But for Jack to fully understand this secret, he must revisit his pastand finally tell his story.Jacks story, however, isnt the only one to be reopened; an old enemy whose chapter we thought closed will reappear and with him bring a darkness and destruction that will test the Guardians like never before. Its a battle of superlativesthe worse fighting the greatest, but where, oh where, is Jack?
