Star Wars Comics March 2021 Solicitations

Posted on December 24, 2020January 21, 2021 by Head Butler Ryan

It’s crazy to think March means it’s been one year since the COVID-19 pandemic’s threat was beginning to become clear and lockdowns began, though they ended far too shortly. Star Wars comics took a break shortly after, the lockdowns affecting shipping and setting the industry back by months, but they’ve been arriving in a steady stream once distribution began again. In March of 2021, the Star Wars comics solicitations offer plenty of content to look forward to, from Leia Organa and Kes Dameron swapping love stories, spooky shenanigans in The High Republic era, Aphra and Sana overcoming their differences potentially, the return of the Crimson Corsair, and more so head below to check them out!

Star Wars Comics February 2021 Solicitations

Posted on November 19, 2020January 21, 2021 by Head Butler Ryan

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” →

Posted on November 17, 2020January 11, 2021 by Head Butler Ryan

January is fast approaching, even if it felt like it never would due to this insane year, which means The High Republic’s launch is nigh! To keep the hype train going, Penguin Random House and Del Rey were kind enough to release the first 8, yes EIGHT!, chapters from the initiative’s opening novel, Light of the Jedi, written by Charles Soule. The extended excerpt deals with one of the initial crises due to the destruction of a ship in lightspeed (the Great Hyperspace Disaster), giving us a glimpse at the Jedi and the Republic of the era. Also, the official site has dropped our first look at IDW’s The High Republic Adventures, which sees Yoda training new Padawans while dealing with the growing crisis, plus Cavan Scott, writer of the upcoming Marvel on-going comic The High Republic, offered an in-depth interview about the initiative as a whole and his series. Find my thoughts on the excerpt, the glimpse at IDW’s comic, and some details from the interview below! (Update: THR has begun and our reviews are rolling in!)
