Star Wars: Obsession
Obi-Wan Kenobi cannot let go of the belief that Asajj Ventress survived, and drags Anakin across the galaxy to prove it.
Five issues by Haden Blackman and Brian Ching. It was commissioned to run directly into Revenge of the Sith; delays pushed the last issue to 18 May 2005, the day before the film opened. Dates in the issue table are documented release dates — Dark Horse printed no cover date on these comics.
