Star Wars: The High Republic #10

Two Jedi warriors hold their ground, lightsabers blazing — one green, one blue — as armored figures press in from the shadows on either side in this 2021 Marvel entry in the Star Wars: The High Republic series. The tension radiating from Phil Noto's cover perfectly suits "The Shadow of the Nihil Chapter 2: Out of Balance, Out of Time," with writer Cavan Scott and artist Georges Jeanty continuing what promises to be a gripping arc. Whether you're following the High Republic era from the start or just discovering it, this issue's atmosphere of two Jedi standing back-to-back against encroaching danger makes for a genuinely compelling addition to the run.
