When a prison ship -- transporting a cult known as the Final Occultation -- goes offline, Darth Maul is sent by Palpatine to investigate. What he finds on board is the stuff of nightmares! On another mission to singlehandedly conquer a mining colony, unexpected opposition leads him into an intense battle of life and death -- and Maul learns one of his most valuable lessons! He may be fiercely loyal to his master and a true believer in the Sith, but will a journey to a remote moon change his mind? And why has Palpatine sent his apprentice to an ancient world? And who will pay the price...for patience?

About the Author

Film director and screenwriter Greg Pak's first feature, the sci-fi anthology Robot Stories, won 35 awards; he broke into the comics industry when his agent sent Marvel the screenplay. After writing a Warlock reboot, Pak made a splash with the X-Men: Phoenix -- Endsong limited series and a lengthy run on Incredible Hulk, highlighted by the "Planet Hulk" storyline and the World War Hulk crossover. In addition to the acclaimed Magneto: Testament and Red Skull: Incarnate limited series, a War Machine revival and the retitled Incredible Hulks, Pak has written Dynamite's Battlestar Galactica and contributed to Secret Identities: The Asian American Superhero Anthology. His efforts with co-writer Fred Van Lente include Incredible Hercules, Herc, Heroic Age: Prince of Power, an Alpha Flight relaunch and the Chaos War crossover. Pak introduced Amadeus Cho as a new Green Goliath in The Totally Awesome Hulk and delivered mutant mayhem in Weapon X.

Acclaimed author and screenwriter Benjamin Percy broke into comics in 2014 with a two-issue Batman story arc for Detective Comics. He is also known for his work on Nightwing, Green Arrow and Teen Titans for DC Comics, and James Bond: Black Box for Dynamite Entertainment. Percy has written two seasons of Marvel's Wolverine podcast series: Wolverine: The Long Night, which was listed as one of the top fifteen podcasts of the year by Apple and won the iHeart Radio Award for best scripted podcast in 2018, and Wolverine: The Lost Trail. In print, he is a key contributor to Jonathan Hickman's Dawn of X initiative as writer of X-Force and Wolverine. Percy blazed a new trail for the Spirit of Vengeance with his deliciously dark revival of Ghost Rider.

Erica Schultz is the writer and co-creator of M3, and has written various titles for Bluewater Comics. In addition to being one of the "Motioneers" who helped bring the Astonishing X-Men: Gifted motion comic to life, Schultz has worked on design and layout for Dennis Calero and Todd Stashwick's Devil Inside, as well as Nicholas Dedual's Torchbearer.

Stefano Raffaele is an Italian comic-book artist. After penciling Hawkeye in his own title over a decade ago, Raffaele returned to Marvel to draw both Clint and Kate in Generations: Hawkeye & Hawkeye.

The cult hit Agents of Atlas helped artist Leonard Kirk cultivate a rabid fan base, but he was guaranteed pop-culture immortality following years of work on multiple Star Trek tie-ins. His collaboration with industry legend Peter David in a years-long stint on Supergirl and his role as penciler on Detective Comics during DC's One Year Later initiative further cemented his reputation in the industry, leading to a critically acclaimed run on Captain Britain and MI13. His other Marvel credits include another collaboration with David on X-Factor, as well as runs on Fantastic Four, Squadron Supreme and All-New Wolverine.

A native of Ireland, artist Will Sliney got his start working for small presses in the UK and Ireland. He has since illustrated Boom! Studios' Farscape: Strange Retractors, DC Comics' Zuda webcomic The Symptoms and Marvel's Fearless Defenders. Sliney is a member of the Eclectic Micks, a sketchblog of Irish professional comics artists.
