The Battle of Jakku -- Insurgency Rising mini-series concludes with its fourth and final issue, yet sets up the next four-issue tale -- Republic Under Seige -- quite nicely. So far the only thing that's left us baffled is simply this: Who is that Azanti on the covers of issues 2 and 3?

In Ahsoka #5, the fifth episode of the Disney+ show is adapted quite well, yet offers no deleted scenes or context.

No new comics out this week, but plenty of news out of New York Comic Con from Oct. 17-21, including word that Poe Dameron is returning to comics via Dark Horse, Marc Guggenheim and Madibek Musabekov will have a new monthly from Marvel featuring Jedi knights set before the events of The Phantom Menace and plenty of hype about the Battle of Eriadu that's about to go down in the pages of The HIgh Republic Adventures Phase III.

What wasn't revealed? Marvel's plans for Star Wars when The Battle of Jakku maxi-series concludes in January. We're hopeful that more details about what's to come will be doled out in the coming weeks. January solicits are due later this week and there might be some clues there (maybe).

Comics Discussed This Week:

• Not a one

Star Wars Comics New to Marvel Unlimited This Week:

• Star Wars (Vol. 3) #48

News: 

• Charles Soule and Luke Ross will debut the ongoing Legacy of Vader from Marvel that focuses on Kylo Ren. First issue is due out Feb. 5.
• Marvel's January solicits are due out later this week, as are Dark Horse's March solicits.
• The Dark Horse Star Wars comics panel on Saturday at NYCC brought news that Ethan Sacks is writing a Poe Dameron comic that's set before the events of The Force Awakens that sees the pilot on a secret mission. So secret that Sacks would say no more.
• Alyssa Wong is penning a The High Republic Adventures Phase III one-shot that centers on the effects of and fallout from the upcoming battle of Eriadu that's about to unspool through issue #17 of The High Republic Adventures Phase III.
• Writers also broke down some of the elements of Jan. 22's THRA Annual 2025, with Scott's story focused on Baron Boolan, Justina Ireland's is about Vernestra Rwoh (including a Stellan Gios flashback), while Wong says they've written about Driggit Parse teaming up with a teen to take down the Nihil.
• Cavan Scott said he is writing another halloween-inspired comic, while Michael Siglain says the guest-star villain of January's start of the five-issue The Bad Batch: Ghost Agents will be revealed shortly.
• With regard to the Mace Windu and Grievous graphic novels announced at NYCC today, it's worth noting these aren't new. Dark Horse noted back in October 2023 at NYCC that they were among the characters slated to get such books in the Hyperspace Stories graphic novel line through 2024, led by Qui-Gon, which was initially set to publish in July 2024. It's now due out March 4
• Due out May 20 is Star Wars: The High Republic Adventures Phase III Vol. 3, collecting issues 11-13 and the Wedding Spectacular. The 112-page TPB from Dark Horse will retail for $19.99.
• With regard to Friday's Lucasfilm Publishing Panel at NYCC, in terms of Star Wars comics, the series Marc Guggenheim is writing is called Star Wars: Jedi Knights, with each issue a self-contained story. It's set before the events of The Phantom Menace. Featured characters will include Yaddle and a new Jedi who is disabled created expressly for the story. It will also feature the Star Wars equivalent of kaiju
• Charles Soule said he's working on a story about a character he didn't name, but noted that Marvel is working on some "other stuff" that's not yet been revealed or even discussed publicly.

We're taking a step back from our usual coverage of Star Wars comics to interview Bryan Reheil, a writer whose three-issue limited series from Scout Comics -- Milk Run -- debuts on Nov. 27.

It's a great story, set in Philadelphia, about Zack Morgan who can create a portal that takes him as far back as 10 years in the past, something he uses to buy groceries to make ends meet, hence the "milk run" in the title. Yet his life starts to change as he ponders the subject of a true-crime podcast about the murder of two beloved social workers and he realizes he might be able to use his power for good.

Written by Reheil, with art by Jarret Katz, colors by Robert Nugent, letters and design by Rob Jones and edited by James B. Emmett, it's a story that brings to mind time-traveling adventure akin to "Minority Report" and even "Back to the Future." We've read the first issue and, no lie, we're clamoring for the second one.

The issue has two covers -- one by Katz and one by Laura Helsby -- and can be ordered at your comic shop, via Previews World or directly from Scout Comics.
