Star Wars: Mace Windu #1 by Marc Bernardin and Georges Jeanty comes out “soon” and today we get a sneak peek into the issue with a 6-page preview from Marvel Comics!
I say “soon” because Penguin Random House has it listed as coming out on February 7th but in a recent post on starwars.com they reference January 31st as the release date. I’m sure that will clear up in the next day or so. Not sure what’s going on there.

The preview doesn’t show us much. Only that when Mace Windu was younger he escaped from a prison located at the bottom of the ocean on a moon called Devshi. I do know that there will be a new character named Azita Cruuz. My guess is that she’s some kind of scoundrel type character who develops an uneasy friendship with Mace Windu and the end up working together.
Fits right into the Star Wars model.
