Last week, StarWars.com announced a new series of comics from Marvel Comics called Star Wars: The High Republic: Trail of Shadows. The new series will kick off in October will feature a noir-style mystery looking to uncover a brand new threat. This will tie directly into the other titles in the High Republic saga including the upcoming novel from Cavan Scott, The Rising Storm. Trial of Shadows is being written by Daniel José Older with art by David Wachter.

The noir-style mystery will unfold after the shocking events of the Republic Fair and introduce new key HIGH REPUBLIC players such as Sian Holt and Jedi Emerick Caphtor, two detectives tasked with uncovering the source of a strange new threat that could bring darkness to the Jedi Order’s golden age.

Sharing his excitement for the comic, Older said:

There are so many weird and terrifying threads to unravel here, and David Wachter’s excellent art fits the mood, urgency, and depth of this story perfectly. I am beyond excited to be working on this thrilling, creepy, delightful story.

Trial of Shadows #1 will be available to read in October and feature a main cover by David López and a variant by Ario Annindito and Rachelle Rosenberg. You can see Anindito’s variant cover below.
