Another month of comic solicitations, another month where Legacy of Vader is front and center. Coming this November to comic book shelves, Kylo Ren ventures to Mustafar, where he battles his demons. What happens when he faces the Force Ghosts of Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker? Elsewhere in Star Wars comics, the New Republic battles an uprising, Han and Chewie get closer to finding the Millennium Falcon, the Nightlander comes to terrorize the Resistance, Boba Fett’s past returns, and the secret of Corlis Rath is finally revealed. At the time of writing, Doctor Aphra: Chaos Agent appears to be taking a month off.
Before we go further, here are a few recent things in the galaxy of Star Wars comics you may have missed:
Disney and Webtoon have come to a new agreement, bringing potentially over 100 existing and new titles to the webcomic platform. While this includes Marvel’s 2015 Star Wars run, it is unclear if new Star Wars titles are on the way. Webtoon is set to reveal more during New York Comic Con in October.Unlettered previews for September debut issues: Han Solo: Hunt for the Falcon & Boba Fett: Black, White & Red
Now, looking ahead to November, check with your local comic book shop about what pre-order options they have available (or you can be boring and choose digital). You can visit here for a refresher on what else is coming from Star Wars comics. As a reminder, the very nature of comic solicitations is spoiler-filled, so be aware before going forward.
