The Drengir are sentient plant-life who are looking to reap a terrible harvest across the galactic frontier,” says Cavan Scott, writer of Marvel’s upcoming The High Republic series. ![]() “As the Jedi struggle to deal with the aftermath of the Great Disaster, a new creeping terror rises from the ground beneath their feet. In other words, pure Star Wars nightmare fuel. Meet “the Drengir”: unsettling, amorphous beings, chock full of tentacles and teeth. “All five authors, as well as the Story Group and Publishing teams, had thoughts on what would scare them - and why - but everyone agreed that had to be something new.”Īnd that “something new” would be frightening in any galaxy. "One of the north stars for this initiative is to answer the question, ‘What scares the Jedi?’ Which is a really fun but extraordinarily challenging question to answer,” Lucasfilm Publishing creative director Michael Siglain tells. So it seemed like a perfect time to ask: What could possibly send chills down the spine of the galaxy’s protectors - during the peak of the Jedi Order - in Star Wars: The High Republic? Halloween season is a time to celebrate all things creepy. In this installment, gets a first look at some of the starring villains. ![]() Arriving January 2021, the story will be explored through multiple voices and span adult and young adult novels, children’s books, and comics from a variety of publishers.

And while it might sound like a lot, it’s a relatively small-time investment compared to the hours upon hours that were spent on Shadows of the Empire (again: that train level!) And while there aren’t any action figures or video games (this is a purely publishing-based initiative), it’s pretty clear that those things will come sooner rather than later. Everything will be out in January and February 2021. Now, more practically, here’s what Star Wars: The New Republic consists of – an adult novel ( Light of the Jedi by Charles Soule), a middle grade novel ( A Test of Courage by Justina Ireland), a young adult novel ( Into the Dark by Claudia Gray) and a pair of comic books – one for Marvel ( Star Wars: The High Republic by Cavan Scott) and another, all-ages title for IDW ( Star Wars: The High Republic Adventures by Daniel Jose Older).

All of the designs have sleek, Buck Rogers lines, and there’s an aura of sunny, peaceful contentment. It’s during this time that the Republic is a relative utopia a bastion for interplanetary growth and understanding. The three movie trilogies take place within a relatively short timeframe, but the events of Star Wars: The High Republic take place long before that. ![]() According to official materials provided to us, these stories “take place centuries before the Skywalker saga.” So this is a long, long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. The first is probably when books and comic books in this initial wave are set.
