Act III of the 'Star Wars: The Old Republic' Webcomic In Full Swing

Act III of the Star Wars The Old Republic online webcomic 'SWTOR: Threat of Peace' is well underway on the official SWTOR website. The act is titled "Uncertain Surrender", and the first two issues have already been released. Here's a description of what's in store directly from the SWTOR website:

"Despite the efforts of the Jedi, a rash of recent violence threatens to overturn the Treaty of Coruscant. After the destruction of the Envoy diplomatic ship, the killing of Jedi Grand Master Zym, and the bombing of the Senate Tower, many Republic leaders are calling for a return to war with the Empire. At the same time, Republic military officials in the Outer Rim continue to ignore the treaty and resist withdrawal orders from the Senate. On Korriban, the prospects for peace are in similar jeopardy. The attempted assassination of Lord Baras and the bombing of an Imperial transport have made Sith Leaders suspicious of one another’s true motives. Fortunately, there is still hope. Republic leaders have identified the infamous Bounty Hunter Braden as the chief suspect in the recent attacks, and the Senate has dispatched Jedi Master Orgus Din to track the Bounty Hunter down…"

The first two acts of the story, comprised of 18 issues, are still posted so readers can catch up with the action so far.

The webcomic is a collaboration between LucasArts, Bioware and Dark Horse Comics.
