Star Wars: X-Wing Rogue Squadron #25

This oversized 48-page special from Dark Horse puts the spotlight squarely on Baron Fel, depicted here in Imperial flight gear and holding a pilot's helmet as a formation of TIE Interceptors sweeps through a star-filled viewport behind him — Timothy Bradstreet's cover art giving the character a weathered, quietly commanding presence. The title "The Making of Baron Fel" promises the kind of backstory that fans of Stackpole's expanding Rogue Squadron universe have been eager to see. It's a satisfying, self-contained package that showcases one of Star Wars' most compelling Imperial figures at his most intriguing.
