Mike embarks on the final arc of the 2016 run of Doctor Aphra comics; A Rogue’s End including the Epilogue from Empire Ascendant and Doctor Aphra Annual 3. In this arc Aphra confronts Vader for one last time, explores ancient jedi ruins, gets some closure from both Tolvan and her dad Korin, meets Triple-Zero & BT1 with their memories erased and so much more! Annual 3 is a story involving Winloss & Nokk, a peculiar human/trandoshan couple who appears in Aphra 30 and Black Krrsantan even makes an appearance! These comics are set just before Empire Strikes Back, around 3 ABY. They were all written by Simon Spurrier - Aphra 37-40 & the epilogue had Caspar Wijngaard as the artist with Lee Loughridge as colour artist, while Annual 3 had Elsa Charretier as artist with Edgar Delgado & Jim Campbell as colour artists.
