The High Republic is an unexplored period in Star Wars history, set hundreds of years before the events of the Skywalker Saga – when the Jedi were at their height and Master Yoda was much younger, and still training Padawans in the field.
Follow former Jedi turned saber-for-hire monster hunter Ty Yorrick in her first comic appearance in this all-new High Republic adventure by Cavan Scott and Rachael Stott! Ty is a brave yet superstitious monster hunter, traversing the galaxy with KL-03 and her trusty rune-stones fighting the deadliest monsters on any world.
After dealing with an escaped Segredo on the run from pirates, Ty heads to Loreth, where local pioneers have tasked her with taking on the fearsome Gretalax that terrorizes them. She takes the mission but can’t shake the feeling that something is amiss with the Force.
