High Republic #7:
We know Darth Krall and Orla Jareni, Jedi Wayseeker, are going to show up in this issue and we haven’t seen them in comics yet. Seems like the writing is on the wall: first appearance of Darth Krall and Orla Jareni right here! You can also pair that with Darth Krall’s first cover appearance with Mayhew’s exclusive cover or Orla Jareni’s first cover appearance with Unknown Comics’ Turini variant.

IDW:
Star Wars Adventures #7:
Crimson Corsair makes his first full appearance here. IDW Adventures comics have tended to push back from initial release date, so I wouldn’t be surprised if this ends up a first week of August book, but it’s looking like it’s coming next week. Sidon Ithano (Crimson Corsair)(male Delphidian pirate), made his first cameo in the Force Awakens Adaptation #3:
Star Wars Adventures will be the Crimson Corsair’s first full appearance and the Brokenshire cover B will be his first cover appearance.
(W) Landry Q. Walker, Sam Maggs; (A) Liana Kangas, Nick Brockenshire
The Empire has been defeated, but that doesn’t mean that the adventures are over for Luke and Leia, who find themselves in a tricky situation that they have to work together to get out of! Plus, the Crimson Corsair and his band of pirates make their Star Wars Adventures debut!
Variants:
FOC 7/26/2021
I wanted to point out issues which have a final order cut off on Monday 7/26/2021. If you’re not familiar, final order cutoff is when the distributor locks orders and the publishers then print accordingly. So, if you want to absolutely guarantee you get a book, get your order in before then.
Pilot of the Vessel, Leox Gyasi makes his first cover appearance on Harvey Tolibao’s Cover A to High Republic Adventures #7 on FOC this Monday. He made his first appearance in High Republic Adventures #6 yesterday.
