Five issues inside Shadow Wing, an elite Imperial TIE squadron in the closing stretch of the Galactic Civil War, told entirely from the cockpit of the people the films ask you to cheer against.
Five issues published between 17 April and 21 August 2019, written by Jody Houser with art by Rogê Antônio. It was published as a companion to Alexander Freed’s Alphabet Squadron novel and introduces the Shadow Wing pilots from it.
