TV audiences have only just had their first taste of Star Wars' High Republic era with the first season of The Acolyte, but Marvel has been running comics set in that time period for the last four years. In a panel at this year's San Diego Comic Con on Thursday, however, the publisher announced that it is bringing the current phase of the series to an end.
Star Wars: The High Republic – Fear of the Jedi #1 is the first issue of a new ongoing comic that will wrap up Phase III of The High Republic by answering a long-standing question: what scares the Jedi? It's written by regular Star Wars comics scribe Cavan Scott, and drawn by Doctor Aphra artist Marika Cresta. Notably, the series will feature Jedi Master Kelnacca, the Wookiee Force user who featured prominently in The Acolyte.
