Hello there! Ready to take a look at this week’s new comics and TODAY’s final order cutoffs?
We have a heavy hitter list of individual comics on sale this week…
Heads up: Since Iden Versio’s first cover appearance is on the Taurin Clarke “Revelations” Variant of Bounty Hunter #28 I had been speculating on whether or not her first full appearance would be in that issue as well. Since it was called “Revelations” variant there was always a chance that it was referring to storylines that take place in the upcoming one-shot Star Wars: Revelations #1 instead of Bounty Hunters #28. Well, I got an early copy of Bounty Hunters #28 and she is NOT in the issue. We know for certain that she will be in Star Wars Revelations #1. This makes Star Wars Revelations an instant key for me personally. Check out the preview of Star Wars Bounty Hunters #28 here.
In Star Wars #29 the gang finds a Nihil Path Hyperdrive Engine from the High Republic Era to track down a long lost convoy of tibanna gas and coaxium. This issue is super fun and the cover A buy E.M. Gist is an all timer for me. It’s so unique compared to most cover art we get. Check out the preview of Star Wars #29 here.
And finally, The Mandalorian #5 hits shelves this week with the first appearances of Fennec Shand, Peli Motto, and Toro Calican.
Check out everything new coming up below and get your pre-orders in over at TFAW.

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 10/31/22 this week.
Let’s dive in…
