Hello there! Welcome to another new comic book day post! Let’s take a look at all Star Wars comics and books scheduled to be released next week on April 2nd-3rd as well as every Star Wars comic or book with a final order cutoff deadline this upcoming Monday, April 1st.

Let’s dive in…

NEW: Star Wars: Ahsoka Season One Marvel Comics Variant Checklist

Star Wars Dad Jokes – The Best & Worst Puns From A Galaxy Far, Far, Away by Kelly Knox and Johnny Sampson – This is a Star Wars themed “dad joke” book. Basically a book of bad jokes. Should be fun to read through. As a father of 3 (soon to be 4) I am actually contractually obligated to read it. Also, I really like Kelly Knox, she’s a great follow on Twitter.

Star Wars: The High Republic – Tales of Enlightenment by Titan Comics – This is a collection of canon High Republic short stories that originally appeared in Star Wars Insider Magazine. This was supposed to come out last week but it appears it was delayed.

UPDATED: See All Star Wars The High Republic Books and Comics From Phase III Here

Star Wars #44 by Charles Soule and Madibek Musabekov – This will be part II of the Trial of Lando Calrissian. Not really sure what to expect but I do love the Thrawn variants.

LEGO Star Wars Visual Dictionary by Elizabeth Dowsett – An updated visual dictionary of all Star Wars LEGO sets to celebrate the last 25 years of Star Wars LEGO. Comes with a minifig. No clue what the minifig is but, to be fair, I haven’t looked into it all that much.

UPDATED: All Star Wars Books, Novels, and Graphic Novels Coming In 2024

Star Wars Toys Coming In April 2024 – Just like March, there are a TON of new Star Wars action figures, statues, backpacks, accessories, etc. set to come out in April.

Star Wars Comic Book FOC Deadlines

For those who aren’t familiar, FOC, or Final Order Cut Off, is when publishers and distributors require retailers to get their orders in. Printers then print according to that number (sometimes with overages). So, if you want to absolutely guarantee you get a book, the best bet is to order it before FOC. Final Order Cut Off is Monday 4/1/24 this week.
