This week marks the release of the printed edition of
The Old Republic #1 "Threat of Peace." This series was originally printed online at the official
Star Wars: The Old Republic website last year. Writer Rob Chestney and artist Alex Sanchez help set the stage for the new MMO video game world set 3,650 years before
A New Hope. You know the story: the Jedi must stop the Sith from taking over the galaxy. But this is before the "rule of two," so anything can happen.
Look for two distinct covers on this issue. Benjamin Carré has the jaunty Jedi version, while Attik Studios produces a Sith styled one. This is the first of three issues.
UPDATE: Collectors take note that the Attik Studios variant cover is shipped in ratios of 1:5 with the Carré cover, so it will not be as easy to find. Your local shop may even charge a premium for this issue.
