Long have we waited for the dawn of our comics coverage on Cantina Chronicles! In this first installment of our deep dive into the comics, we review three exciting tales in Sana Starros, Han Solo & Chewbacca, and the breathtaking event series, Hidden Empire… 

Who knew there was a rarer colorful milk in the Star Wars Universe than blue or green. If you already knew about pink milk then stay to hear about a comic book character named Sana Starros.  For more information or to reach out to us visit us @podlingspodcast on Instagram.

Sana Starros' family expands as her brother, Phel must reckon with his betrayal, in an intriguing conclusion to the five-issue mini-series that delves into The High Republic yet sets the stage for more stories to come (which would be quite welcome!). In Darth Vader #35, Doctor Aphra finds comfort -- and a modicum of safety -- in known that only she can help her tormentor to try and find out why his Force powers are out of whack.Comics Discussed This WeekSana Starros #5 (of 5) (11:16)Darth Vader (Vol. 3) #35 (30:57)Star Wars Comics New to Marvel Unlimited This Week:Sana Starros #2 (of 5)Bounty Hunters #32The High Republic (Vol. 2) #6 (of 10)News: Charles Soule's Dark Droids crossover is not just in August, but also September and possibly into October and November, given it's a four-issue mini-series.The High Republic returns to Marvel in October with the four-issue Shadows of Starlight written by Soule and illustrated by Ibraim Roberson.Like #34 before it, Star Wars (Vol. 3) #35 is getting a second printing.

In Yoda #8, Anakin and Yoda put the maxim of "size matters not" to a physical test. In Star Wars #35, the origin of Luke's green lightsaber is finally told in a tale that reminds us that kyber crystals are minerals not miracle workers.Comics Discussed This WeekThe Empire #1 (11:41)Yoda #8 (of 10) (20:35)Star Wars #35 (29:56)Star Wars Comics New to Marvel Unlimited This Week:The Blade #3 (of 4)Han Solo & Chewbacca #10 (of 10)Hidden Empire #4 (of 5)The Mandalorian #8 (of 8)Star Wars (Vol. 3) #32News: Marc Guggenheim is writing a four-issue mini-series spinning out of August's Dark Droids event.

Vildar Mac sees the light, literally, as Tey Ferrick proves his mettle, as The HIgh Republic (Vol. 2) #10 concludes with a Jedi victor, but not without stinging losses.In Dark Horse Comics' Hyperspace Stories #5, a familiar doll proves to be a sought-after token by Assaj Ventress who encounters a pair of new Jedi, along with another pair of rather familar faces (Obi-Wan and Anakin), in a fast-paced story that sheds more light on her dysfunctional relationship with Count Dooku.Darth Vader may be down, but he's not out, much to the chagrin of Cyn, who has vastly underestimated the power of the dark side in Darth Vader: Black, White & Red #2 (of 4). Meanwhile, two more stories feature a ghastly alien encounter aboard a seemingly derelict ship, while a young villager sees Vader not as a villain but a hero.And, weirdly enough, this episode marks our 350th since we began the podcast back in June 2015.Comics Discussed This WeekHyperspace Stories #5 (of 12) (14:02)Darth Vader: Black, White & Red #2 (of 4) (25:39)The High Republic (Vol. 2) #10 (of 10) (42:52)Star Wars Comics New to Marvel Unlimited This Week:Bounty Hunters #31Star Wars (Vol. 3) #31News: Per Diamond, some comic shops may find themselves without certain issues of Star Wars comics that are due out this week.

The creative team has created a lavishly illustrated, tightly written one-shot comic set during The High Republic era that features Jedi, the light and dark sides and adds to that era's steadily expanding lore.In Marvel's Darth Vader: Black, White & Red #1 (of 4), the publisher's penchant for black & white comics finds firm footing in the galaxy far, far away, with Vader the prime subject in three different tales (one of which will anchor all four issues. There is no sparseness in the visual medium, rather clean, precise lines that brim with detail. One tale, by Peach Momoko, will have you forever looking at TIE fighters in a different way.Comics Discussed This WeekQuest of the Jedi One-Shot (11:09)Darth Vader: Black, White & Red #1 (of 4) (32:32)Star Wars Comics New to Marvel Unlimited This Week:The Action Figure Variant Covers #1 (from 2020) collecting John Tyler Christopher's variant coversBounty Hunters #30Han Solo & Chewbacca #9 (of 10)News:The 2nd printing of Jabba's Palace #1 has been pushed back a week to May 17.The trade paperback collecting 2018's six-issue Thrawn adaptation by Marvel will be reprinted and released on Aug. 1.Marvel's July Star Wars comics feature four homage variants that sport classic corner boxes.

After a long wait, Dark Horse Comics's The High Republic Adventures: The Nameless Terror #2 (of 4) returns, and what transpires is a wonderful melange of Alien, Star Wars and cosmic horror as our High Republic-era Jedi deal with nasties that go knock in the night (and day). It's a long issues, at 34 pages, and captures a perfect balance between suspense, cosmic horror and space fantasy.Marvel's Sana Starros #3 (of 5) is a splendid bridging issue that pitches the Starros family's quest into high gear, while at the same time paying homage to the sights and sounds and events of the first phase of The High Republic era, too. Come for Sana's outrage, stay for Deva Lompop's machinations and revel in the reveal of Phel's less-than-honorable intentions.Finally, Jody Houser's three-issue arc, accompanied by artist Luke Ross, comes to a well-paced conclusion in the pages of Yoda #6 (of 10), and readers are afforded a side of Yoda who is well aware of the dark side and its insidiousness, while acknowledging that the light side cannot exist without it.

Hidden Empire comes to a satisfyingly ambiguous close in issue #5 with the fate of Qi'ra's pitched fight vs. the Sith unsuccessful. Or was it? It's an ending that leaves more questions with numerous potential answers.In Star Wars #33, Leia, Luke, Lando, Chewbacca and Amilyn cement new friends -- perhaps potential alllies -- as the flagship comics shifts its focus to Luke's quest for a new lightsaber, while Lando realizes his reputation is more than just a tool to be wielded.Comics out today and broken down on this week's episode:Star Wars #33 (17:21)The Hidden Empire #5 (of 5) (30:40)Star Wars Comics New to Marvel Unlimited This Week:The Blade #1 (of 4)The High Republic (Vol. 2) #3 (of 10)Doctor Aphra (Vol. 2) #27Han Solo & Chewbacca #8 (of 10)Yoda #2 (of 10)News:Star Wars Celebration Europa starts on Friday.

Back to a more manageable haul of Star Wars comics, with the second arc of the second volume of The High Republic kicking off in issue #6 (of 10) as Jedha City reacts to the infighting and riots and the Guardians of the Whills find renewed purpose.In Sana Starros #2 (of 5), deep family ties and history are revealed in a story that stretches back to the first phase of The High Republic era and includes a referential stop by the Solo: A Star Wars Story film.Finally, Bounty Hunters #32 brings Inferno Squadron to the fore, along with a nod to a species that was first featured in West End Games' Star Wars roleplaying game. Perhaps more important, is levels of character development for Zuckuss, which made this issue a standout.Be sure to share this week's episode on social media and, if you haven't, leave a review wherever you get your podcasts.

At last, The High Republic -- The Nameless Terror #1 (of 4) is in comic shops. Was it worth the wait?Yes, very much so.Will it be difficult to wait almost two months until issue #2 is released?Yes, if #1 is anything to go by, since George Mann, Eduardo Mello, Ornella Savarese, Studio RAM, Matt Dryer, Sanjay Dharawat, Stephen Reichert and Samantha Hummer have delivered a crackling debut issue that ties into The High Republic mythology with ease while creating an aura of suspense.In Yoda #4 (of 10), writer Jody Houser returns to the galaxy a long time ago, reteaming with artist Luke Ross for a three-issue arc that features Yoda in a story set before the Prequel Trilogy and featuring Jedi Master Dooku. THey're joined by color artist Nolan Woodard and letter Joe Caramagna of Virtual Caligraphy.It's a well-paced start that gives us more elements of the Count before his faith in the Jedi was lost and features a trio of young Padawans -- a togorian, wookiee and trandoshan -- that echoes Dooku's own relationship with SIfo-Dyas. Astute readers will recognize a key event in this issue from the pages of Age of Republic: Count Dooku #1. That issue has more emotional heft now.Finally, in Doctor Aphra (Vol. 2) #29, Aphra finds herself in an unusual spot: Completely oblvious to the Spark's dire plans. The story by Alyssa Wong, artist Natacha Bustos, color artist Rachelle Rosenberg and letter Joe Caramagna, blends long-ago history with the effort by Chelli's friends to come to her rescue in a brisk story.

Only love can, and will, break your heart, as Valance learns in the pages of Bounty Hunters #31 with his hope for a quiet life with Jyala brutally erased. It's T'onga who steps up to carry him away in a bid to find some sort of peace, be it inner or outer, though it's clear than an inferno is brewing.In Star Wars #31, Amilyn Holdo gives new meaning to "the Holdo Maneuver," as she, Luke, Leia, Lando, Chewie and Lobot find themselves mystified yet intrigued by the No-Space locale and the history of a long-dead Jedi from The High Republic Era.Be sure share this week's episode on social media and, if you haven't, leave a review wherever you get your podcasts.

Years of close-quarter living erupt as the powder keg that is Jedha City finally ignites in The High Republic (Vol. 2) #5 (of 10) in an issue that features several key first appearances and is better understood if you've listened to (or read) George Mann's The Battle of Jedha.Hidden Empire #3 (of 5) ties into events from Darth Vader (Vol. 2), as well as Crimson Reign and the first Lando mini-series as Chanath Cha and the Orphans take him on with results that left us surprised.Finally, in Darth Vader (Vol. 3) #31, Anakin/Vader tries to right what seems to be the biggest mistake of his life as seeks to press the Handmaidens into his -- and the Empire's -- service as they strive to rescue Sabe from Jul Tambor.Be sure share this week's episode on social media and, if you haven't, leave a review wherever you get your podcasts.Comics out today and broken down on this week's episode:_ The High Republic #5 (of 10) (14:29)_ Hidden Empire #3 (of 5) (28:40)_ Darth Vader (Vol. 3) #31 (43:14)Star Wars Comics on Marvel Unlimited This Week:_ Star Wars #29 _ Bounty Hunters #28 _ The Mandalorian #5 (of 8)News:_ Dark Horse will collect IDW's The High Republic Adventures 13-issue series in a TPB due for release in August.

Here's the five things you need to know about Sana Starros and how she became one of the top smugglers in the Star Wars galaxy.1. Part of the Starros lineage: Born on Nar Shaddaa, Sana is part of a family tree that includes ancestors Ghirra Starros and Hosnian Prime senator Avon Starros.2. Claimed to be Han Solo's wife: In the Star Wars comic series, Sana claimed she was married to Han Solo, which she revealed at a cantina on Tatooine. She found him in the Monsula Nebula with Princess Leia, but eventually admitted their marriage was staged as a cover to steal from a crime lord.3. On-and-off relationship with Doctor Aphra: Sana and Doctor Aphra were in a relationship while attending the University of Bar'leth, but Aphra left her without explanation. They would meet again when Leia hired Sana to look for Luke Skywalker and Aphra was hired by Vader. They would work together on various dangerous missions, including attending a dangerous auction organized by Q'ira of Crimson Dawn.4. One of the best smugglers in the business: Sana Starros is one of the top smugglers in the galaxy and has shown her skills in negotiations and double-crossing her way to profits. She sold the same crates of Imperial-issued blasters to both the Krawg pirates and the Empire, and even pulled a fast one on Jabba the Hutt.5. Encounter with Crimson Dawn: Starros and Doctor Aphra were hired by Domina Tagge to attend a dangerous auction organized by Q'ira of Crimson Dawn, one of the galaxy's most dangerous criminal organizations. Despite the risks, Starros and Aphra attempted to capitalize on the mission and steal valuables, but barely escaped with their lives.OUR SOCIALS:Twitter: https://twitter.com/FatherSonGalaxyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/fathersongalaxyFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/FatherSonGalaxyWebsite: https://fathersongalaxy.com/Media Kit: https://fathersongalaxy.com/media-kit-2/Spreadshop (Merchandise) https://fathersongalaxy.myspreadshop.com

Yoda pulls an all-too familiar Jedi move by walking away when the results aren't what was expected yet pulls a humility shocker by returning to the Scalvi people he abandoned in Yoda #3 (of 4). In The Blade #2 (of 4), Porter Engle and Barash play it cool and level-headed, to a certain point, as a siege situation quickly spirals out of control. In Doctor Aphra #28, Sana Starros and the crew learn the finer points of corporate raiding and takeovers as Domina Tagge shows why any acquisition, no matter how hostile, is nothing but smoke and mirrors.Comics out today and broken down on this week's episode:_ Yoda #3 (of 10) (9:58)_ The Blade #2 (of 4) (28:08)_ Doctor Aphra (Vol. 2) #28 (49:28)Star Wars Comics on Marvel Unlimited This Week:_ Darth Vader (Vol. 3) #28News_ Marvel's Doctor Aphra Series is among the nominees for the 34th GLAAD Awards in the Outstanding Comic Book Category._ April solicits are out for Marvel and Dark Horse.

APHRA IMPRISONED IN HER OWN MIND WHILE THE SPARK ETERNAL RUNS RAMPANT! For ep 117, Mike delves into the 5 issues of Doctor Aphra set after Crimson Reign, but before the Hidden Empire crossover event, which features an ancient being called the Spark Eternal possessing Aphra, trapping her inside her own memories with no one to speak with aside from a long-dead Chadra-Fan. While this unfolds, Sana Starros puts a crew together to find Aphra while Just Lucky is hotly in pursuit! As well as this plot, Mike provides further information on Cortosis, the Mairan species, the Droid Crush and more! This story is set after Empire Strikes Back & after the Crimson Reign & War Of The Bounty Hunters events, but before Hidden Empire & Return Of The Jedi. Doctor Aphra 22-26 are written by Alyssa Wong, with Minkyu Jung as artist on all issues and Natacha Bustos also as artist on issue 22, and Rachelle Rosenberg is colour artist on all issues.
