"After our relaunch in 2006 and the thirtieth anniversary this year, we were looking for something special to kick-off 2008," said editor Randy Stradley. "At first, a line-wide Star Wars crossover seemed like it might be beyond our reach, but after nearly a year’s worth of back-and-forth discussions among our writers and artists, we came up with something really solid. Not only is it a big story that can span all of the eras we’re dealing with, but the events which take place within each era will be important to that era."
