Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is finally out in theaters and Star Wars comics are as important as ever. Today, artists and writers jump at the chance to work on a Star Wars book but that wasn’t always the case. There was a time when a Star Wars comic was the biggest risk in the industry. It was the longest of long shots (one that paid off big time for Marvel).
From those wacky characters of the earlier years to the revelatory explorations of the Jedi and Sith religions during the Dark Horse years - comics have served an essential role in expanding the galaxy that George Lucas created. And NO, it doesn’t matter if it’s canon or not. Go Behind the Panel on the comics of Star Wars!
