As we prepare for the 8-issue adaptation of the debut season of Ahsoka in July, it’s worth remembering that 47 years have passed since the first Star Wars adaptation. Adaptations are the backbone of everything Marvel have produced in the GFFA, so this series from writer Rodney Barnes and artists Steven Cummings and George Jeanty is definitely one to watch
The 8-issue miniseries is written by Rodney Barnes with pencils from Steven Cummings and Georges Jeanty, following the story of each episode from the first season. Season 2 is currently in development.
“It is truly an honor to be adapting Ahsoka,” Barnes tells StarWars.com. “The character is the essence of classic Star Wars: layered, complex and fun! I hope the fans enjoy this adaptation as much as the series it’s adapted from.”
Plus, today we have your first look at the cover for issue #1 by David Nakayama, variant covers from Annie Wu and Jan Duuresma, and the official description.
