Publisher summary[]

If you've ever heard of the Knights of the Old Republic video games and comics but didn't know where to start—this is it!

Opening crawl[]

WAR
"PART 1 OF 5"

It is a new day in the Mandalorian Wars. For most of a year,
the rampaging armored nomads have dealt the Republic
Navy one stinging defeat after another. But now, the
Republic's fondest wish has been granted: the Jedi have
entered the war.

Attracted by the charismatic leader Revan, many Jedi
Knights defy the Jedi Council's preferred neutrality and
volunteer to serve aboard Republic vessels as advisers.
Their peaceful role is a sham. They intend to fight alongside
the Navy and its affiliated ground forces—and fight they do.

The crusaders make an impact first in the Outer Rim,
successfully helping the Republic's nonmember allies root
out Mandalorian strongholds. Now, on Essien, they mean
to do so again, leading forces from the Phaeda Militia—a
militia that happens to include an unlucky young draftee
who truly does prefer peace to war…
