Star Wars: Age of Republic - Anakin Skywalker #1

Part of Marvel's 2019 Star Wars: Age of Republic anthology series, this single-issue spotlight puts Anakin Skywalker front and center — blue lightsaber ignited, Jedi robes battle-worn, set against a fiery battlefield scarred by debris and falling meteors. Paolo Rivera's cover does quiet, confident work: Anakin's determined gaze and ready stance say everything about a warrior caught between duty and something harder to name. With Jody Houser writing and art by Cory Smith and Wilton Santos, "The Sacrifice" promises an intimate look at the Clone Wars–era hero at his most tested.
