Star Wars #18 – 2014, published by Dark Horse Comics, is a gripping entry in the critically acclaimed series written by Brian Wood, offering a powerful mix of espionage, tension, and character depth. Set firmly between A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back, this issue continues to explore the fragile dynamics within the Rebel Alliance as they try to survive in the shadow of a relentless Empire.

As internal suspicions and external threats mount, Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker, and Wedge Antilles must navigate an increasingly dangerous galaxy where information is just as vital as firepower. With Imperial forces closing in, the Rebels race to uncover a spy within their own ranks—raising the stakes for both the mission and the relationships that bind the team together.

Brian Wood’s storytelling keeps the focus sharp and grounded, highlighting the emotional toll of rebellion alongside the tactical complexity of survival. The artwork by Stéphane Créty is detailed and expressive, capturing both the grandeur of space battles and the intimacy of conflicted loyalties. The issue’s pacing builds expertly towards a tense finale, making it a standout in the later stages of the Dark Horse Star Wars run.

Unlike other Star Wars titles that focus heavily on Force users or galactic-scale politics, this series hones in on the rebels themselves—soldiers, spies, and leaders trying to hold everything together against overwhelming odds. This issue in particular deepens the character arcs while keeping a steady grip on action and suspense.

Each comic is placed inside a high-clarity, acid-free sleeve and protected with a rigid backing board to keep it flat and free from damage. It is then shipped in a durable, fold-over book mailer, purpose-built to resist impact, creasing, and edge wear. Fast dispatch and professional packaging ensure it arrives in excellent condition for your collection.

A must-have for fans of the Dark Horse Star Wars era, Star Wars #18 – 2014 offers layered storytelling and strong character focus, all wrapped in a sharp, cinematic presentation.
