Back in 2019, PROJECT LUMINOUS was announced teased at Star Wars Celebration Chicago. For a year, people speculated about what this released would be. In 2020, it was to revealed to be an ongoing multimedia project called Star Wars: The HIGH REPUBLIC. Now, after three phases, multiple adult, YA and junior novels, countless comic books, some short stories, a couple of manga, the Young Jedi Adventures animated series, an appearance in the video game Jedi: Survivor, this ambitious publishing initiative has come to an end with Charles Soule's Trials Of The Jedi. After all this, was The High Republic a satisfying journey?
To help answer this question, Laura Kelly from Force Toast, and Alex Damon from Star Wars Explained have joined us! We take a look back at this luminous journey from Phase 1 to Phase 3 (and all the Waves in between), and discuss what worked, what didn't work, and the potential stories for Phase More!
