We’ve got the origin of The Archivist, Sava Madelin Sun in Crimson Reign 3 this week!
The Archivist made her first cameo appearance in War of the Bounty Hunters #5. She made her first full appearance in Crimson Reign #1.
A couple of interesting variants with Crimson Reign 3! First, we get the first cover appearance of a new Knight of Ren on the Rahzzah Connecting Variant. We also get a pretty slick Black Krrsantan cover on the Larocca Variant!
Then we’ve got the first appearance of a new scoundrel, Khel in Han Solo & Chewbacca #1!

Set a few years before Episode IV: A New Hope, Han, his partner, CHEWBACCA and GREEDO, embark on a heist for JABBA THE HUTT. It’s supposed to be an easy job. What could possibly go wrong? Well, for starters, how about a reunion with the very last person Han expected to see? The last page is a jaw-dropper…

FOC
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, best bet is to order it before FOC. Final Order Cut Off is Monday 3/7/22 this week.
