Synopsis:
This book collects together the following issues from the
Union series by Dark Horse Comics:
- Issue 1:
Though the New Republic is thriving, there are still many who
remain true to the spirit and evil designs of Emperor Palpatine.
So when Luke Skywalker, the New Republic's greatest hero and
sole Jedi master, decides to marry Mara Jade, the woman who was
formerly Emperor Palpatine's personal assassin and executor of
the Empire's will, you can be sure that somebody is going to
raise their hands in protest!
- Issue 2:
As the wedding approaches, Luke Skywalker has a troubling
vision: somewhere in their future, a dark hand is grasping at
him and his new wife, Mara Jade. But nothing can shake the young
Jedi Knight's resolve, not a solemn ceremony of Jedi accepting
the Union, nor even a night of carousing and revelry deep within
the city canyons of Coruscant.
- Issue 3:
As Luke and Mara gather their friends about them and prepare
to share their vows, another vow is also closer to being
fulfilled: Imperial Moff Takkar pledges the destruction of this
wedding, a travesty and an insult to the memory of the
once-great Empire!
- Issue 4:
Wedding Day! But as the guests are taking their places, the
Imperial's disruption of the festivities begins! Swoop riders
are raiding the building and a madman with a vest-full of
explosives is threatening to take the entire building down! Who
can save the saviors of the galaxy?
