Star Wars: Dark Times #9

Part four of the five-part "Parallels" arc arrives with a cover by Zach Howard that's hard to look away from — a massive, snarling bestial creature dominates the image, its rider wielding a weapon overhead as dust and debris explode around them. The cover tagline "Attack on the Jedi Younglings!" makes clear that the stakes in this 2008 Dark Horse series have never felt more desperate. Writers Mick Harrison and artists Dave Ross and Lui Antonio bring the Dark Times era's post-Order 66 dread to vivid life.
