April 10th, 20180129We learned something new about Star Wars from this past week's comics: Everybody poops. As for news? The Solo: A Star Wars Story trailer came out just before we began recording. Our thoughts? "I've got a good feeling about this." We had good feelings about Star Wars 46 and A Star Wars Comic 14, too. As for March's Star Wars...
