Dark Horse Comics and Lucasfilm continue to explore the High Republic in a new comic series, Star Wars: The High Republic Adventures–Pathfinders. Legendary Star Wars writer George Mann (Hyperspace Stories: Qui-Gon) is joined by artists Partha Pratim (Miles Morales: Spider-Man), Jagdish Kumar (G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero), Michael Atiyeh (Star Wars: Hyperspace Stories: The Bad Batch), and letterer Comicraft on this new series, with cover art by Jake Bartok (Star Wars: Tales from the Nightlands). Vincenzo Riccardi (Magic: The Gathering: Untold Stories – Elspeth) will illustrate issue #5.
Set about 20 years after Phase II of The High Republic, a brand new team of Republic Pathfinders is dispatched to a distant corner of the galaxy to investigate the strange death of a Jedi Master. But as the team wades into a web of mystery, they discover not everything about this mission is as it seems. Can the team save the day and solve the Jedi’s mysterious demise?
‘I’m more than excited to be venturing back to the era of the Pathfinders and venturing out into the unexplored regions for a fantastic new adventure,” said Mann. “Partha is doing such a wonderful job on the art, and I can’t wait for people to meet the new crew and join them on the search for answers in this dark and unusual mystery. Plus, there may be one or two cameos from a few familiar faces, too.”
“Working on Pathfinders has been such a rewarding experience,” agreed Pratim. “I’m excited for fans to finally see this new adventure and dive into the galaxy we’ve been building.”
