There are two issues left in this run after this as it ends with #50 and based on the publisher’s description we are in the moments leading up to The Return of the Jedi. The gang is planning the rescue of Han Solo with the threat of Death Star 2 Electric Boogaloo looming.

The preview shows that we’re getting more than Han Solo rescue plans as three of the four pages in the preview depict what appears to be a dream Leia is having about the Death Star destroying Alderaan. We see her as a child on Alderaan just moments before the planet is blown up. Reminding Leia and the Rebellion just how important it is that they take the Death Star out before another planet with billions of inhabitants sees the same fate.
My guess is that this issue will involve lots of debating about just how important Han Solo really is.
