The opening sentence: "A comic book series from the The Nineties, this began as an attempt to explain the origins of the Sith Lord Exar Kun after his appearance in the Jedi Academy Trilogy and subsequently expanded into a much larger story about the adventures of the Jedi Knights thousands of years before the Star Wars films." is not true. The original story appeared in the text pages of the Dark Empire comic as something Leia came across when using the Jedi Holocron. The Tales of The Jedi series was an adaption of that story. Kevin J. Anderson (and the character of Exar Kun) only got involved later on.
