Even in the shining light of the High Republic, there are shadows lurking in the galaxy.
A Jedi mission to the planet Dalna suddenly comes under attack by unknown assailants. As the knights retreat to an ancient structure, it quickly becomes clear that they are far from safe.
Something evil stalks the ruins, a ruthless predator, an unknown terror, a Nameless Fear!
The Nameless Terror gets off to a decent start even though I'm not a fan of the structure of it. I imagine it'll play into Ty's storyline as it goes forward over the four-issue run but a bit more focus and a single time period goes a long way to providing pages to tell the story without feeling rushed. That said, Mann does a solid job of handling the cast we have here even if I'm not exactly sure who is who just yet and which one is padawan and which ones are Jedi. The idea of a remote crash and a kind of Enemy Mine situation with groups looks like it could be interesting and I'm curious as to what has been unleashed. I don't expect a full-on horror story or anything but you can tell that the hunt is definitely on and the potential for loss is definitely there. Read Full Review
