Rebellion 4: My Brother, My Enemy, Part 4 represented the fourth installment within the comic book series titled Star Wars: Rebellion.
During an attempt to persuade his childhood friend, Imperial officer Janek “Tank” Sunber, to join the Rebellion, Luke Skywalker finds himself confronted by a squad of stormtroopers. Could it be that the Empire discovered Tank's defection plan before his escape? Or are these troopers part of an elaborate scheme to deceive the Alliance into accepting Sunber into their core operations? Regardless, while Luke is occupied with his unsanctioned rescue mission, the Rebel Fleet is subjected to an assault—originating from within the command ship itself!
• This is a gripping narrative that unfolds between the events of A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back, detailing the Rebel Alliance's intense battle against the Galactic Empire, brought to life with flair by writer Rob Williams (Cla$$war; SW Tales) and artist Brandon Badeaux (Superman: Man of Steel, SW Empire).
Luke Skywalker manages to evade the pursuing stormtroopers alongside Deena and Janek. Upon his return, Leia voices strong disapproval of Luke's decision to bring Janek to the Rebel Fleet, suspecting him of being a potential spy or assassin working for the Empire. Consequently, she directs Sunber to the Medical Bay to treat a wound inflicted by a blaster shot. Over time, the Rebels begin to place their trust in Sunber. Meanwhile, Jorin Sol engages in conversation with Tungo Li and Wedge within a room. Jorin reveals that the Empire subjected him to torture and manipulation on Kalist VI, programming him to transmit the Rebel Fleet's location and eliminate as many rebels as possible. He asserts that he has resisted the programming and is now in control of his actions.
Tungo Li and Wedge acknowledge this information and reaffirm their trust in him. Later, Jorin enters the command bridge of the flagship. Leia commends him, but he unexpectedly raises his blaster and fires upon several rebels, wounding Leia and killing others. Luke immediately intervenes, attacking Jorin, who explains that his actions were a result of his programming taking over again. Suddenly, a dozen Imperial Star Destroyers emerge from hyperspace in front of the Rebel Fleet and initiate an attack. As Luke prepares to escort Leia to the Med Center, Janek, who has just experienced a dream where Darth Vader urges him to betray the Rebels and deliver Luke Skywalker to him personally, instructs Luke to accompany him...
