First Order
Not long after Palpatine’s demise during the Battle of Endor, the Empire he had built finally fell. For a time, the New Republic ruled the galaxy without fear of oppression … until a new regime began to rise from the ashes of the evil Vader and his master left behind.
With Snoke, Hux, and Kylo Ren at its helm, the First Order once seemed unstoppable. Of course, Palpatine clearly had other plans, and it became a casualty of war the same way so many others did. But not before it caused plenty of pain and heartbreak for the characters we grew to know and love.
Still not much is known about the origins of the First Order and how Supreme Leader Snoke came to power. But now that the Skywalker saga has come to an end, and the universe outside the films continues to expand, we can only hope for more stories that tell of how this new darkness came to power.
Until then, there are a handful of books and comics that feature key characters and events essential to uncovering the secrets of the First Order’s tyranny over the galaxy.
