Celebrate the 10th anniversary of Star Wars: The Force Awakens with this action-packed, all-ages adventure starring Poe Dameron and BB-8!

Ace X-wing pilot Poe Dameron and his droid companion BB-8 are sent on a covert mission to capture a rumored code-breaking device that the First Order has been using to crack Resistance communications. If the Resistance can steal this encryption machine for themselves, or at least destroy it, it would be a major win in the fight against the First Order.

But when Poe discovers that the “code-breaking technology” is actually a brilliant Munn girl being held captive, he’s forced to go off-mission. Now, the Resistance pilot, his trusty astromech, and the young girl are on the run and in the crosshairs of an infamous TIE fighter pilot! Can Poe out-fly his enemy, or will the mission go down in flames?

Celebrate the 10th anniversary of Star Wars: The Force Awakens with this high-flying mini-series from author Ethan Sacks (Old Man Hawkeye, Star Wars: Bounty Hunters), Marc Yarza (Werewolf Frankenstein), and Jose Marzan Jr. (Captain America, X-Men)!
