Dark Horse Comics presents Star Wars: X-Wing Rogue Squadron… The Continuing Adventures of Wedge Antilles. Different Star Wars story arcs were featured using sub-series with-in the series. Various characters, places, and events are further chronicled in the Star Wars Universe… and on to the next sub-series, “In the Empire’s Service” featuring X-Wing pilot, Wedge Antilles.

Now… a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away… Star Wars: X-Wing Rogue Squadron – In the Empire’s Service! Wedge Antilles is the premier X-wing pilot of the Rebel Alliance, and his Rogue Squadron is the most feared in the Rebel fleet. But the Empire has its top guns too – the merciless Imperial 181st Fighter Division led by Baron Fel, the man who trained Wedge and many of Rogue Squadron’s best pilots. Wedge and the Rogues will get every opportunity to test that training when they are dispatched to square accounts with Rogue Squadron, once and for all!

Story/Spoilers
In issue #21, “Chapter 1”, Wedge Antilles is the ace pilot of the Rebel Alliance, and his Rogue Squadron is the outfit of choice for every X-wing flyer. But just as the New Republic has its star space jockeys, so does the Empire. And Baron Fel and the Imperial 181st Fighter Division are hungry to see what Rogue Squadron is made of. Don’t miss the comics premier of Baron Fel, the Empire’s greatest fighter ace!

Next in issue #22, “Chapter 2”, On the world of Brentaal, Imperial General Isoto prepares for a Rebel assault. His goal: not to save the planet, or even the Imperial base, but to save himself. Isoto has the best shield there is, the Empire’s greatest fighter ace, Baron Fel. But having the Baron and having him take orders are two totally different things!

Next in issue #23, “Chapter 3”, Rogue Squadron brings the battle to the Imperials as X-wings and TIEs zigzag among the lofty minarets of Brentaal. More than one Rogue will be shot down this day, but an X-wing pilot on the ground with a blaster is twice as angry and almost as dangerous!

Finally in issue #24, “Chapter 4”, Baron Fel’s wingmen – the merciless pilots of the Imperial 181st Fighter Division – are falling to the firepower of Rogue Squadron. But Fel himself is not down. He has a final card to play, and Wedge Antilles is about to fold!
