Ahead of the Lucasfilm Publishing Panel at New York Comic Con – which kicks off tomorrow – take a look at this, a five-part mini series from a story by Dave Filoni, written by Rodney Barnes, with covers by Phil Noto and interior art by Andrea Di Vito. This is Star Wars: Ahsoka – Escape From Thrawn, it arrives 20th January 2027 (just in time for the second season to land on Disney Plus), is set between the first and second seasons and is a very welcome and unexpected announcement.
We still remember the emotional reunion of Hera Syndulla and Ezra Bridger in Star Wars: Ahsoka Season 1.
Hera could barely believe her eyes as the trooper removed his helmet just after arriving on Home One in a stolen ETA-Class shuttle disguised as one of Grand Admiral Thrawn’s terrifying Night Troopers. With a simple greeting — “Hi Hera, I’m home.” — Ezra Bridger had finally returned from a galaxy far, far away.

AN ALL-NEW ADVENTURE BASED ON A STORY BY SERIES CREATOR DAVE FILONI!
Witness the unseen story of EZRA BRIDGER’s daring flight from Peridea! Ezra narrowly escaped his exile beyond the known galaxy by stowing away aboard GRAND ADMIRAL THRAWN’s flagship, but his fight to return home is far from over! Hunted across hyperspace with nowhere to hide, the rebel hero must now evade CAPTAIN ENOCH, counter the dark magick of the NIGHTSISTERS, and outwit the Empire’s greatest strategist if he hopes to make it off the Chimaera alive. Based on a story by series creator Dave Filoni, this unseen chapter from Ahsoka is a thrilling companion to the upcoming second season of the hit Disney+ series!
