Marvel to relaunch StarWars comic with time jump
breakdown
Plot details for the new series remain under wraps, but one of the few teases Marvel has released is that Luke, Leia, Lando and Chewbacca will have a new Imperial threat to deal with, beyond even the constant presence of both Darth Vader and the Emperor: they’ll also have to contend with Imperial Commander Zahra, the “cunning and vengeful” leader of the Tarkin’s Will, an Imperial vessel with a particularly foreboding name.
This isn’t the first time that Marvel has told comic book stories set between the 1980 and 1983 cinematic installments of thesaga; the contemporaneous comic book series of that era filled in the blanks between movies, sending Lando and Chewbacca in search of Boba Fett while Luke and Leia tried to build new alliances between the Rebellion and new alien races. It’s unclear whether or not any of those story beats will be revisited in the new series.
