Star Wars: X-Wing Rogue Squadron #4

The finale of "The Rebel Opposition" arrives in this fourth and concluding chapter from Dark Horse, with a cover by Dave Dorman that puts the stakes front and center: a lone figure, hands raised in surrender, faces a wall of Imperial Stormtroopers with AT-ST walkers looming ominously in the background. It's a tense, ground-level composition that shifts the focus away from the stars and squarely onto the dangerous realities Rogue Squadron faces on foot. With Michael A. Stackpole and Mike Baron at the helm of the writing, this 1995 issue wraps up a four-part arc that's clearly been building toward a desperate confrontation.
