They defend themselves against the laser blasts and even two homing missiles, which they both manage to turn against the droid in their own style.

Master Tiin lets Mace know that their debate is settled. Neither the broadsword nor the rapier won. It was the Jedi!

This series is presented in digest size comic books which are smaller than the average comic, at about 5 ¼" x 7 ½". It is based on the art and design style of Genndy Tartakovsky's animated Clone Wars series that ran on the Cartoon Network.
According to the inside cover, the events in this issue takes place 5 months after the Battle of Geonosis.
The Fillbach Bothers as listed in the credits are named Matt and Shawn Fillbach.
Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker are on the night planet Nivek, investigating the potential of hidden Confederacy weapons when they are attacked by the Nightmen, an insect-like race of creatures. The Shadowmen are completely invisible and proceed to inflict harm on the Jedi.
They are backed up against a large tar lake and have to work their way around dodging the sonic blasters. Anakin becomes fed up and unleashes a rock storm with his Force powers, but only proceeds to damage some local vegetation.
Obi-Wan counsels Anakin on his anger, but is grabbed by a pack of Shadowmen. Anakin becomes very angry now, lashing out with his lightsaber, slicing an occasional Shadowman.
Feeling surrounded by the creatures, Obi-Wan comes to the realization that their eyes are deceiving them and they need to use the Force. Tying pieces of their robes around their eyes as blindfolds, they are able to use the Force to sense the creatures, and cut them down with their lightsabers.
Anakin then hears something and makes his way over part of the tar lake, Obi-Wan following. They have discovered the Confederacy headquarters. The Jedi race up the steps, slicing down battle droids, and plant an explosive inside the facility.
They make their way back out just as the building explodes. Obi-Wan congratulates them on completing their mission, but reminds Anakin that it will be dark again soon as they depart for their ships.
