The High Republic Phase Three: Trials of the Jedi Preview
We are so back baby! With the launch of The High Republic Phase 3: Trials of the Jedi, we're previewing what's to come for our heroes as we reunite with them one year after the fall of Starlight Beacon. What exactly are the "trials" of the Jedi? Is confronting fear the destiny of a Jedi? How exactly do we solve the Nameless problem? We're exploring all of these ideas and so much more as we try to define the Jedi's role in the galaxy.
Plus, we recap some (old) NYCC news and discuss several key takeaways from "SHADOWS OF STARLIGHT" issue one.
