This week in Star Wars comics: A little something for everyone!
The first Wednesday of June is here, and it's time for another edition of This Week in Star Wars Comics! June is dashing out of the starting gate with something for everyone. From Legends to the original trilogy and a heaping dash of The High Republic, let's dive into what we have this week.
Star Wars #47
Lando Calrissian has done a lot of good. However, he's also done a lot of bad things too, landing him on trial with the Rebel Alliance. While his intel saved Mon Mothma's life, it might not be enough to keep him safe from prison. Star Wars #47 is written by Charles Soule and illustrated by Madibek Musabekov, with the cover art by Stephen Segovia.
The High Republic #8
Force sensitive children are being taken, and the only person that Jedi Masters Keeve Trennis and Sskeer can trust is the villainous Lourna Dee. Once so powerful as a Nihil Tempest Runner, can she truly be trusted to save the life of the Yacombe child Sskeer had been protecting? The High Republic #8 is written by Cavan Scott, with illustrations by Jim Towe and Phil Noto on the cover art.
There are also three hardcovers and trade paperbacks out this upcoming week on Tuesday June 11, so let's sneak peek at these titles.
