It was created by Ramon F. Bachs, Raul Fernandez and Darko Macan.

It was published by Dark Horse Comics (and by Titan Books in Britain).

The events depicted are set in the Star Wars expanded universe about 1000 years before the prequel films.

The comic books series depicts the apparent destruction of the Sith order, caused by them using a destructive Force technique called a thought bomb against the Jedi but which ends up destroying the Sith as well.

All these events are seen through the eyes of three children from a backwater planet recruited into the rank of the Jedi, one of whom, Darth Zannah, becomes the first apprentice in the new Sith order.
