This is some heavy shit. Just all around no happy stories here. It’s been a great read. Dark themes all around. Some good Vader stuff too. I know it’s not canon but I enjoy the legends material a lot. Anyone else checked these out?
Picked up the Black Series figure because of the comic connection. SW#8 was his First Appearance.
I'm not a big comic book reader, I've only read the 2017 Darth Vader run and a few miniseries here and there (lando, maul, that fallen order one etc.) I haven't read any other major star wars, darth vader and aphra runs (2015 & 2020), neither that bounty hunter one.
However, I'm a sucker for all things syndicate related and I would really like to read all things where Crimson Dawn appears, which I understand are parts of the major 2020 runs + crossover events and later miniseries . Will I be lost if I jump straight into the Crimson Dawn issues? If yes, what background/additional reading is recommended to get the best out of the story?
Not sure if anyone has seen this yet, but 1 omnibus from May has been delayed to June, and 1 TPB has actually been moved FORWARD by a week. All this meaning that, somehow, there are 2 hardcover omnibus and 3 TPB all releasing on the same day! June 11, 2024
(As per Penguin Random House)
Now i need to get #19 for his first cover appearance and 1st appearance of Aayla Secura.
I’ve already read all of the 2015 comics but want to actually collect them all, but I can’t seem to find anywhere online to actually buy them. As a Canadian, both Amazon and Indigo have almost none of them for purchase, and I’m not sure where I can find them. Does anyone have this issue or know of any solutions?
Rik is back to preview the final issue of Thrawn: Alliances
The First Order's Allegiant General Pryde's beginning show a man who's loyalty to the empire is just...wow!

Starting to run out of room for single issue comics. I have around 350 that I’ve bought in a small time frame, and I’ve been thinking about switching out to TPB comics. I’ll keep my favourite variant covers and such, but was wondering if people prefer trades over single / back issues. I’m starting to think reading trades is the best version of reading comics. Is selling my singles in favour for trades a good idea? I love the individual cover arts, but I hate how I can’t display them all. Long boxes aren’t exactly attractive on my shelf either imo. Let me know what you do / how u collect and what you would recommend! :)
I have the awesome timeline from Youtini showing the timeline of individual comic issues. What I’m looking for is slightly different.
Is there a timeline out there of just the trade paperbacks? So for example, it would show each volume of the War of the Bounty Hunters event between titles (Aphra, Vader, etc.) before moving onto the next trade in the timeline? Not necessarily the order of titles, but the trades themselves?
Or if someone knows of a list that includes the trades alongside the novels, films, etc., that would be even better!
Everyone always talks about the "All I sense is fear" line buy this comic was packed to the brim with moments like this!
