Star Wars: Republic #67

Part of Dark Horse's acclaimed Clone Wars era run, this 2004 installment of Star Wars: Republic presents a striking cover by Brian Ching — a determined young Jedi standing resolute in battle-worn robes, blue lightsaber raised and glowing against a stormy sky, the tagline "Great Power... Great Restraint..." framing the mood perfectly. The figure's torn cloak and steady gaze suggest someone tested but unbroken, capturing the tension that defined the Republic's finest warriors during this era. With Randy Stradley writing and Brandon Badeaux bringing the interior to life, issue #67's story "Forever Young" promises to live up to that evocative cover image.
