This graphic novel collects the entire Dispatches from the Occlusion Zone miniseries, which tells thrilling stories of Jedi and their allies trapped behind enemy lines as they prepare for their climactic battle against the nefarious Nihil!

The marauders known as the Nihil have stranded hundreds of worlds in a part of the galaxy known as the Occlusion Zone. With communications blocked and ships unable to enter, Jedi Knights Keeve Trennis and Elzar Mann have turned to centuries-old technology to send messages of hope into the Zone.

The messages they receive in return tell stories of a growing resistance movement against Marchion Ro’s oppression. Behind the Stormwall, Jedi Knight Qort prepares for war on Eriadu; rebel fighter Ruu cultivates an unlikely ally in the enemy’s ranks; Jedi detective Emerick Caphtor investigates the origins of the Nameless alongside the diabolical Niv Drendow; and saber-for-hire Ty Yorrick hunts Nihil on the ravaged surface of Dalna.

This inspired anthology series pairs longtime Star Wars authors Daniels José Older, Alyssa Wong, and Cavan Scott with a roster of amazing illustrators, including Paris Alleyne, Valeria Favoccia, and Lucas Marangon, to bring you tales of the High Republic on the brink of war! Featuring stunning new cover art by fan-favorite artist Jake Bartok.
