Get your jangly nerves ready for Star Wars: Tales From the Nightlands, a three-issue special Halloween event from spookystar writer Cavan Scott and artists Soo Lee (issue #1), Vincenzo Riccardi (issue #2) and Robert Hack (issue #3). Wrapped in covers by Francesco Francavilla, the mini series arrives 3rd September from Dark Horse and sees Scott continue his horror-themed adventures after the fantastic Tales From Vader’s Castle and the one-shot Tales From the Rancor Pit.
On the planet Ryloth, Twi’leks speak in hushed tones about the Nightlands, the spectral realm where their spirits retire after death. According to legend, there are certain nights when the veil between that haunted place and the land of the living is so thin that one can communicate with the other side. Enter: The Nightlander, a Star Wars boogeyman who seeks to possess a powerful, living host and bring despair to the galaxy!
Each issue features one of three generations of galactic heroes facing off against the malevolent Nightlander. Issue #1 sees young Padawan Anakin Skywalker visiting Ryloth with Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, attempting to summon the ghost of Qui-Gon Jinn for a final goodbye. But when Anakin makes contact with the Nightlands, it isn’t his old friend who answers! Issue #2 features Luke & Leia facing this horror, and Issue #3 pits Rey & Finn against a dark power unlike any in the galaxy.
