Star Wars: Jedi vs. Sith #3

The midpoint of Dark Horse's six-part battle for the soul of the Force arrives with issue three, and Andrew Robinson's cover makes the stakes unmistakably clear: a shaven-headed, dark-armored warrior crouches forward with a blue lightsaber in hand, his cape swept wide against a blood-red sky while shadowy combatants clash in the smoldering background. It's a tense, atmospheric composition that perfectly captures the grim tone of a galaxy-spanning ideological war. With Darko Macan writing and Ramón Bachs on interior art, this 2001 series continues to deliver a thoughtful, battle-hardened chapter in the ongoing struggle between light and dark.
