Dearest, darlingest Lucasfilm and Star Wars,

Thank you for waiting for a slow comics week to release this. We know this factored greatly into your decision. :P

Seriously though- what a ride! Between Aphra #4 and this trailer we're gonna have a fun show Wednesday night!

Run, don't walk to your local comic shop tomorrow for Tales of the Nightlands #1 from @darkhorse.com by @cavan.bsky.social, @sooleedraws.bsky.social and @ffrancavilla.bsky.social!

Our one gripe with it is that it's only going three issues. We already want more!

Look: we're not saying @charlessoule.bsky.social is trying to start a fuss with today's #LegacyOfVader comic.

We're not not saying it either.

maybe they repackage or rebrand the Qui-Gon book.

It's too bad- it's a strong concept, and the Qui-Gon book was great. But if it doesn't work for them internally then it doesn't work. No shame in admitting that. It's not like they're cutting off a story partway (coughMarvelcoughThrawnAlliances)

I'm of two minds on this, and will likely be for a while:
1) As always, take the time to get things right, and find the best release window.
2) But this has been so ridiculous. I wouldn't be surprised if they cancel the rest of the series and this book doesn't see the light of day.

Well, it's hard to read comic books in a dark theatre
