“Star Wars: Dawn of the Jedi” offers a captivating exploration of the Star Wars universe’s ancient history, delving into the origins of the Jedi Order and their initial struggles. The comic series, created by John Ostrander and Jan Duursema, presents a rich tapestry of lore, intriguing characters, and a setting distinct from the familiar galaxy of the movies.
Set thousands of years before the events of the Skywalker saga, “Dawn of the Jedi” transports readers to the Tython system, where Force-sensitive beings from across the galaxy are drawn to the Force-rich planet of Tython. Here, the Je’daii Order, the precursors to the Jedi, seeks balance between the light and dark sides of the Force. This narrative choice provides a fresh perspective on the Force, exploring its duality and the philosophical underpinnings that will later define the Jedi and Sith.
