Star Wars with occasional sarcasm
One comic and a trade collection are dropping this Wednesday, February 28. Pick up Darth Vader #12 or the collected Jedi of the Republic: Mace Windu.
We’re just over a week away from the release of Jason Fry’s The Last Jedi novelization on Tuesday, March 6. Copies have been spotted out in the wild, and “spoilers” (such as they are) are running rampant, so beware the kneejerk reactions.
Today (December 27) brings three new comics, two with significant The Last Jedi tie-ins. First up is Storms of Crait #1, with Leia and Leia on the base during the Rebellion. It also comes in two variant covers. Star Wars Adventures #5 brings us more porg content (also in a non-porg cover.) And then there’s Jedi of the Republic: Mace Windu #5.

There’s plenty for fans to pick up at the comic shops this week. In the shops on Wednesday, November 29 are Star Wars Adventures #4 (with two covers), Jedi of the Republic: Mace Windu #4, Poe Dameron #21, atrade of the Rogue One adaptation, plus Star Wars Insider.
In shops now are Star Wars #39 and the first trade collection of the current Darth Vader series, Imperial March.
One of the more confusing releases lately has been the deluxe edition of Daniel Wallace’s The Rebel Files. It’s available now from Amazon and even has a trailer.
On sale this week is the next entry in the runup to The Last Jedi and one comic. Tuesday, October 25 brings Stormtroopers: Beyond the Armor by Ryder Windham and Adam Bray with a forward by John Boyega. At the comic shop on Wednesday, October 26 is Mace Windu: Jedi of the Republic #3.

Marvel’s next mini stars Mace Windu, and it’s got a very chunky, Dark Horse-style title: Jedi of the Republic — Mace Windu. (Most of Marvel’s titles have been very simple, and heavily dominated by character names, so this is something of a throwback.) Written by Matt Owens and illustrated by Denys Cowan, it’s set in the early Clone Wars period. The cover is by Jesus Saiz.
Look for the five-issue miniseries to begin in August.
