For hundreds of years the Jedi traveled the stars defending peace and justice across the galaxy. As the galaxy changes, the Jedi Order along with it as the Order finds itself more so focused on the future of the Republic, from the confines of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, where the twelve members of the Jedi Council weigh crises on a galactic scale.
As a Jedi Outpost, like many before it, left over from the Republic’s golden age is set to be decommissioned on the planet Kwenn, Qui-Gon Jinn challenges the Council about the Order’s increasing isolation. Mace Windu suggests a bold response: All twelve Jedi Masters will embark on a goodwill mission to help the planet and to remind the people of the galaxy that the Jedi remain as stalwart and present as they have been across the ages.
Miller sat down with Comic Watch to discuss his Star Wars contributions and research into the comic industry distribution practices.
