This Week in Star Wars Comics: Insurgency Rising and a LOT of Legends

Part two, Republic Under Siege, begins on November 20), an enigmatic Inquisitor emerges, confronting Luke Skywalker. The renegade Imperial warlord, Ubrik Adelhard, confronts the budding New Republic and their squad, which is headed by Poe Dameron’s father, Kes. This conflict will reach its climax in this issue!
