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”
The idea for the original From a Certain Point of View garnered tons of attention for its nearly endless possibilities to reshape such classic films, giving them new life even 40 years after their debut. Thankfully it seems to be a tradition, at least for now since the prequels won’t have the opportunity for another 20 years (and let’s not even talk about how old I’d be when the sequels would hit the milestone…), to take the original trilogy films and retell them from new, interesting, and unexpected points of view, which brings us to From a Certain Point of View: The Empire Strikes Back. Stronger across the board in its stories, with more consistently engaging tales and original or surprising points of view, and a far more coherent structure from one tale to next, From a Certain Point of View: The Empire Strikes Back does not fall short of its source material, doing it justice by being such a great and memorable sequel.

Star Wars Adventures #1 (Vol. 2) is a relaunch of the all-ages IDW series, which originally began in 2017, and it begins by focusing on the era between The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker, putting the sequel trilogy’s heroes front and center. The backup stories return, but for now the Graf family is taking a break from telling tales and we’re getting villainous-led tales instead for now.

October feels so far away, but I’m very anxious for it to come as not only does The Mandalorian’s second season arrive, Star Wars Squadrons will be out, and it’s my birthday month, but I’m getting married (finger’s crossed we don’t have to postpone we did, unfortunately)! There’s still even a honeymoon to be had, so I might miss out on some of the Star Wars goodies in October, of which the comics have quite a few great issues ahead, so check them out below!
