Star Wars #28 is written by Charles Soule and illustrated by Andres Genolet, with cover art by E.M. Gist.
And in the first issue of the new The High Republic series, a beacon of faith and spirituality shines brightly throughout the cosmos one hundred and fifty years before Starlight’s demise. Jedha. The Pilgrim Moon. The Kyber Heart. However, the holy city is becoming tenser, and gloomy times are ahead. As Jedha’s precarious peace starts to break down, Jedi Vildar Mac, a Jedi who is confident in both who he is and what he can become, comes. However, a nightmare is in store for you—a nameless fear that will live on in legend…
In another StarWars.com preview for The High Republic #1, when traveling to the Holy City of Jedha, Jedi Vildar Mac battles with nightmares brought on by his early years. Although many people travel to the Pilgrim Moon in search of solace and spiritual renewal, Mac is there as part of a Jedi Order-mandated posting.
