Star Wars: Dark Force Rising

In 1998, Dark Horse Comics launched Star Wars: Dark Force Rising, a single-issue adaptation of Timothy Zahn's novel, written by Mike Baron with art by Terry Dodson. This comic brought the second chapter of the acclaimed Thrawn trilogy to the page, bridging the gap between the original films and the expanded universe. It remains a key entry for fans exploring the post-Return of the Jedi era through comics.
