AS THE PHASE 2 COMICS COMMENCE, TENSIONS ON JEDHA ARE RISING… For ep 126, Mike delves into the first volume of High Republic comics in the second phase, following Jedi Vildar Mac, padawan Matty, the Sephi Tey Sirrek, Guardians Of The Whills, The Path of The Open Hand and more! Mike explores this Jedha-based story, noting along the way how it connects to the rest of the High Republic while providing information along the way – this serves as a perfect prequel to The Battle Of Jedha audiodrama by George Mann (which Mike tackled on this show a few episodes prior).

These comics are in Phase 2, Wave 1 of The High Republic, which is 150 years before Phase 1, making it 350 years before The Phantom Menace (382BBY).

All of these comics were written by Cavan Scott and the colour artist was Frank William. Ario Anindito was the penciller for issues 1-3 with Mark Morales as inker, while Andrea Broccardo was artist for issues 4 & 5 and the Peace & Unity mini-comic.

Other Phase 2 High Republic content Mike has released are book reviews, all in 2023, are; Path Of Deceit on 7th Jan, Quest For Hidden City on February 14th, Convergence on March 18th and The Battle Of Jedha on April 22nd. A review for Cataclysm & the other phase 2 books will follow, as will THR comics, The Blade and other phase 2 content.

In the last episode (125), Mike delved into the second & final volume of the Han Solo & Chewbacca series, where Chewie finds himself in a prison with Maz Kanata and the young Phaedra, while Han recovers from being shot by Greedo. The duo must perform a heist all while avoiding a marshall, bounty hunters, the empire and more – plus Mike gives information on Korin Pers, the Gran & Chagrian species and gives an insight in what’s to come for the upcoming Dark Droids crossover event!

Star Wars: Comics In Canon – The Scourging Of Shu-Torun: Shapeshifters, Saw Gerrera’s Partisans, Queen Trios & More (Star Wars [2015] Vol 9: #62-67) – Ep 61

For ep 61 of Star Wars: Comics In Canon, Mike embarks on the final Star Wars comics written by Kieron Gillen; The Scourging Of Shu-Torun! These comics include another appearance by Queen Trios, as well as The Partisans (Saw Gerrera’s Rebel extremists), Tunga; the shapeshifting clawdite, infiltration, destruction and the death-worshipping Cult Of The Central Isotoper! In the last 10 minutes of this recording, Mike talks about the new Comics In Motion Book Club, what’s coming over the next few weeks of SWCIC, recent guest spots & other suchlike.

This arc is set around 1 ABY (1 year after A New Hope, 2 years before Empire Strikes Back).

All issues were written by Kieron Gillen, with Guru eFX as colour artist and Angel Unzueta as artist on issues 63-67, with Andrea Broccardo as artist on issue 62. Issue 62 was released March 2019, issue 67 was released June 2019 and the trade paperback collection was released August 2019.

Please note this episode was originally released in June of 2021 on the feed of Comics In Motion.

Queen Trios first appears in episode 23 of SWCIC (Vader volume 3) and if you want to check out the previous arcs for the main run of Star Wars comics, check out episodes 9, 13, 19, 21, 27, 36, 40, 44, 48, 53 & 57 of SWCIC!

Check out the last episode of SWCIC where Mike embarked on the first 5 issues of the War Of The Bounty Hunters 34-issue crossover event, which forms “the prelude”! This story takes place just after Empire Strikes Back; carbonite-frozen Han Solo is stolen from Boba Fett on his way to collecting the bounty from Jabba The Hutt and now the whole galaxy is after Solo, including Luke & Chewie, Darth Vader, Doctor Aphra, Beilert Valance, Dengar and many other bounty hunters – this is the crossover event of the decade, so is not one to be missed!

Star Wars: Comics In Canon – Ep 4: After The Battle Of Endor & Operation Cinder

In this episode of Star Wars: Comics In Canon, Mike delves one of the first comics released under the new canon (from April 2014) set in the final moments of the Battle of Endor (in Return Of The Jedi) giving an insight into what the characters did directly after the second Death Star was destroyed, with an introduction to Poe Dameron’s parents, some details of Operation Cinder (including its other mentions) and more!

Star Wars: Comics In Canon Special – Ep 1: Hello There, Canon/Legends & The Rise Of Kylo Ren

Hello there! Instead of a standard episode of Genuine Chit-Chat, this week Mike wanted to showcase his new show; Star Wars: Comics In Canon – found on the podcast feed of our friends at Comics In Motion!

This release is both episodes 0 & 1 rolled into one! Episode 0 is where Mike explains what you can expect from SW Comics In Canon going forward along with what “Canon/Legends” in SW is and the timeline of the movies, while episode 1 is about The Rise Of Kylo Ren comic and kyber crystal “bleeding” – this show is for all Star Wars fans; younglings & veterans alike! Whether you’ve consumed all the content (we’d be impressed if you have) or are just a film newbie getting into a galaxy far far away, we’re sure you’ll enjoy this look into the wider Star Wars canon, through the comic-book lens!

Regarding content discussed in Episode 1, for the best listening, ensure you’ve seen The Force Awakens & The Last Jedi, seeing The Rise Of Skywalker is suggested but it’s not essential and there will be no spoilers for it within – this comic series takes place around 6 years before the events of Episode VII: The Force Awakens; so as TFA is 34 ABY, this comic mini-series is around 28 ABY (flashbacks between 18-25 ABY).

The Rise Of Kylo Ren is written by Charles Soule, with Will Sliney as the artist and Guru eFX as the colourist, issue #1 released December 2019 & issue #4 released March 2020.

If anyone has questions about Star Wars or the show in general, send Mike an email at StarWarsComicsInCanon@outlook.com.

Next week will be back to the usual GCC shows, so if you’re not into Star Wars, check in next week!

Chris & Dave of Comics In Motion were on episodes 63 & 75 of Genuine Chit-Chat and Mike was on episodes 75 & 100 of Comics In Motion!

In case you missed it, last week on GCC, Mike was joined by the powerhouse of hosts from the In The Black Podcast, their chat includes a great many topics, including “the talk” (not the birds & the bees) that black parents give to their children, they then discuss black identity, the importance of heritage, black history month, representation in the media, reparations, the future of Black America and much more, so check that out if you haven’t already!

#75 Pt 1 –Star Wars Sequel Discussion: Episodes VII & VIII With 20th Century Geek, Comics In Motion & VHS Strikes Back

For Genuine Chit-Chat’s 75^th episode, Mike is joined by Scott of the 20^th Century Geek podcast and Chris & Dave from the Comics In Motion & VHS Strikes Back podcasts for a collaborative special for the build up to The Rise Of Skywalker. An in-depth look at A New Hope can be found on both Comics In Motion & VHS Strikes Back’s feeds while our collective thoughts on the original & prequel trilogies will be on 20^th Century Geek’s feed in the coming days.

In this chat in particular, the four of them discuss their thoughts on Episodes 7 & 8 (The Force Awakens & The Last Jedi), regarding plot details, characters, how they compare to the previous 6 movies in the Skywalker Saga, which of the two movies they each prefer, some of the best & worst parts of the new trilogy and many more things! There will be major spoilers for both The Force Awakens & The Last Jedi, so be sure to watch those if you haven’t already!

Next week part 2 will be released where the guys speculate on what they believe is to come in Episode IX including “Bendemption” (if Kylo Ren will return to the light), how Palpatine will be involved, what will happen to Leia, Rey and much more! As well as speculation they talk about what they hope to find in the movie, how they think it’ll compare to the previous movies both in and out of the sequel trilogy, lightsaber battles, crazy theories and enough laughs to shake the hair off a bantha!
