High Republic Phase 2 Launches from Star Wars Insider 213



In two weeks we will start our Path of Discovery into wave 2 of the High Republic. Fans of Phase One have been anxious for more info on this new era of stories set 150 years prior than the events of Phase One.
The newest issue of Star Wars Insider gives us a peek into these new stories with part one of a new fiction series titled Tales of Enlightenment by George Mann. This story is titled "New Prospects", and it gives us a very clear picture of the vibe of life on Jedha. 

Enlightenment is a taproom on Jedha that has quickly become a place I hope pops up more in Phase 2. It is a meeting place for the rich and diverse occupants and faiths of Jedha. Through a local Keth we are introduced to a variety of aliens and locals and beyond as he buys a drink for a hyperspace prospector who arrives on Jedha after an adventure with pirates and Jedi.

This story is a perfect introduction to the next Phase which seems very grounded in exploring the locals and activities  of Jedha . I look forward to seeing how the Jedi fair in these outer rim planets that lack a strong Jedi foothold.

This issue also an amazing article by Amy Richau with the new authors joining Phase 2 and a breakdown on the first wave of books.  I really suggest picking up these individual issues of Insider while you can because prices of the issues with previous High Republic fiction are astronomical right now. If you aren't an Insider subscriber try your local comic shop for a copy. Happy Reading!
