Star Wars: The Thrawn Trilogy

A concise, three-issue adaptation of the first novel in Timothy Zahn's landmark "Thrawn Trilogy," this 2009 Dark Horse comic series brings the legendary Grand Admiral Thrawn's return to the Star Wars Expanded Universe into a visual format. The story, set years after the original trilogy's conclusion, follows the New Republic's struggle against the remnants of the Empire as Thrawn masterminds a devastating campaign. While this series is a direct adaptation, it stands as a key gateway to the larger, acclaimed Thrawn saga that redefined post-Return of the Jedi storytelling.
