This February, relive the final chapter of the Skywalker saga in writer Jody Houser and artist Will Sliney’s STAR WARS: THE RISE OF SKYWALKER ADAPTATION comic series.
New York, NY— November 20, 2024 — Marvel Comics’ historic tradition of
Star Wars comic book adaptations continues this February with STAR WARS: THE RISE OF SKYWALKER ADAPTATION. Written by Jody Houser and drawn by artist Will Sliney, the previously-announced five-issue limited series brings 2019’s
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker film to the page at last. In addition to retelling the Resistance’s desperate last stand, the shocking return of Emperor Palpatine and more, the series will include all new scenes not in the final film.
The comic adaptation arrives just in time for the launch of Charles Soule and Luke Ross’
Star Wars: Legacy of Vader, a new ongoing series set between
The Last Jedi and
The Rise of Skywalker. While
Legacy of Vader reveals Kylo Ren’s evolution as Supreme Leader of the First Order and his daring quest into his grandfather’s tragic past, the
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker comic adaptation gives fans a chance to experience the dramatic end of the character’s journey in an all-new way.
THE FINAL BATTLE FOR THE GALAXY BEGINS!
As the Resistance struggles against the First Order’s dominance, Poe Dameron discovers an unthinkable threat on the horizon. As the fate of the galaxy hangs in the balance, Rey must find a way to the hidden Sith hideout, putting her on a collision course with Kylo Ren! With only hours to act, will our heroes avert the devastation of the FINAL ORDER?
“There’s a resurgence of interest in these characters, especially Kylo Ren, Darth Vader’s blood heir,” Editor Mark Paniccia shared. “Jody’s script captures the impact of these iconic moments between the film’s heroes and villains, while the art by Will Sliney and dazzling colors by Guru-eFX give a visually unique experience of this epic finale.”
