Dark Times—Fire Carrier 4 is the twenty-sixth issue of the Star Wars: Dark Times comic series and the fourth in the Fire Carrier story arc.

Jedi Master K'Kruhk goes to war against the soldiers of a local militia in order to give the Padawans he's vowed to protect a chance to escape. But the Padawans have encountered a new, unexpected danger in the forest.

What's worse is that the Empire has become suspicious of the militia's activities and is bringing in troops to investigate. The Force is a powerful ally, but even a Jedi Master can't fight a battle on three fronts!
