by George Mann, Luis Morocho (Illustrator), Le Beau L. Underwood (Illustrator)

Dive into an all-new Star Wars comics adventure starring Jedi Master Kit Fisto, as he explores a distant ocean planet and fends off the fierce beasts that swim in its depths!

Jedi Master Kit Fisto has been sent to the ocean planet Tordus—alongside Mace Windu, Shaak Ti, and Fisto’s Padawan Nahdar Vebb—to investigate a controversial underwater research facility, built to explore the ruins of an ancient civilization. Deep beneath the ocean’s surface, factions debate the future of the station and the giant sea monsters that swim amongst the ruins below.   

But when disaster strikes, Kit Fisto’s diplomatic excursion quickly becomes a rescue mission! As water floods the facility, he and his fellow Jedi must race against the clock to save innocent lives from the hungry leviathans that circle in the depths. Can the Jedi fend off the danger lurking in the briny deep?   

Join acclaimed Star Wars storyteller George Mann, author of Star The Battle of Jedha and The High Republic Adventures Phase III—Echoes of Fear, along with penciler/inker duo Luis Morocho and Le Beau Underwood, for a heart-pounding adventure full of aquatic intrigue and abyssal horrors!

This was a nice, fun Clone Wars story that would have fit really with the series and it’s always nice to see a variety of characters.

Special Thanks to Dark Horse Comics and Edelweiss Plus for the digital ARC. This was given to me for an honest review.

"but it is important that people acknowledge and understand where they come from. history can often teach us a lot about the present"

this hurts after watching "lair of grievous"

A fun little story. I liked the focus on Kit Fisto, as he has always been one of my favorite lesser-known jedi from the prequels. The fact that he gets a Mon Cala padawan in this is cool (was the padawan established previously? I am not sure). The relationship between him and his padawan is nice.

The plot was alright. Putting a Nautolan and Mon Calamarian in a story set in an underwater facility is a no-brainer. I liked the artwork, and the pacing of this was nice for a 4-issue story. Still, the all-ages format of these Dark Horse stories I think prohibits the exploration of deeper themes. While the story is fun, in never made me think or consider.

I did like the fake-out with the sea creatures eating the escape pods.

It's a straightforward, self contained adventure. That alone makes it better than most of the SW titles out there right now.
