the ramifications of the Nihil’s presence, the Jedi fears and offers hints about events seen in the Prequel Trilogy as the Jedi mission is altered in the face of confusion and uncertainty. Chris Werms joins us for a discussion of this critical issue.
Bounty Hunters #39 and Darth Vader #39 continue the Dark Droids event, with T’onga facing the cold reality of a promise made to Valance, while the Dark Lord of the Sith gets to the root of his vexatious issues and gets his groove back.
