It appears that Clone Wars fans are about to get a thorough dose of nostalgia next week while Aphra fans get more weird, twisted, oddball stuff from our favorite morally ambiguous archeologist.
We’ve got Star Wars Obi-Wan #3 and Star Wars Doctor Aphra #22 coming out on 7/27/2022.
Also Monday July 25th is the FOC deadline for Darth Vader 26 and Doctor Aphra 23.
Star Wars Obi-Wan #3
I have to tell you that this made me so happy to read. First off, the writing is beautiful. Especially for a comic. But also because I simply love the clone wars. Getting a retrospective on what went down (and whether or not they were proper actions) as they were fighting the Seperatists is going to be fantastic for me. Hopefully you too.
Star Wars Obi-Wan #3

THE BATTLE OF ABRION BRIDGE! While continuing to wait out a nasty sandstorm on Tatooine, Obi-Wan reflects on one of his most grueling experiences in the Clone Wars… It’s a memory full of pain and bloodshed, and one that has lasting consequences.
The battle also reminds Obi-Wan of an age-old question he has long wrestled with throughout his life: what is a Jedi’s true purpose in war?

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, best bet is to order it before FOC. Final Order Cut Off is Monday 7/18/22 this week.
Let’s dive in…
Star Wars Darth Vader 26
(W) Greg Pak (A) Raffaele Ienco (CA) Rahzzah

When Sabé, Vader’s unlikely new ally, goes missing, Vader must confront his own dark heart in the maelstrom of a terrible sandstorm – while tapping into one of his earliest skills in a wildly unexpected way!
