The Star Wars: The High Republic subseries has now embarked on its third phase. Phase I takes place 200 years before the Skywalker Saga, and Phase II is 150 years before the first. But Phase III takes place following Phase I, so the early works in Phase III have the difficult task of bridging the gaps between the events of Phase I and Phase II while setting up the storyline for Phase III.Star Wars: The High Republic – Shadows of Starlight #1 begins a new series that explores the time immediately following the end of Phase I and the destruction of the Starlight Beacon. In particular, the series focuses on how the established Jedi Council and ordinary Jedi deal with the continuing threat of the Nihil marauders as well as the Nameless — creatures that feed on fear and have the ability to turn Force-sensitve people to calcified husks. Charles Soule’s writing, Ibraim Roberson’s artwork, Fer Sifuentes-Sujo’s coloring and Travis Lanham’s lettering bridge the gaps between the phases and show the devastating effects of Phase I on the Jedi Order.Throughout Shadows of Starlight #1, Soule uses the Jedi’s instatement of the Guardian Protocols to provide an overarching view of how the Jedi respond in crisis. While the Jedi state they are not at war, Soule shows how the Jedi react when facing a dangerous enemy specifically targeting them. The Guardian Protocols bear many similarities to how the Jedi function in wartime — as seen during the Clone Wars. Thus, Soule continues to connect the Star Wars eras and show how the Jedi Order could eventually evolve into the Order seen in the prequel trilogy. He includes the surprise return of a character from Phase II of the subseries, and through this character, examines how threats like the Nameless can drive good people to make terrible decisions. By including this character’s descent into darkness alongside the introduction of the Guardian Protocols, Soule implies that the Guardian Protocols, could also lead down the path of fear and darkness if the Jedi are not careful.RELATED: Marvel Comics Celebrates Star Wars Life Day with Variant Covers
