October 15th, 20190156It's a return to the days of Comics With Kenobi yore with FOUR, yes four Star Wars comics to dive into for this episode. Still, it's not a bad job, if you can get it, right? And seeing as how those issues include the launch of Journey to the Rise of Skywalker: Star Wars Allegiance #1, Target Vader #4, Jedi Fallen Order: Dark Temple...
July 9th, 20190192Beilert Valance returns in a book that's conceivably about Darth Vader but is, in fact, the bounty hunter book we've been craving since 2015. Such is the breadth of Star Wars: Target Vader #1 and how it's not what many thought it was to be. Meanwhile, Finn's past is given more backstory in a story that sows the seeds of his personal...
April 30th, 20190293From Doctor Aphra #31 to Galaxy's Edge #1 to Vader -- Dark Visions #3, we're intrinsically focused on which Star Wars comics thrilled us, left us reeling and disturbed us.

In the third issue of the five-issue Star...
December 25th, 20180322The last issue of Darth Vader Vol. 2 was cinematic in its scope, detailed in its delivery and yielded far more questions than answers through the course of its Star Wars homages from the first to final page. In short, it began as it started: Expansive mythology for not just the Sith lord, but Anakin Skywalker, too. As for Solo: A Star...
November 27th, 20180144Well this episode is certainly ab-solutely ab-tastic and utterly f(ab)ulous without being at all pec-uliar. It's a double dose of Han Solo without a shirt as we discuss the second part of "The Escape" in Star Wars #57 and focus on the budding feelings of ... er ... attachment between Princess Leia and the scruffy looking nerf...
October 16th, 20180168It was a quiet week in Star Wars comics until it wasn't. Jeff McGee and Matt Moore discuss Chuck Wendig's reveal that he's been "fired" by Marvel, the implications it may have and the reactions it's drawn. Also discussed?
