Marvel's main Star Wars comic title is relaunching in May in a new era, set after the end of the Galactic Civil War at the dawn of the New Republic. Written by Alex Segura with art by Phil Noto - two Star Wars comics veterans - the relaunched Star Wars #1 will bring the focus back to fan favorite characters including the core trio of Luke Skywalker, Leia Organa, and Han Solo, while also bringing back cult classic supporting characters such as Mon Mothma and Beilert Valance.
The New Republic era takes place after Return of the Jedi, with the war between the Empire and the Rebels ending after the Empire's defeat. These new tales will occur after the Empire's fall, but before the rise of the First Order and the start of the newer trilogy's timeline.
