SDCC 2014: INSIDE MARVEL’S NEW STAR WARS COMICS

Posted on by

Via StarWars.com:

Marvel dropped a thermal detonator of an announcement at today’s Cup o’ Joe panel, revealing three new Star Wars comics helmed by all-star creative teams:Star Wars, an ongoing series by Jason Aaron and John Cassaday (coming January 2015); Star Wars: Darth Vader, an ongoing series by Kieron Gillen and Salvador Larroca (coming February 2015); and Star Wars: Princess Leia, a five-issue miniseries by Mark Waid and Terry Dodson (coming March 2015). All canonical within the Star Wars universe, each book will pick up where Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope left off, filling in important, previously unexplored gaps for some of the saga’s most iconic characters. To put it simply, this is very big news.

Posted on by

Yesterday, we had an opportunity to meet with William Rawley and Jeff Labovitz from Hasbro and ask them the questions our readers sent it, we got in over 80 questions but only had time to ask about a dozen of them.

Check out the video below and see what they had to say about the new Saga Legends and Mission Series lines, why the carded images have the word “Rebels” under them and some do not, about the 5 POA figures and the appeal of them for older collectors, female characters in the 3.75 lines, will there be a 1st day of issue carding for Rebels like there was for The Clone Wars, more Droid Factory Build-A-Droid astromech figures at Disney, how would you describe the items you are working on for Episode 7 and more!

Check it out below and a HUGE thanks to William and Jeff for the time! They also hint to more BIG things to come, it’ a must watch!
