- "'James Bond meets Star Wars' is a shorthand way of describing the series but it will be more than that. Cross is not Bond but the stories will be influenced by Bond, as well as Secret Agent, Jason Bourne, and so on."
- ―John Ostrander
Star Wars: Agent of the Empire is a comic book series from Dark Horse Comics written by John Ostrander. Set between 3 BBY and 0 BBY, the miniseries follows the Imperial Intelligence agent Jahan Cross and his droid IN-GA 44 whose undercover assignments for the Empire take them across the galaxy to exotic locales, filled with danger and intrigue. The first issue was released in December 2011. As of April 2013, there are no further issues planned for the series.[3] On Twitter, Cavan Scott had expressed interest in writing a continuation of the series if Star Wars Legends continuity was still active.[4]
