Star Wars The Old Repulic - The Lost Suns #3 cover

Star Wars: The Old Republic – The Lost Suns is a Star Wars comic book based upon the LucasArts online game, Star Wars: The Old Republic (developed by BioWare).  The comic book series is set over 36 centuries before the events depicted in the original Star Wars film.  The war between the Galactic Republic and Sith Empire ended with a Republic victory, but the Sith gained control of seven star systems

Agent Theron Shan, a spy working for the Republic’s Strategic Information Service (S.I.S.), reunites with the long-missing Jedi Ngani Zho.  Zho trained Theron’s mother, Satele Shan, and was once Theron’s guardian.  Zho and Teff’ith, a female Twi’lek Theron captured, join the young S.I.S. agent on a mission to discover the secrets of Darth Mekhis, an old enemy of Satele’s.

As Star Wars: The Old Republic – The Lost Suns #3 opens, the three, by hook and crook, enter Imperial space.  They gain entry into the Vesla star system and set up S.I.S. spy rays and telescopes.  What Theron discovers is beyond anything he expected.

THE LOWDOWN:  Because this third issue of Star Wars: The Old Republic – The Lost Suns focuses on infiltration and espionage, it is the most tension-filled issue to date.  Also, the narrative grows more suspenseful as it draws the reader into the secrets of Ngani Zho’s past.  The last few pages race towards an exciting cliffhanger.  This was the put-up or shut up issue for The Lost Suns; it put up.

POSSIBLE AUDIENCE:  Practically everyone who reads Star Wars comic books will want Star Wars: The Old Republic – The Lost Suns.
