Star Wars: The High Republic Adventures, Vol. 2 — Daniel Jose Older

Journey to an even longer time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, and witness new adventures of Lula and her fellow Padawans in the Republic’s golden age!The High Republic is an unexplored period in Star Wars history, set hundreds of years before the events of the Skywalker Saga—when the Jedi were at their height and Master Yoda was much younger, and still training Padawans in the field. It is here where we find Jedi Padawans Farzala and Qort, who are taking a break from the ongoing battle against the dangerous marauders known as the Nihil. As part of a secret mission, they join an aging Jedi Knight on the starship The Vessel to negotiate a peace treaty with the Hutt crime family. Hey, what could go wrong? As it turns out: literally everything. Star Wars: The High Republic Adventures is part of a broader storytelling initiative exploring a mysterious, bygone era of the Galactic Republic through comics and prose. Collects Star Wars: The High Republic Adventures issues #6–8, the 2021 Free Comic Book Day story, and the 2021 Annual featuring a host of talent including Daniel José Older, Nick Brokenshire, Harvey Tolibao, Pow Rodrix, Toni Bruno, Charles Soule, Sam Beck, Claudia Gray, Jason Loo, Justina Ireland, Yael Nathan, and Jess Lonergan!
