Star Wars: The High Republic – Fear of the Jedi is a five-issue comic book miniseries published by Marvel Comics as part of the Star Wars: The High Republic multimedia project. It marks the galaxy-shattering final arc of Phase III (set approximately 150 years before The Phantom Menace), exploring the intensifying conflict between the Jedi Order and the marauding Nihil raiders. The story delves into themes of fear, sacrifice, and the erosion of the Jedi’s golden age amid escalating war in the Nihil Occlusion Zone. Written by New York Times bestselling author Cavan Scott (known for Star Wars: The Rising Storm and Venom), with art by Marika Cresta (Doctor Aphra, Captain Carter) and colors by Jim Campbell, the series features covers by Phil Noto.
This miniseries ties together elements from previous High Republic novels, comics, and audio dramas, including a guest appearance by Jedi Master Kelnacca (the Wookiee from The Acolyte). It focuses on Jedi Master Keeve Trennis, a fan-favorite character from earlier High Republic comics, as she confronts personal and galactic threats that will forever alter her path.
