subjected to a mysterious procedure, Wyl has become a prisoner in his own body,
subject to Raze's every whim.

up the mantle that has been offered him.

Ossus" arc, is scheduled for release on May 23, and features the talents of John
Ostrander, Jan Duursema, Dan Parsons and Brad Anderson.

The Clone Wars have begun, and what it means to be a Jedi will be changed
forever! Taking on new roles as generals, warriors, and even spies, the Jedi

has had more than his share of brushes with the dark side of the Force, which is
exactly why he is chosen to pierce the inner circle of Count Dooku, the ex-Jedi

the shadow of the dark side -- a path from which there may be no return!
