    "She exists----and she's not going away..."

    Synopsis: It's a fight between brother and brother while Kerra saves the people of Chelloa.

    What's Good?

    The conclusion starts off big, with Lord Odion making an offensive attack on his younger brother Lord Daimon for the colony of Chelloa. Of course, Daimon has something else in mind for his old brother, using a device from the first issue to turn the battle around. But as the battle reaches its climax, a familiar Jedi finishes her plan to save the people. It's a great change of character for Kerra Holt who first started off as a hot-headed person who ends up acting like a true Jedi. John Jackson Miller did a great job writing a way where each main character to try to outthink the other character.

    Ivan Rodriguez shows off some spectacular artwork for the last issue. The destruction going on throughout the issue is a sight to see. The lack of actual lightsaber combat is a bit of a disappointment though.

    What's Bad?

    Kerra takes a back role in the finale somewhat, making the Sith brothers the main focus. It makes her plan in helping the people of Chelloa escape out of unnoticeable.

    While the adventure ends in the comic series, it's just starting in the novel, Knight Errant, which take place a few weeks after the comic series.

    Overall: Knight Errant overall isn't that bad of a series, it was just so slow to start up. I still haven't picked up the novel, but I just might. Depending on the outcome of the novel, I wouldn't mind seeing more adventures of Kerra Holt. She has potential to be well known in the expanded universe.
