This week we talk all about the one-two punch that is Republic Under Siege #2 and 3, which brings us to the midpoint of Alex Segura’s brilliant Battle of Jakku maxi-series.

Issue 122

It’s Keeve and Lourna’s galaxy and we’re just living in it. Fear of the Jedi #1 picks up right where we left off in Tempest Breaker and their HRA Annual short story. Both lead characters bear the weight of heroism as they confront the Nihil and grapple with their journeys so far.

One book to chat about means we get to go beat-by-beat! So strap in, fire up that Vector and let’s ride!
