Star Wars - Império das Trevas

In the late 1990s, the Brazilian publisher Abril/Controljornal brought a new chapter to the Star Wars saga with Império das Trevas, a six-issue series that expands the lore of the Galactic Empire. Written and drawn by a team of local talent, this comic stands as a key piece of Brazil's contribution to the Star Wars expanded universe, offering a darker, more political take on the imperial regime. Its significance lies in being one of the few officially licensed Star Wars comics produced outside the United States, showcasing the global reach of the franchise.
