• "Guide to the Grand Army of the Republic" (by Karen Traviss and Ryan Kaufman, with illustrations by Chris Trevas)

  Before they became the dreaded stormtroopers, they were an army of peacekeeping clone troopers. Find out everything you need to know about them in this highly detailed guide.

• "The Art of Revenge of the Sith, Part Two" (by Jonathan W. Rinzler)

  In Insider's continued effort to unearth never-before-seen artwork from Revenge of the Sith, we take you through a day in the life of the concept artists in ILM's art department.

• "Lurking in the Shadows: The Creatures of Episode III" (by Daniel Wallace)

  In addition to multiple Jedi, thousands of clone troopers, and an evil Sith Lord, Revenge of the Sith also features some fantastical creatures. Take a trip with us as we explore them in their natural habitats. Just be sure to keep your hands and feet in the hovercraft at all times to avoid any personal injury.

• "HoloNetNews: Republic HoloNet News Special Inaugural Edition 16:5:241" (by Daniel Wallace and Pablo Hidalgo)

  HoloNet Flash: The Jedi have been caught in an act of treason, and efforts to remove their presence from the galaxy are taking place. The new Galactic Empire, under the rule of Emperor Palpatine, is requesting that all citizens pledge their support to the new government and report any suspicious activities. Failure to comply will result in dire consequences for the offender. We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.

• "Posters of Episode IV: A New Hope" (by Pete Vilmur)

  With The Star Wars Poster Book about to be unleashed to the public, we thought we'd put together a little feature to show you what you won't see within its pages, from the film that launched a cinematic renaissance.
