Star Wars: Lost Tribe of the Sith - Spiral #3

The third chapter of this five-part saga arrives with a cover by Paul Renaud that pulls no punches: a red-skinned Sith warrior stands in the foreground, crimson lightsaber blazing amid licks of flame, while behind him a massive winged creature looms with a rider mounted on its back and smaller flying beasts circling in the night sky. The tagline "An Ancient Evil Awakens!" sets the tone perfectly for a story rooted in the dark, isolated Sith culture explored throughout this Lost Tribe of the Sith arc. With John Jackson Miller writing and Andrea Mutti on interior art, this 2012 Dark Horse entry keeps the tension of the Spiral storyline building nicely at its midpoint.
