Star Wars: Republic #75

Two lightsaber-wielding figures clash in fierce combat on Jan Duursema's cover — a wild-haired, robed elder strikes with a green blade while a fierce, dark-clad warrior counters with a red one, the crossed sabers crackling with tension against an ominous interior backdrop. This is part two of the four-part "Siege of Saleucami" arc, with John Ostrander writing and Duursema also handling interior art alongside inker Dan Parsons. It's a solid chapter in Dark Horse's Clone Wars–era run, and the cover alone makes a compelling case for what's at stake inside.
