Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace - Manga

Adapted from George Lucas's blockbuster film, this two-issue manga from Dark Horse presents the story of The Phantom Menace through the distinctive, dynamic art of Kia Asamiya. Released alongside the movie's debut, the series offers a visually unique take on the Jedi Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi's discovery of young Anakin Skywalker on Tatooine. Asamiya's stylized, fast-paced panels bring a fresh energy to the podrace and lightsaber duel with Darth Maul, making it a memorable early fusion of Japanese manga aesthetics with the Star Wars universe.
