Star Wars: Legacy 4 is the fourth issue of the Star Wars: Legacy comic series written by John Ostrander and published by Dark Horse Comics on 4 October 2006. The story is set in the Star Wars galaxy 137 years after the Battle of Yavin in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope.
Synopsis
This issue is built on the background story of Darth Krayt usurping the Imperial throne, and Emperor Roan Fel establishing a stronghold for Loyalist troops on the world of Bastion. The story is told from the perspective of an Imperial Stormtrooper. "Legacy #4" chronicles a few days in the life a fresh recruit, Trooper Anson Trask, and the members of Joker Squad. Their loyalty and resolve are put to the test as the Jokers and the whole of their unit - the 407th Stormtrooper Legion - are assigned to subjugate the rebellious dissenters of the 908th Legion. Trask must witness the effect of combat on his comrades and on family ties. Most of all, Trask must manage to evade the zealous wrath of the 407's own field commander - the Sith Lord Darth Maleval.
