The Stark Hyperspace War by: John Ostrander Pencilled by: Davide Fabbri Inked by: Christian Dalla Vecchia

Summary: An Act of Piracy Smuggler and pirate Iaco Stark's "commercial combine" has disrupted the production of bacta, the most important healing agent in the galaxy. By cornering the market on bacta, Stark hopes to amass a fortune. A Galaxy on the Brink of War But other forces within the Republic have aligned themselves with the Trade Federation, and are hoping to use Stark's aggression as an excuse for their own military build up. The Jedi to the Rescue Two young Jedi, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Quinlan Vos, undergo a baptism of fire as they join their masters and the Jedi Council in an attempt to untangle the many deceits and intrigues, and to bring the criminals to justice before the Republic's thousand years peace is broken. Before the outbreak of the Clone Wars, the Jedi were involved in another major battle: The Stark Hyperspace War Review:   A nice tale. We see Obi-Wan and Quinlan meet for the first time. A very important friendship for the two, though Quinlan later is made to forget it when his mind is wiped. We also see a Wookiee Jedi, which is always cool. This tale also shows how the Trade Federation managed to gain such power and how corrupt they truly are. Back to the Rise of the Empire Era. Back to Star Wars Eras.
