Pride Month Celebrated in Marvel’s Variant Covers this June

Marvel Pride Variant Announcement

As first revealed in June 2021’s Star Wars comics solicitations, and later on the official site, Marvel’s Star Wars comics will celebrate Pride Month with a series of Variant Covers highlighting LGBTQ+ characters! Ever since the reset for canon in 2014, there has been a steady increase in LGBTQ+ representations throughout the franchise, though unfortunately it’s been relegated to comics and novels, but this is the first time they’ve done something of this nature so I’m happy they’re taking this small though important step. Head below for the full Sana Starros starring cover of Doctor Aphra #11 (Vol. 2), as well as the a list of the other characters set to appear!

Star Wars Comics February 2021 Solicitations

Star Wars Comics February 2021 Solicitations

February was one of the last normal months for comics last year, as the pandemic halted many things as it swept through the nation, and while it still rages, in some cases worse than it was earlier in the year, it looks like comics won’t be stopping again anytime soon. However, February is a quieter month for Star Wars comics, as Doctor Aphra takes a month-long break, but otherwise the adventures of Starlight Squadron, with Wedge Antilles and Shara Bey in charge, continue, as does the earliest issues of Marvel and IDW’s entries in The High Republic initiative! Head below for the February 2021 Star Wars comics solicitations! Continue reading “Star Wars Comics February 2021 Solicitations”

Also a beacon of hope? The Starlight Beacon the High Republic Jedi set up in the Outer Rim, as January brings us the official beginning of The High Republic initiative! Beyond that big comic release, Aphra and Sana’s big meet cute finally arrives after being delayed, Shara Bey looks to step up in a big way, Vader and Ochi keep dueling, and Padmé is stuck rescuing Anakin (again) after their latest date night goes sideways.

Star Wars Comics December 2020 Solicitations

Star Wars Comics December 2020 Solicitations

December might usually be cold depending on where you live, like here in Wisconsin for me, but it’s usually full of cheer as the holidays are here. Things might be a little different this year, unfortunately, but you can at least count on some great tales in the galaxy far, far away thanks to Star Wars comics! December’s short but sweet list of comics looks to bring the chaotic year to a fun close, from a raid on an Imperial Museum on Coruscant, Doctor Aphra and Sana Starros stuck together again (it’s been moved to January), Wookiee Life Day celebrations, and Darth Vader facing down a creepy, unused concept for The Rise of Skywalker. Head below for all the details! Continue reading “Star Wars Comics December 2020 Solicitations”
