Updated Star Wars Comics June/July 2020 Solicitations

Updated Star Wars Comics June and July 2020 Solicitations

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the world in many different and unpredictable ways, and the entertainment industry has been in flux ever since.

The upcoming schedule of comics has drastically changed, so the previously promised Star Wars comics have shifted in a big way. Marvel and IDW have begun to reveal their updated schedules (via Florian of Jedi-Bibliothek), so we’ve included the new list for the issues out in June and July 2020 below!

These are uncertain and often frightening times and I want to take a moment before we hop into the future of June’s Star Wars comics to wish everyone well and hope everyone is taking the necessary precautions to stay safe. One of the few certainties left are the release of both the solicitations for upcoming comics and the continued release of comics as well, and today we have a look at June’s coming stories, as Doctor Aphra fights for her life against an ancient curse (so a normal Wednesday), Vader’s efforts to uncover who hid Padmé from him takes him to unexpected places, Boba Fett and Valance do battle, and more!

UPDATE 5/2/20: Diamond comics stopped shipping product in April, but it will resume shipping in late May, with a far reduced schedule for all comics, including Star Wars comics.

Bounty Hunters #1

– Spoiler Review –

A new on-going series arrives with Bounty Hunters #1, taking us deep into the seedy criminal underbelly of the Star Wars galaxy, which follows a group of bounty hunters dealing with the repercussion of a botched mission several years before. I’ve had reservations about this series since it was announced, and while issue #1 doesn’t fully upend my feelings, it takes a big step in the right direction.
