Star Wars with occasional sarcasm
Wednesday, October 17 brings two comics and a Legends trade collection of some interest. The spooks continue with IDW’s Tales from Vader’s Castle #3, while Marvel has Darth Vader #22. And we’ve got a pretty noteworthy edition of the Legends epic collection – The New Republic volume 4 contains the complete comic adaptations of The Thrawn Trilogy: Heir to the Empire, Dark Force Rising and The Last Command.
Two brand-new comics are out on Wednesday, October 10. The scares continue with Tales from Darth Vader’s Castle #2, which has two covers. We also see Marvel’s Solo #1, the first of seven issues adapting the film.

This week’s big release is, of course, Solo: A Star Wars Story on Blu-ray Tuesday, September 25.
On the comic end of things on Wednesday, September 31, we’ve also got Poe Dameron #31, the final issue. There’s also Doctor Aphra #24 and Star Wars Adventures #14.
But there’s something I missed last week that you can get your hands on – a new version of The Complete Visual Dictionary, quite literally the “new edition,” a title quirk which I’m sure will age well. (The last actual Visual Dictionary was released in 2006, but there was a new Visual Encyclopedia in 2017. The main difference seems to be that the Encyclopedia covers “more than 3,000” items, while the Dictionary boasts “more than 1,500”.)
Two comics and two collections are our new releases this Wednesday, September 19. Head to the comic store for Star Wars #54 or Lando: Double or Nothing #5. For the trade collectors, there’s Doctor Aphra Volume 1 in hardcover, and for Legends fans, the prequel-era Menace Revealed Volume 1 collection.
The week begins with the Solo junior novelization, and ends with Solo itself on digital, with some comics in-between.
This week we have the Solo novelization and two comics. Tuesday, September 4 brings Mur Lafferty’s Solo: A Star Wars Story: Expanded Edition. And on Wednesday, September 5, you can pick up Star Wars #53 and Doctor Aphra Annual #2 (variant).

Three new comics and two adaptations are coming this Wednesday, August 29. From Marvel, look for Lando: Double or Nothing #4 and Poe Dameron Annual #2 (variant). Meanwhile, all-ages imprint IDW has Star Wars Adventures #13 and adaptations of The Last Jedi and A New Hope.
Wednesday, August 22 brings two new comics and the latest Insider. Head to your comic provider for Doctor Aphra #23, Darth Vader #20 and Star Wars Insider #183.
It’s not long now until our next novel, Mur Lafferty’s Solo novelization. We got our first excerpt of the book last week. And while it’s still fairly far out, note that Claudia Gray’s Master and Apprentice has moved from February to April.
This week brings two comics for Wednesday, August 15: The Solo one-shot Beckett (with two variant covers) and Poe Dameron #30.
