STAR WARS: THE HIGH REPUBLIC ADVENTURES #1, available Wednesday from IDW, is the start of an all-new series of Star Wars adventures. All of which will be set in the era of the High Republic – a current favorite among fans.

The High Republic Adventures #1 is the first of a new series following Masters and Padawans alike in a tale welcoming to all ages. The fact that it’s set in the High Republic just makes it all the more exciting.

Collision Course is the first arc in this series, and it introduces a variety of characters. From those we know well (Master Yoda) to new younglings finding their way through life (Lula, Zeen). It’s already looking to be a high stakes adventure, which sounds about right!

Book Rating: 4/10

I didn't enjoy this one at all. The art wasn't great. The story was too rushed. I will give this comic series another four issues to win me over. But not promising. I hope it gets better with subsequent issues.
