Episode #244 -- The Black Angel's Death Song

Sly Moore isn't as sly as she's perceived to be in the pages of Marvel's Darth Vader #14, while Farzala and Qort learn that a synonym for Hutt doesn't include the word "trustworthy" in the pages of The High Republic Adventures #6 from IDW.The breakout star of today's comics is Deva Lompop, a bounty hunter/information broker/socialite whose long history may prove quite informative and interesting (think The High Republich to the New Republic) as readers become more familiar with this character beyond the pages of War of the Bounty Hunters -- Jabba the Hutt #1.In news, there's plenty of more variant covers for War of the Bounty Hunters, but also con-exclusive goodies, particularly Nick Brokenshire's SDCC exclusive for IDW's The High Republic Adventures #6 that's available starting July 23.Upcoming Star Wars comics include:July 21The High Republic Adventures #6Darth Vader #14War of the Bounty Hunters — Jabba the Hutt #1 (One-Shot)July 28Star Wars #15Star Wars Adventures #7The High Republic #7Aug. 4Bounty Hunters #15War of the Bounty Hunters: 4-LOM & Zuckuss #1 (One-Shot)Star Wars Legends Epic Collection: The Marvel Years, Vol. 5 TPBAug. 11The High Republic #8War of the Bounty Hunters #3 (of 5)The Monster of Temple Peak #1 (of 4)Star Wars: Guardians of the Whills MangaDoctor Aphra (Vol. 2), Vol. 2, “The Engine Job” TPBAug. 14 (Free Comic Book Day)Star Wars: The High Republic Adventures Free Comic Book Day IssueThe High Republic: The Edge of Balance/Guardians of the Whills FCBD IssueAug. 18Star Wars Adventures #8Star Wars #16The High Republic Adventures #7War of the Bounty Hunters #3 (of 5)Aug. 25Darth Vader #15Doctor Aphra #13The High Republic, Vol. 1, “There Is No Fear” TPBSept. 1The High Republic Adventures #8Doctor Aphra #14The High Republic #9Sept. 8The High Republic: Edge of Balance (Manga)The Monster of Temple Peak #2 (of 4)War of the Bounty Hunters #4 (of 5)Star Wars Adventures #9Sept. 15Darth Vader #16War of the Bounty Hunters — Boushh #1Sept. 22Ghosts of Vader’s Castle #1 (of 5)Bounty Hunters #16Sept. 29Star Wars #17Star Wars Adventures #10Ghosts of Vader’s Castle #2 (of 5)Oct. 6Star Wars Adventures: Smuggler’s Run TPBOct. 20Darth Vader (Vol. 2) OmnibusNov. 3Star Wars Legends: Rise of the Sith OmnibusNov. 10War of the Bounty Hunters TPB (Collects Alpha #1, War of the Bounty Hunters 1-5)War of the Bounty Hunters Companion TPB (Collects Jabba, IG-88, Boushh, 4-LOM & Zuckuss)Darth Vader (Vol. 3), Vol. 3 TPB (Collects #12-16)Star Wars Legends Boba Fett: Blood Ties TPBThe High Republic Adventures, Vol. 1, TPBStar Wars Episodes IV-IX Adaptation Box Set (IDW)Nov. 17Star Wars (Vol. 3), Vol. 3 TPB (Collects #13-18)Nov. 24Bounty Hunters, Vol. 3, TPB (Collects #12-17)Star Wars Adventures (Vol. 2), Vol. 1, “The Light & the Dark” TPBNov. 30Star Wars: The High Republic, Vol. 2, TPB (Collects #6-10)Doctor Aphra (Vol. 2), Vol. 3, TPB (Collects #11-15)Dec. 7Attack of the Clones Graphic Novel Adaptation from IDW----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Star Wars Splash Page is a weekly podcast dedicated solely to contemporary Star Wars comics published by Marvel, Dark Horse and previously IDW, featuring views about the current week's comics, interviews with the writers, artists, colorists, letterers and editors who create them, as well as the latest details on publishing schedules, upcoming series and mini-series, so that you, the listener have more detail and context about the comics that are a vital part of Star Wars canon, lore and legends.
