At the Lucasfilm Publishing: Star Wars: Stories From a Galaxy Far, Far Away panel at New York Comic Con, attendees learned about an all-new ongoing Star Wars comic series coming this March from Marvel Comics as part of their next phase of Star Wars comics, Star Wars: Jedi Knights from Marc Guggenheim and Madibek Musabekov.

"Marvel's first series focusing on the guardians of peace and justice in the galaxy will be brought to you by Emmy Award-winning screenwriter and acclaimed Star Wars comics writer Marc Guggenheim (Star Wars: Han Solo & Chewbacca, Star Wars: Yoda) and drawn by rising star artist Madibek Musabekov (Star Wars, X-Men Red). "Taking place before The Phantom Menace, STAR WARS: JEDI KNIGHTS stars the Jedi Order as fans came to know it during the Prequel Trilogy including legendary characters like Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, Count Dooku, Mace Windu, and many more. In addition to featuring iconic and fan-favorite Jedi, the series will introduce all new Jedi characters that served the Republic during this pivotal era. Each issue will spotlight a different Jedi duo on a different mission throughout the galaxy, but an overarching threat binds them together. Who is the mysterious new villain targeting Qui-Gon Jinn for death and how will it force the Jedi Order to evolve for a new age? Marc and Madibek deliver a blockbuster first issue with a cliffhanger that kicks off one action-packed issue after another featuring your favorite Jedi," Editor Mark Paniccia teased. "You've literally never seen so much lightsaber action in a comic book!"

Bro whose decision was it to put Yaddle front and center on that promo art

She's only little, so if she wasn't at the front you wouldn't see her.

I'm always excited to see Yaddle in something until I SEE Yaddle in something. Yoda with long hair is just super concerning to see.
