Stark Hyperspace War


The Stark Hyperspace War was first mentioned in Star Wars canon in the 2013 mobile app Star Wars: Force Collection. In the Star Wars Legends continuity, the war was introduced in the 1999 Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace Scrapbook by Ryder Windham, which described the conflict as the "Hyperspace Wars" in which Jedi Masters Plo Koon and Qui-Gon Jinn fought. The novel Cloak of Deception, written by James Luceno and published on May 29, 2001, mentioned the "Stark Hyperspace Conflict," although it was not explicitly connected to the Hyperspace Wars.

The Stark Hyperspace War made its first appearance in flashbacks as the subject of an eponymous four-issue story arc in the 1998 Star Wars comic-book series published by Dark Horse Comics. Star Wars 36 was the first issue of the arc, written by John Ostrander, illustrated by Davidé Fabbri, and published on November 28, 2001. In the comics, the war was fought between the Republic and Jedi against the Stark Commercial Combine pirate organization. Jinn and Koon were both portrayed as combatants in the series, establishing the conflict to be the same as the Hyperspace Wars.
