The Star Wars Murder Mystery Rivals True Detective

For the uninitiated, Star Wars Tales was a series of oversized comics featuring short, non-canonical stories from a galaxy far, far away. In issue #17, the final story is “Dark Journey,” and it features a Jedi named Vader Dir’Nul who ignores orders calling her to fight in the Clone Wars so she can investigate the murder of her lover, Ash B’risko. Despite a long investigation, all the Jedi knows is that the killer is named Kareem and, after B’risko, “he” has only killed Twi’lek dancing girls.
