Star Wars Comics March 2020 Solicitations

Star Wars Comics March 2020 Solicitations

I’m posting these March 2020 Star Wars comics solicitations a few days late because these kind of snuck up on me, though I’m not quite sure how, between a couple comic issues, a new The Mandalorian, and some little film called The Rise of Skywalker all coming out really, really close to one another; I won’t let it happen again, though (until maybe 2022 when the next film comes out). March will see the release of TROS‘ novelization and the end of the already epic The Rise of Kylo Ren mini, fitting if you’ve seen the film, while we’re set to be introduced to a new series called Bounty Hunters, while the third volume of Darth Vader might find him running into a surviving handmaiden of a certain important woman from his past. Read on to find out what’s all ahead! Continue reading “Star Wars Comics March 2020 Solicitations”

Star Wars Comics January 2020 Solicitations

January is a time for new beginnings and all those important resolutions we love to make, like watching more Star Wars…but on a treadmill. It’s also a time of uncertainty for what’s ahead, as we don’t quite know what’s next for the Star Wars Saga after The Rise of Skywalker brings the Skywalker part of it to an end (and if the epic trailer from Monday is anything to go by, it’s going be a brave new galaxy), but we at least get our first glimpses of Marvel’s relaunching efforts in 2020 and beyond with today’s solicitations.
