Star Wars: Jedi Knights #5

Three Jedi stand ready against a blood-red cosmic backdrop on Rahzzah's striking cover: a bearded human Jedi holds a blue lightsaber aloft, a determined young woman in front of him raises her own blue blade, and a glowing Yoda crouches at the fore with green lightsaber drawn — while the looming, shadowed face of a hulking alien threat fills the background. Marc Guggenheim's "Before the Fall" storyline continues here with art by Madibek Musabekov and colors by Luis Guerrero, suggesting high tension in whatever confrontation this issue holds. For fans following the Prequel era's Jedi Order, this fifth issue delivers a visually compelling lineup of warriors facing something formidable.
