I couldn’t help but get Obi-Wan and Anakin vibes as these two clearly have a working relationship that goes deeper than the task at hand. Barnabus Vim and Vix Fonnick have the type of classic Master and apprentice relationship that balances the fun with serious. Claudia Gray does a stellar job of filling in a small yet meaningful story portion in Phase II while introducing new Jedi whose personalities jump off the page. The High Republic Adventures: Quest of the Jedi #1 is a thrilling standalone tale of adventure, lore and mystique. Can Vim and Fonnick discover the truth of the Echo Stone, save Angcord and make it out alive? Something on Angcord is definitely amiss, with the Force seemingly abandoning the world and its inhabitants. As legend tells, the gem has powers of Force amplification and has a dark history with the Sith. Quest of the Jedi tells the story of Jedi Knight Barnabus Vim, a human male, and his Padawan Vix Fonnick, a female Twi’lek, as they arrive on the planet Angcord, on the hunt for the mythical relic the Echo Stone. Rell decides to dig into the Jedi Archives on Coruscant to find answers about the Force artifacts that his friends sought to recover on Dalna, propelling him into a tale from long ago. Written by beloved Star Wars author Claudia Gray (her sole contribution to Phase II), the comic takes place after the events of YA novel Path of Deceit, following Jedi Azlin Rell’s grim discovery of the fates of two of his Jedi cohorts. First announced at Star Wars Celebration Anaheim in May 2022, and after a number of publication delays, The High Republic Adventures: Quest of the Jedi #1, a one-shot from Dark Horse Comics, has arrived.
