Star Wars fans can look forward to a brand-new prequel set long before the events ofStar Wars Episode I: ThePhantom Menace. It’s coming soon, and there’s even a cheeky little preview for you to enjoy.
WhileThe Phantom Menacemay not be the most belovedStar Warsstory, the events leading up to what would be the fall of the Jedi have all fascinated fans.

Kelnacca is the perfect character to bridge the gap between the time of Leslye Headland’s spectacular series to the age of Starlight Beacon, the threat of Marchion Ro, and the marauding Nihil. In this comic, we will learn more about one of the most intriguing aspects of Kelnacca’s design: the meaning behind those mysterious tattoos. Along the way we’ll see the struggle of a Padawan and a master who is stoic, wise, and, ultimately, a true practitioner of Light and Life."
The new prequel will arrive next week, but you can take a look at some preview pages overhere. Happy reading!
