Hey hey! Let’s take a look at all Star Wars comics and books scheduled to be released next week on May 22nd as well as every Star Wars comic or book with a final order cutoff deadline this upcoming Monday, May 20th.
Lighter week than normal this week.
NEW: Darth Ravi to Appear in Star Wars: The High Republic Adventures – Echoes of Fear #1
Star Wars #46 by Charles Soule and Madibek Musabekov – I’ll be honest. For the first time in a while I’m behind on my Star Wars comics. As I began to write this I realized that I never actually read Star Wars #45 from last month. Shame on me. I’ll get caught up tonight. But from what I can tell from the description of this issue it sounds like Lando is attempting to clear his name by working with Mon Mothma and the Rebels on a mission. That’s what is going down in this issue. What that mission is? No clue at the moment.

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 5/20/24 this week.
