With the galaxy divided, the Jedi Council dispatches Anakin Skywalker, Obi Wan Kenobi, and Plo Koon to lead the struggle against Separatist forces in Star Wars Adventures: The Clone Wars - Battle Tales. A new weekly series from IDW Publishing, Battle Tales explores untold stories of The Clone Wars told by veteran troopers Captain Rex, Commander Cody and the dutiful clones assigned escort duty with the daring, and often reckless, Jedi. With new adventures from before the dark times, Battle Tales features fan-favorites from The Clone Wars animated series including the villainous Count Dooku, Asajj Ventress, and General Grievous.
There has never been a better time to be a Star Wars fan! With Disney+ streaming all nine films in the Skywalker saga and the poignant conclusion to the epic Season 7 of The Clone Wars, as well as the promise of a second season of The Mandalorian and the ambitious The High Republic coming this fall, the legends of Star Wars continue to captivate. IDW captures that spirit in the newest addition to the Star Wars canon, Star Wars Adventures: The Clone Wars - Battle Tales, expanding upon the publisher’s popular youth-oriented Star Wars Adventures series.
It is a time of great upheaval. In the premiere issue of Star Wars Adventures: The Clone Wars - Battle Tales, the Jedi and their clone battalions are sent to counter the Separatists’ relentless march across the galaxy. Entrenched upon the contested planet Hisseen, clone troopers Captain Rex, Commander Cody, Wolffe, Boost, and Hardcase hunker down and trade war stories while Anakin Skywalker, Obi Wan Kenobi, and Plo Koon advance on Separatist positions. Having suppressed Count Dooku’s clankers, the Jedi anticipate Dooku’s schemes and set out to wrestle control of Hisseen’s government from Separatist hands. In the interim, Captain Rex regales his troops with a tale of Anakin’s irrepressible heroism and of General Skywalker’s enduring oath to the soldiers in his charge.
Star Wars Adventures: The Clone Wars - Battle Tales is a new serialized weekly title that takes readers beyond the battlefield to explore the humanity behind the helmet and what it means to be a soldier in the Grand Army of the Republic. Created on Kamino to fight a galactic war for newly-wrought empire, the clone troopers of Battle Tales prove they are more than an expandable resource and their camaraderie with the Jedi is no short-lived convenience. Star Wars Adventures: The Clone Wars - Battle Tales captures the fellowship and solidarity that comes when adversity is at its height. As Anakin fervently explains to his Band of Brothers in the premiere issue, “No one gets left behind, Captain… You’re more than just soldiers, Rex. You’re men. Men whose lives are in my hands, and I do not take that lightly.”
